This paper documents the seventeenth data release (DR17) from the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys;
the fifth and final release from the fourth phase (SDSS-IV). DR17 contains the complete …

Viruses are significant threats to the health and well‐being of the honey bee, Apis mellifera.
To alleviate the threats posed by these invasive organisms, a better understanding of bee …

Methods are described for working with Nosema apis and Nosema ceranae in the field and
in the laboratory. For fieldwork, different sampling methods are described to determine …

Across the Northern hemisphere, managed honey bee colonies, Apis mellifera, are currently
affected by abrupt depopulation during winter and many factors are suspected to be …

Elevated winter losses of managed honeybee colonies are a major concern, but the underlying
mechanisms remain controversial. Among the suspects are the parasitic mite Varroa …

Blockade of the protein–protein interaction between the transmembrane protein
programmed cell death protein 1 (PD‐1) and its ligand PD‐L1 has emerged as a promising …

The Sloan Digital Sky Surveys (SDSS) have been almost continuously observing the skies
for over 20 yr, since the project began with a first phase in 1998 (SDSS-I; York et al. 2000). …

Honey bee virus research is an enormously broad area, ranging from subcellular molecular
biology through physiology and behaviour, to individual and colony-level symptoms, …

Recent steep declines in honey bee health have severely impacted the beekeeping industry,
presenting new risks for agricultural commodities that depend on insect pollination. Honey …

Israeli acute paralysis virus (IAPV) is a widespread RNA virus of honey bees that has been
linked with colony losses. Here we describe the transmission, prevalence, and genetic traits …
