This protocol provides guidance on the appropriate collection of bee specimens or tissue samples for molecular analysis, with an emphasis generating genetic and genomic data while ensuring integrity. Specifically, focuses storage methods, including relevant specimen metadata recording reporting, but does not cover any downstream handling analyses, which vary depending aims a given project study. is specifically designed freshly collected, individual intended genetic, genomic, other analyses....
Internal parasites and pathogens have not been a focus of wild bee systematic data collection efforts to-date but are important to document because they strongly linked declines. Here, we provide standardized protocol for collecting fresh tissue samples generating parasite pathogen data. The emphasizes appropriate handling storage conditions standards. It can be embedded within health monitoring projects or used by individual that aim generate now in the future. This is part series developed...
