Honey bee pathologies are continuously studied by researchers, in order to investigate the host–parasite relationship and its effect on honey bee colonies. For these reasons, the interest of the veterinary community towards this issue has increased recently, and honey bee health has also become a subject of public interest. Bacteria, such as Melissococcus plutonius and Paenibacillus larvae, microsporidia, such as Nosema apis and Nosema ceranae, fungi, such as Ascosphaera apis, mites, such as Varroa destructor, predatory wasps, including Vespa velutina, and invasive beetles, such as Aethina tumida, are “old” and “new” subjects of important veterinary interest. Recently, the role of host–pathogen interactions in bee health has been included in a multifactorial approach to the study of these insects’ health, which involves a dynamic balance among a range of threats and resources interacting at multiple levels. The aim of this Special Issue is to explore honey bee health through a series of research articles that are focused on different aspects of honey bee health at different levels, including molecular health, microbial health, population genetic health, and the interaction between invasive species that live in strict contact with honey bee populations.Research & information: generalbicssctext-miningtopic modelingcolony collapse disordergenomicsVarroa mitehoney bee healthApis melliferaGABAbeta-alanineoxalic aciddiet effectmicrobiotabeesilicone bandhivepassive samplerhoney beevirusDWV-Ahive productshoneypollenwaxNosema ceranaeNosema apisepidemiologyreplacementecoregionsNorth AsiaDNA analysishealthLotmaria passimMelissococcus plutoniuspathologyTropilaelapsVarroa destructorhoney beesmitesvirusesbehaviorsocial immunityAfricanized beesmicrosatellitesUruguayhoneybeeOne-HealthnexuslandscapebeekeeperpathogenshistopathologytestesmicrosporidiaHsp70 gene16S rRNA genegarlicviabilityprevalenceinfection intensityseasonalitybee longevitybee populationhoney storesCCDmitereproductive rateworker broodinfestation levellongevitydistributionmodelhoney bee modelgroomingdroneschronic bee paralysis virusVarroa infestation controlnosemosishairless black syndromehoneybee veterinary medicineacute bee paralysischronic bee paralysisdeformed wing virusvarroa infestationhoney bee lossesviral diseasesnosematosisnegative pressuresbee hive monitoringreal-time monitoringsound measurementswarming detectionqueen bee detectionsound analysisacaricidesprimer pheromonehydrocarbon profilessurvivalNosema diseasedark forest beeApis mellifera melliferamicrosatellite lociassociationgut microbiotagut mycobiotaseasonApis mellifera L.unicellularResearch & information: generalCilia Giovanniedt1278718Nanetti AntonioedtCilia GiovanniothNanetti AntonioothBOOK9910557317503321Honey Bee Health3022604UNINA
