    Brian Spiesman w/ Bee Machine- EP016 Hyve Time™ Beekeeping Podcast

    On today's episode, I sit down with Brian Spiesman, a community and landscape ecologist at the University of Kansas, who is broadly interested in how environmental change affects the diversity and function of ecological communities. He has a focus on understanding how land cover change affects communities of plants and their pollinators. The goal of his research is to wrangle knowledge of complex systems for the effective conservation of biodiversity and ecosystem services. Brian also helped create the Bee Machine™, an application for identifying bumble bee species using machine learning. We discuss the Bee Machine and what it does, how it was developed, how it works, and the future of the application. We also discuss the relationship between habitat and the web of species that rely on each other for survival.

    Dr. Kaira Wagoner on UBO Honey Bee Essay | Will UBO will be the new VSH? | Testing bees for a Unhealthy Brood Odor Response- Hyve Time Episode 013

    I sit down with Dr. Kaira Wagoner who has discovered a new, simpler, and more effective way to detect honey bee colonies that express varroa hygienic behavior through the detection of unhealthy brood via odors produced by the brood. This discovery will help the industry with her new business detect and identify much more easily and with higher precision, which colonies may manage diseases and pests like the varroa mite extremely effectively.   Her process involves spraying compounds that have been synthetically processed to mimic the scents injured brood emit when attacked by mites and other pests and diseases. The hygienic colonies then open each cell up by chewing the capping off and within 2 hours you as a beekeeper will have an identifiable score for each colony.    _____________________________________ Links:  Contact Dr. Wagoner- email: opterallp@gmail.com  Research Paper- https://www.hyperhyve.com/dr-kaira-wagoner-ubo-essay-hygienic-bees Support the show @ Patreon: Mike James- https://www.patreon.com/solarwoof13 Citizen Scientist Kit- https://amzn.to/3Q4hU2u
