We characterized Apis mellifera in both native and introduced ranges using 1136 single-
nucleotide polymorphisms genotyped in 341 individuals. Our results indicate that A …

Here we report the genome sequence of the honeybee Apis mellifera, a key model for social
behaviour and essential to global ecology through pollination. Compared with other …

The Africanized honey bee, a hybrid of European and African honey bees, is thought to
displace native pollinators. After experimental introduction of Africanized honey bee hives …

A population genetic analysis of honey bees of the Mexican neotropical Yucatan peninsula
shows that the range expansion of Africanized bees there has involved extensive …

There is widespread concern about the global decline in pollinators and the associated loss
of pollination services. This concern is understandable given the importance of pollinators …

The pressures on honeybee (Apis mellifera) populations, resulting from threats by modern
pesticides, parasites, predators and diseases, have raised awareness of the economic …

IN the Neotropics, introduced European honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) 1, 2 have been
largely supplanted by bees descended from an African race, A. m. scutellata Lepetier, which …

The origin of the western honey bee Apis mellifera has been intensely debated. Addressing
this knowledge gap is essential for understanding the evolution and genetics of one of the …

Africanized drone honey bees (Apis mellifera) migrate into European honey-bee colonies in
large numbers, but Africanized colonies only rarely host drones from other colonies. This …
