The neurobiological mechanism of bee population secretion of bee king pulp has been revealed.

Recently, the proteomics team of the Bee Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, based on the high-yielding bees of the bee king pulp selected in China, revealed the neurobiological basis for regulating the secretion of the bee king pulp through the study of brain-sniffing nerve leaves and mushroom proteomics.
the study was published online in Molecular and Cell Proteomics.
Li Jianke, head of the research team, said that the secretion of bee syrup is the behavior of feeding larvae regulated by the bee's brain.
the italian bee (Italian bee) successfully selected the high-yielding bee line (pulp bee), but the neurobiological mechanism is not clear.
The study found that feeding bees to receive larvae informationine stimulation is the premise of feeding behavior, bee feeding bee olfactory sensitivity to larvae informationin stimulation significantly improved, to ensure that the larvae in Wangtai can be fed in time, which is the basis of the production of bee king pulp.
bees are innate brain mushroom body and olfactory nerve leaf protein and energy metabolism function is enhanced to protect neurons and protrusions, which is the basis for the identification of larvae pyrotein long-term memory formation.
the synthesis and degradation function of the protein that feeds the bee-sniffing nerve leaf to ensure the long-term memory function of neurons and synapses.
At the same time, the function of regulating phosphorylation kinase and signal transducing metabolic path is enhanced, resulting in increased plasticity of olfactory nerve lobes and sensitivity to receiving signal stimuli, and strengthening the short-term memory of larvae' pyrotechrine stimulation.
the strengthening of the synthesis and degradation function of bee-sniffing nerve leaf protein collection to process complex honey source information during food collection outside the nest.
the research was supported by projects such as the Science and Technology Innovation Project of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, the National Bee Industry Technology System, the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the National Bee Industry Quality Project.
