Feral honey bees in pine forest landscapes of east Texas
Coulson, Robert N.; Pinto, M. Alice; Tchakerian, Maria D.; Baum, Kristen A.; Rubink, William L.; Johnston, J. SpencerIn 1990 the Africanized honey bee, a descendent of Apis mellifera scutellata, was identified in south Texas [Hunter, L.A., Jackman, J.A., Sugden,E.A., 1992.Detection records of Africanized honey bees inTexas during 1990, 1991 and 1992. Southwestern Entomol. 18, 79–89]. The potential impact of this immigrant on feral and managed colonies was the subject of considerable speculation. The goal of this study was to ...
Spatial and temporal distribution and nest site characteristics of feral honey ...
Baum, Kristen A.; Rubink, William L.; Pinto, M. Alice; Coulson, Robert N.We evaluated the distribution and abundance of feral honey bee, Apis mellifera L., colonies in a coastal prairie landscape by examining nest site characteristics, population trends, and spatial and temporal patterns in cavity use. The colony densities of up to 12.5 colonies per km2 were the highest reported in the literature for an area including both suitable and unsuitable patches of nesting habitat. The meas...
Feral honey bees in pine forest landscapes of East Texas
Coulson, Robert N.; Pinto, M. Alice; Tchakerian, Maria D.; Baum, Kristen A.; Rubink, William L.; Johnston, J. SpencerThe goal of this study was to investigate the diversity of feral honey bee races in pine forest landscapes of east Texas, subsequent to immigration of Africanized honey bees, Apis mellifera scutellata. The specific objectives were (i) to assess the immigration of A. m. scutellata into east Texas pine forest landscapes and (ii) to evaluate the suitability of the pine forest landscape to feral honey bees. This me...
Long term preservation of DNA from honey bees (Apis mellifera) collected in aer...
Rubink, William L.; Murray, K. D.; Baum, Kristen A.; Pinto, M. AliceThis study examines the preservation of nuclear and mitochondrial DNA from honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) specimens which were first kept in propylene glycol-based antifreeze under various conditions, and then stored long-term, refrigerated in 95% ethanol. Two sets of bees were subjected to the propylene glycol treatment, then ethanol storage. One set consisted of bees captured in the field in propylene glycol-c...
