        Bee traffic at the hive entrance can be used as an important indicator of foraging activity. We investigated patterns of honeybees and bumblebees near their hives as a basis for calculating bee traffic using the image deep learning. The flight pattern near the hive differed significantly according to bee at entering and leaving the hive. Honeybees mainly showed flight that changed flight direction more than once (69.5%), whereas bumblebees mainly performed straight flight (48.7%) or had a single turn (36.5%) in flight. When bees entered the hive, honeybees primarily showed one-turn or two-turn flight patterns(88.5%), and bumblebees showed a one-turn flight pattern (48.0%). In contrast, when leaving the hive, honeybees primarily showed a straight flight pattern (63.0%), and bumblebees primarily showed a straight or one-turn pattern (90.5%). There was a significant difference in flight speed according to the flight pattern. The speed of straight flight (0.89±0.47 m/s) was 1.5 to 2.1 times faster than flight where direction changed. Therefore, our results can help determine the capturing and recognizing the flying image of bees when calculating bee traffic by image deep learning.

        시설재배 딸기의 화분매개에 꿀벌 사용이 보편화되어있지만 동양종(A. cerana) 꿀벌의 화분매개효과 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 딸기에서 동양종 꿀벌의 화분매개자로 가능성을 평가하기 위하여 비닐하우 스 딸기에서 서양종 꿀벌과 화분매개행동 특성을 비교하였다. 향후 봉군 수명과 착과된 딸기의 기형과율품질을 평가 할 예정이다. 서양종과 동양종 꿀벌은 10시 이후부터 활동량이 증가하고, 13시에 방화활동이 가장 활발하였 으며 이후부터 감소하는 일주행동 패턴을 보였다. 서양종과 동양종 꿀벌 활동성은 모두 온도, 조도, 자외선과 정의 상관관계를 나타냈으며 상대습도와는 부의 상관을 보였다. 특히 서양종 꿀벌은 온도, 조도, 자외선이 같은 수준의 상관(r=0.7)을 보이는 것에 반해, 동양종 꿀벌의 경우 온도와 습도보다 광조건(조도, 자외선)에서 더 높은 상관계수(r>0.9)가 나타났다. 서양종과 동양종 꿀벌의 방화특성을 조사한 결과 꽃에 머무는 시간은 서양종 꿀벌 이 평균 6.9초, 동양종 꿀벌이 7.0초로 같은 수준이었으나(p>0.05), 꽃 간 이동시간은 동양종 꿀벌이 2.4초로 서양 종꿀벌(3.1초)보다 20% 유의미하게 짧은 것으로 나타났다(p=0.011). 따라서 같은 시간에 동양종 꿀벌이 서양종 꿀벌보다 더 많은 꽃을 방문 할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

        Honey bee plays an important role in pollinating plants. Recently, however, declines in honey bee populations have been reported in many countries, and pesticides have been pointed out as one of the factors contributing to honey bee loss. To determine the effects of pesticides on honey bee behavior, we investigated the homing ability of honey bee exposed to four pesticides (acetamiprid, imidacloprid, fenitrothion, and carbaryl). In addition, the changes in expression levels of genes associated with ‘learning and memory’ (cGMP-dependent protein kinase foraging, Kruppel homolog 1, Adenlyate cyclase 3, Early growth response protein 1, Hormone receptor 38) were examined after pesticide treatment in forager bee. The four pesticides tested in this study generally reduced the homing ability of foragers. In the examination of gene expression, learning and memory-related genes were induced by the exposure to acetamiprid, imidacloprid, and carbaryl, whereas fenitrothion decreased the expression of these genes in honey bee. Although further studies are needed, this suggests that pesticides may have negative effects on honey bee behavior and behavior-related gene expression.

        Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is a key enzyme that terminates impulse transmission by rapidly hydrolyzing the neurotransmitter acetylcholine at cholinergic synapses. Previous studies have discovered a transiently opening channel referred to as the “back door” in Torpedo californica AChE. Previously, we observed that substituting the Tyr391 residue with a Phe residue significantly decreased the catalytic efficiency of recombinant Apis mellifera AChE1 (AmAChE1), while the reverse substitution restored it. Interestingly, substitution of the Tyr391 residue with a Phe residue in AmAChE1 disrupted the formation of the backdoor, while the reverse substitution restored it. This finding suggests that the Tyr-to-Phe substitution impairs backdoor formation, thereby leading to a significant reduction in the catalytic activity of AmAChE1. This serves as one of the driving forces for the functional transition from AmAChE1 to AmAChE2. In this experiment, we also confirmed the gradual restoration and increase in AChE activity by substituting Phe391 in AmAChE1 with Ser, Trp, Thr, Ile, Asn, and Tyr residues through kinetic assay and molecular dynamics simulation.

        The ectoparasitic mite, Varroa destructor is one of the most destructive pests of the honeybee (Apis mellifera) leading to the collapse honey bee colony in many regions of the world. RNA interference (RNAi) is a novel approach recently proposed for insect pest control. However, the efficiency of RNAi in insects is low due to the lack of effective delivery methods for dsRNA and sensitivity to nuclease degradation. Therefore, the success of RNAi technology largely depends on the stability of dsRNA. To explore the possibility of using RNAi to control varroa mite, we determined the effects of dsRNA targeting a subunit of the cytoplasmic coatomer protein complex B2, D, and E subunits on target gene expression for varroa mite. We observe that dsRNA ingested by bees is transferred to the varroa mite, resulting in knockdown of COPB2 expression. Furthermore, we demonstrate that chitosan nanoparticles-dsRNA complexes were more stable for 7 days in honeybee tissue fluids. The dsRNA-conjugated with chitosan was protected from degradation in hemolymph, fat body, and midgut extracts collected from the honeybee. These results possibly suggest that nanoparticles-dsRNA complexes might be horizontally transferred from treated honeybee to varroa mite, in which case the honeybees could serve as RNAi vectors. We confirmed, moreover, dsRNA fed nontarget insects, honeybee, were unaffected, and no toxicity was observed for honeybee. Overall, these data suggest that dsRNA-conjugated with chitosan help escape effectively from degradation by honeybee tissue fluids and could improve RNAi efficiency in varroa mite.

        Honeybees are pollinating agent of economic importance, and a model organism for microbiome analysis. The microbiota plays a great role in honeybee health and development as such needs to be fully elucidated among Apis mellifera in Korea. using 16S rRNA gene illumina sequencing, the gut microbiota of Apis mellifera at four developmental stages under natural condition shows dysbiosis of essential microbiota, especially between the 5-days larvae and workers.

        The adult of honey bee, Apis mellifera, performs an age-dependent division of labor with nurse bees and foragers. Foragers fly outside the hive to collect pollen and nectar, while nurses feed and care for the larvae and queen inside the hive. Foragers are considered to be frequently exposed to agrochemicals, although nurses, stayed inside the hive, are potentially exposed to pesticides through application of miticides and pesticidecontaminated food provided by forager. Therefore, physiological effects of pesticides to nurses should be elucidated to understand the adverse effects of the chemicals on entire honey bee colony. In this study, we investigated the expression changes of the genes associated with labor division (task genes) and the nursing behavior of nurse bees fed four pesticides: acetamiprid (ACE), carbaryl (CB), imidacloprid (IMI), and fenitrothion (FEN). When nurses were exposed to ACE, IMI, and FEN, expression levels of task genes were up- and down-regulated, and their nursing behaviors were also suppressed and enhanced, respectively. CB did not alter the gene expression levels, however increased nursing behavior. These suggest the potential of pesticide that breaks the balance of labor distribution in honey bee colony.

        Honey bees are crucial pollinators for agricultural and natural ecosystems, but are experiencing heavy mortality in Korea due to a complex suite of factors. Extreme winter losses of honey bee colonies are a major threat to beekeeping but the combinations of factors underlying colony loss remain debatable. Finding solutions involves knowing the factors associated with high loss rates. To investigate whether loss rates are related to Varroa control and climate condition, we surveyed beekeepers in korea after wintering (2021–2022 to 2022–2023). The results show an average colony loss rate of 46%(2022) and 17%(2023), but over 40% colony loss before wintering at 2022. Beekeepers attempt to manage their honey bee colonies in ways that optimize colony health. Disentangling the impact of management from other variables affecting colony health is complicated by the diversity of practices used and difficulties handling typically complex and incomplete observational datasets. We propose a method to 1) Varroa mite population Control by several methods , and 2) Many nursing bee put in hive before wintering.
