Diseases and pests of stingless bees. Author(s): MENEZES, C. As meliponiculture continues to advance, the emergence of diseases, parasites, and pests poses a growing concern. Among these threats, phorids, tiny flies that lay their eggs in pollen pots, pose a pa... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2024
Relationships between stingless bees and mites. Author(s): MENEZES, C. The unfavorable interactions between mites and bees have cast a shadow on this topic, and not without reason. The primary challenge confronting global apiculture stems from Varroa destructor, a mite t... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2024
Frugivory by a stingless bee (Hymenoptera: Apidae). Author(s): PERUQUETTI, R. C.; COSTA, L. da S. M. da; SILVA, V. S. da; DRUMOND, P. M. Frugivory is not frequent among bees. Although stingless bees visit aged fruits for pulp, the use of fresh fruits is recorded only for Trigona hypogea Silvestri, a species that does not visit flowers.... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2010
Microbial community modulates growth of symbiotic fungus required for stingless bee metamorphosis. Author(s): PALUDO, C. R.; PISHCHANY, G.; DOMINGUEZ, A.-A.; SILVA JÚNIOR, E. A.; MENEZES, C.; NASCIMENTO, F. S.; CURRIE, C. R.; KOLTER, R.; CLARDY, J.; PUPO, M. T. Abstract: The Brazilian stingless bee Scaptotrigona depilis requires the brood cells-associated fungus Zygosaccharomyces sp. as steroid source for metamorphosis. Besides the presence of Zygosaccharomy... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2019
Testing the effect of pyraclostrobin on the gut microbiome of juveniles and adults of a Brazilian stingless bee. Author(s): HAAG, K. L.; RAMOS, J. D.; PRADO, S. de S.; MENEZES, C. Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2024
Isolation and characterization of 23 microsatellite loci in the stingless bee Melipona subnitida using next-generation sequencing. Author(s): SOUZA, I. G. B.; PATERSON, I.; McBRIDE, M. C.; SOUZA, B. A.; PEREIRA, F. M.; LOPES, M. T. R.; BENTZEN, P.; DINIZ, F. M. We described the isolation and characterization of 23 microsatellite loci from the stingless bee (Melipona subnitida). Out of 52 microsatellite primer pairs screened, 17 loci displayed polymorphism an... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2015
Radiofrequency identification (RFID) reveals long-distance flight and homing abilities of the stingless bee Melipona fasciculata. Author(s): NUNES-SILVA, P.; COSTA, L.; CAMPBELL, A. J.; ARRUDA, H.; CONTRERA, F. A. L.; TEIXEIRA, J. S. G.; GOMES, R. L. C.; PESSIN, G.; PEREIRA, D. S.; SOUZA, P. de; IMPERATRIZ-FONSECA, V. L. Determining bee flight capacity is crucial for developing management strategies for bee conservation and/or crop pollination and purposes. In this study, we determined the flight distance of the sting... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2020
Evaluation of the antimicrobial capacity of bacteria isolated from stingless bee (Scaptotrigona aff. postica) honey cultivated in açai (Euterpe oleracea) monoculture. Author(s): SILVA, I. C. da; CONCEIÇÃO, E. O. A.; PEREIRA, D. S.; ROGEZ, H.; MUTO, N. A. Many antimicrobial compounds have been seeking to protect the human body against pathogenic microbial infections. In recent times, there has been considerable growth of pathogens resistant to existing... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2023
Characterization of honey of stingless bees from the Brazilian semi-arid region. Author(s): SANT'ANA, R. da S.; CARVALHO, C. A. L. de; ODA-SOUZA, M.; SOUZA, B. de A.; DIAS, F. de S. The physicochemical characteristics of honey vary according to bee species, climate, region, period of collection, processing and storage. In this context, this work aimed to perform a comparative stu... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2020
Correlated expression of phenotypic and extended phenotypic traits across stingless bee species: worker eye morphology, foraging behaviour, and nest entrance architecture. Author(s): SEGERS, F. H. I. D; GRÜTER, C.; MENEZES, C.; MATEUS, S.; RATNIEKS, F. L. W. Abstract: Stingless bees are the most species-rich group of eusocial bees and show great diversity in behaviour, ecology, nest architecture, colony size, and worker morphology. How this variation rela... ... Repository: BDPA Publication year: 2022
