Nutrigenomics in honey bees: the impact of pollen nutrients on bee health

Project description: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. bees with or without verroa, and fed or not fed pollen

Transcription profiling of QMP pheromone-mediated gene expression in the honey bee brain

Project description:This experiment was designed to monitor the gene expression changes of young bees raised with and without queen mandibular pheromone (QMP). This experiment was a timecourse, comparing QMP- to QMP+ bees over 4 days of exposure. Bees that had eclosed over 16 hours were collected from a brood frame and placed in cages, 35 bees/cage. 8 hours later, queen mandibular pheromone (QMP, 0.1 queen equivalents) treatment was initiated, and fresh QMP was placed in the cage every day. One hour after QMP treatment had been refreshed, QMP- and QMP+ cages were collected into liquid nitrogen. 8 cages of each were collected on each day of the timecourse (1 day of treatment = Day 1, as well as Day 2, Day 3, and Day4).

Brain transcriptomics of honey bee parasitized by Varroa destructor or Nosema ceranae

Project description:In this study we addressed whether the transcriptome profile in the honey bee brain is similar for two major parasites of honey bee, Varroa destructor and Nosema ceranae. Honey bees parasitized by these two parasites show accelerated behavioral maturation and deficiences in orientation and learning/memory that we hoped to characterized at the transcriptomic level. honey bee adults infested by Varroa destructor or Nosema ceranae compared to control bees, in duplicate

Liver-protecting Effect of Maple Syrup

Project description:Rats fed a 20%-maple syrup diet (maple syrup group) for 11 days showed significantly lower values of the hepatic function markers than those fed a 20%-sugar mix syrup diet (control) likewise. One reasons was suggested by DNA microarray analysis which revealed that the expression of genes for enzymes of ammonia production were down-regulated in the liver of maple syrup group. Rats were quarantined and conditioned by administration of the authentic AIN93G diet for 4 days. Rats had free access to the diet and drinking water during this preliminary feeding. For feeding tests, they were dichotomized (n = 7 and 8) for maple syrup and sugar mix syrup group, respectively, and then fed for 11 days on either the AIN93G diet containing 20% maple syrup or on the 20% sugar mix syrup with a similar sugar composition; the amount of maple syrup or the sugar mix syrup was arranged. Rats in both diet groups were fasted for 16 hours, prior to being anesthetically sacrificed for dissection.

Effects of Deformed wing virus infection and the mite Varroa destructor on siRNA and miRNA composition in the honeybee (Apis mellifera)

Project description:Experiment was designed to study the effect of Deformed wing virus (DWV) and the mite Varroa destructor on on siRNA and miRNA composition using high-throughput sequencing of small RNA in developing worker honeybee (Apis mellifera). Newly hatched bee larvae (day 3 of bee development) were transferred from a Varroa-free colony with low DWV levels to a Varroa-infested colony with high levels of DWV in bees and Varroa mites. All transferred larvae were receiving the DWV strains present in this Varroa-infested colony with the food delivered by the nurse bees until their capping (day 8). About half of these larvae were capped with Varroa mite and were subjected to the mite piercing and feeding on their haemolymph during pupal development until sampling at purple eye stage (day 14). Exposure to the mite piercing and feeding resulted in about 1000-fold increase of the DWV levels in the majority of the mite-exposed pupae compared to the control pupae and the pupae not exposed to Varroa mites.
