The damage caused by Varroosis is thought to be a crucial driver for the periodical colony losses in Europe and the USA and regular Varroa treatments are essential in these countries.

The evaluation of indirect effects linked to the changes in management practices is an important component of EU regulations.

Are wax uncappings suitable for wax foundation? Can contact with acaricides have negative effects on honeybees' ability to resist viral infections?

The palynological and physicochemical analysis of 62 honey samples produced in different biogeographical areas of Algeria was conducted.

Regulation of gene expression in the brain plays an important role in behavioral plasticity and decision making in response to external stimuli.

The rich variety of native honeybee subspecies and ecotypes in Europe offers a good genetic resource for selection towards Varroa resistance.

Breeding for resistance to Varroa destructor in North America provides the long-term solution to the economic troubles the mite brings.

Tetragonula hockingsi and T. carbonaria are two closely related species of Australian stingless bees. The primary species-specific character is the architecture of the brood comb.

We tested the hypothesis that addition of brood pheromone during the winter pollen dearth period of a humid subtropical climate increases rate of colony growth in colonies provisioned with a protein supplement.
