Urban ecosystem drives genetic diversity in feral honey bee by Aleksandra Patenković, Marija Tanasković, Pavle Erić, Katarina Erić, Milica Mihajlović, Ljubiša Stanisavljević, Slobodan Davidović

“…Abstract Urbanization can change biodiversity in both directions, positive and negative, and despite the rising global trend of urban beekeeping, little is known about the impact of urbanization on the genetic diversity of honey bees. We investigate how urbanization affects the genetic variability of feral and managed honey bee colonies that are spread throughout the entire city, even in highly urban areas, through genetic analysis of 82 worker bees. …”

Effects of lithium on locomotor activity and circadian rhythm of honey bees by Babur Erdem, Okan Can Arslan, Sedat Sevin, Ayse Gul Gozen, Jose L. Agosto-Rivera, Tugrul Giray, Hande Alemdar

“…Abstract Lithium has been considered a potential acaricidal agent against the honey bee (Apis mellifera) parasite Varroa. It is known that lithium suppresses elevated activity and regulates circadian rhythms and light response when administered to humans as a primary therapeutic chemical for bipolar disorder and to other bipolar syndrome model organisms, given the crucial role of timing in the bee's foraging activity and the alternating sunlight vs dark colony environment bees are exposed, we explored the influence of lithium on locomotor activity (LMA) and circadian rhythm of honey bees. …”
