Title |
Nutrigenomics in honey bees: the impact of pollen nutrients on bee health |
Organism |
Apis mellifera |
Experiment type |
Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
|
Summary |
We studied the molecular mechanisms underlying the impact of pollen nutrients on honey bee (Apis mellifera) health and how those nutrients improve resistance to parasites. Using digital gene expression, we determined the changes in gene expression induced by pollen intake in worker bees parasitized or not by the mites Varroa destructor, known for suppressing immunity and decreasing lifespan of bees.
