Physiological trade-offs in male social insects: Interactions among infection, immunity, fertility, size, and age in honey bee drones

2022 journal article
Drone honey bees are disproportionately sensitive to abiotic stressors despite expressing high levels of stress response proteins
COMMUNICATIONS BIOLOGY, 5(1).
MeSH headings : Animals; Bees / drug effects; Bees / physiology; Cold Temperature; Female; Gene Expression Regulation / drug effects; Male; Neonicotinoids / toxicity; Nitro Compounds / toxicity; Pesticides / toxicity; Sex Factors; Stress, Physiological
TL;DR:
Surprisingly, although drones are more likely to die from some stressors than workers, they exhibit higher baseline stress response proteins, suggesting that drones’ stress tolerance systems are fundamentally rewired relative to workers, and susceptibility to stress depends on more than simply gene dose or allelic diversity.

Variation in the reproductive quality of honey bee males affects their age of flight attempt
PEERJ, 10.
author keywords: Apis mellifera; Drones; Sperm; Aging; Mating; Ontogeny; Flight; Honey bees; Life history
MeSH headings : Bees; Male; Animals; Semen; Reproduction; Insemination; Fertility; Spermatozoa
TL;DR:
Honey bee males exhibit life histories that enable a high potential for pre- or post-copulatory sperm competition, and the temporal spread of mating attempts of a single generation of drones within a given colony increases colony-level chances of mating with nearby queens, suggesting an adaptive rationale for high variation among drone reproductive quality within colonies.

Honey bee queen health is unaffected by contact exposure to pesticides commonly found in beeswax
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS, 11(1).
MeSH headings : Animals; Beekeeping; Bees / drug effects; Bees / physiology; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Environmental Exposure / adverse effects; Environmental Exposure / analysis; Fat Body / drug effects; Fat Body / metabolism; Female; Insect Proteins / drug effects; Insect Proteins / metabolism; Male; Oviposition / drug effects; Pesticide Residues / analysis; Pesticide Residues / toxicity; Pesticides / analysis; Pesticides / toxicity; Proteomics; Reproduction / drug effects; Sperm Count; Waxes / chemistry; Waxes / toxicity
TL;DR:
It is suggested that previously reported associations between high levels of pesticide residues in wax and queen failure are most likely driven by indirect effects of worker exposure (either through wax or other hive products) on queen care or queen perception.

Influence of brood pheromone on honey bee colony establishment and queen replacement
JOURNAL OF APICULTURAL RESEARCH, 60(2), 220–228.
author keywords: Apis mellifera; queen replacement; colony establishment; collective decision making
TL;DR:
It is suggested that while BEP alone is insufficient to deter premature supersedure, there are clear benefits to queen longevity and package-installation success when establishing new colonies with frames of young brood.

Reproductive Senescence in Drones of the Honey Bee (Apis mellifera)
INSECTS, 10(1).
author keywords: Apis mellifera; drone; sperm viability; senescence; aging; reproduction; spermatozoa; honey bee
TL;DR:
Drones are more highly variable than previously suggested and that they have a significant variation in reproductive physiology as a function of age, particularly among larger, more reproductively developed drones.

Honey bees consider larval nutritional status rather than genetic relatedness when selecting larvae for emergency queen rearing
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS, 8.
TL;DR:
Honey bees perceive the nutritional state of larvae and use that information when selecting larvae for rearing queens in the natural emergency queen replacement process, and the role of genetic relatedness is investigated.
