Omics Insights into the Effects of Highbush Blueberry and Cranberry Crop Agroecosystems on Honey Bee Health and Physiology

Description

Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are essential pollinators in agricultural systems, particularly in fruit-producing agroecosystems such as highbush blueberry and cranberry. However, their health is increasingly compromised by multiple interacting stressors, including pesticide exposure, pathogen infections, and changing nutritional landscapes. To test the hypothesis that distinct agricultural ecosystems, with different combinations of agrochemical exposure, pathogen loads, and floral resources, elicit ecosystem specific, tissue level molecular responses in honey bees, we conducted an integrated multiomics analysis. We combined RNA sequencing, quantitative proteomics, and gut microbiome profiling across three key tissues: head, abdomen, and gut collected from bees in blueberry and cranberry agroecosystems over two field seasons. In parallel, we quantified pesticide residues and pathogen and parasite loads (e.g., Nosema spp., Varroa destructor, and several viruses). Notably, our weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) revealed tissue specific coregulated protein modules with ecosystem associated patterns. Bees from blueberry agroecosystems exhibited elevated expression of modules in oxidative phosphorylation, and translation, while those from cranberry agroecosystems showed increased activity in immune pathways and endoplasmic reticulum associated protein processing, indicating potential as robust markers for ecosystem induced physiological adaptation. To further explore the molecular mechanisms underlying different ecosystems, we also conducted the integrative analysis of proteomics, transcriptomics and gut microbiome metagenomics. Gut microbiota composition also differed significantly, with key genera (e.g., Gilliamella, Snodgrassella, Bartonella) correlating with host metabolic and immune modules. These findings underscore the complex, environment-dependent impacts of agroecosystem conditions on bee health. Our study provides a systems level understanding of how combined pesticide, pathogen, and parasitic stressors, mediated by diet and microbiome, shape molecular phenotypes in honey bees, informing strategies for pollinator protection in managed landscapes.

Click here to queue conversion of this dataset's submitted spectrum files to open formats (e.g. mzML). This process may take some time.

When complete, the converted files will be available in the "ccms_peak" subdirectory of the dataset's FTP space (accessible via the "FTP Download" link to the right).
Number of distinct conditions across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct condition labels are counted across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category having a "Condition" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct biological replicates across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct replicate labels are counted across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category having a "BioReplicate" or "Replicate" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct technical replicates across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

The technical replicate count is defined as the maximum number of times any one distinct combination of condition and biological replicate was analyzed across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category. In the case of fractionated experiments, only the first fraction is considered.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Originally identified proteins that were automatically remapped by MassIVE to proteins in the SwissProt human reference database.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct protein accessions reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct unmodified peptide sequences reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct peptide sequences (including modified variants or peptidoforms) reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Total number of peptide-spectrum matches (i.e. spectrum identifications) reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct proteins quantified across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct protein accessions are counted across all files submitted in the "Statistical Analysis of Quantified Analytes" category having a "Protein" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct proteins found to be differentially abundant in at least one comparison across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

A protein is differentially abundant if its change in abundance across conditions is found to be statistically significant with an adjusted p-value <= 0.05 and lists no issues associated with statistical tests for differential abundance.

Distinct protein accessions are counted across all files submitted in the "Statistical Analysis of Quantified Analytes" category having a "Protein" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
This dataset may not contain all raw spectra data as originally deposited in PRIDE. It has been imported to MassIVE for reanalysis purposes, so its spectra data here may consist solely of processed peak lists suitable for reanalysis with most software.
