Population dynamics of European honey bee genotypes under different environmental conditions (2014, background): “…among scientists that the causes for these colony losses are multifactorial, with the major culprits being identified as diseases and parasites (Higes et al., 2006; Cox-Foster et al., 2007; de Miranda and Genersch, 2010; de Miranda et al., 2010; Johnson et al., 2009; Genersch et al., 2010;…”
How natural infection by Nosema ceranae causes honeybee colony collapse. (2008, methodology): “Infection was confirmed by PCR in all cases (Higes et al., 2006; Martín-Hernández et al., 2007).”
Conserving diversity and vitality for honey bee breeding (2010, background): “In addition, beekeepers in Europe and also in North America have repeatedly been afflicted by elevated and sometimes unexplained winter losses (Higes et al., 2006; Oldroyd, 2007; vanEngelsdorp and Meixner, 2009).”
Massively Introduced Managed Species and Their Consequences for Plant–Pollinator Interactions (2017, background): “Parasite spillover between managed and wild bumblebees has been highlighted in Japan, Europe, United States and South America (Graystock et al., 2016).”

A historical review of managed honey bee populations in Europe and the United States and the factors that may affect them. (2010, background): “It was later found to occur in colonies of A. mellifera in Taiwan (Huang et al., 2007) and reported from Spain (Higes et al., 2006).”
Nosema ceranae disease of the honey bee (Apis mellifera) (2018, background): “…that N. ceranae had an expanded geographic and host Corresponding author: M. Goblirsch, goblirmj@umn.edu Manuscript editor: Yves Le Conte range decades before first detection as natural infections of A. mellifera in Spain (Higes et al. 2006) and the USA (Cox-Foster et al. 2007; Huang et al. 2007).”
The influence of genetic origin and its interaction with environmental effects on the survival of Apis mellifera L. colonies in Europe (2014, background): “…losses has mostly focused on diseases and parasites, most prominently the mite Varroa destructor, virus diseases, and the microsporidian Nosema spp. (Higes et al., 2006; Cox-Foster et al., 2007; Johnson et al., 2009; de Miranda and Genersch, 2010; de Miranda et al., 2010; Rosenkranz et al., 2010).”
Does infection by Nosema ceranae cause “Colony Collapse Disorder” in honey bees (Apis mellifera)? (2010, background): “Spanish A. mellifera may be more susceptible to N. ceranae than other honey bee races, or the variant of N. ceranae within Spain may be more virulent than that found elsewhere, suggestions which deserve attention.”
Importance of pollinators in changing landscapes for world crops (2007, background): “…Downey & Winston 2001; Chen et al. 2004), the small hive beetle (Aethina tumida; Evans et al. 2003) and the microsporidian parasite Nosema ceranae (Higes et al. 2006), (ii) improper pesticide and herbicide use (Ingram et al. 1996), (iii) ageing of the beekeeper population in Europe and North…”
Colony Collapse Disorder: A Descriptive Study (2009, background): “ceranae is poorly understood, it has been implicated with recent large-scale losses experienced by Spanish beekeepers [38,39].”
Occurrence of parasites and pathogens in honey bee colonies used in a European genotype-environment interactions experiment (2014, background): “Our data on Nosema spp. infection levels and Nosema species distribution do not support the hypothesis that N. ceranae has to be regarded as a major driver of colony losses (Higes et al., 2006, 2008, 2009).”
