Description: Two full-time Graduate Research Assistantships (Ph.D.) are available beginning Summer/Fall 2019 in the laboratory of Dr. Brock Harpur (beemolevo.com) in the Department of Entomology at Purdue University. North American honeybee populations are non-native. They originate from European settlers who brought colonies from at least two highly-diverged source populations. How does admixture of highly diverged […]
The Hunt Lab is broadly interested in how evolution produces variation in insect form and function. We use ants and bees as models for studying how evolutionary mechanisms shape variation in social behavior. We have two, recently-funded projects in the lab to support graduate students; both use functional genomic and transcriptomic methods to study the […]

L’acarien Varroa destructor est l’un des principaux parasites de l’abeille domestique Apis mellifera, causant d’importantes pertes de colonies à l’échelle mondiale dû à une relation hôte-parasite déséquilibrée. Certaines colonies d’abeilles ont cependant développé des stratégies de défense naturelle face au parasite, ce qui leur permet de survivre à l’acarien. Plusieurs mécanismes de défense ont été […]
