Abstract
- Honey contains a wealth of information about the environment and can be used to gather data on bee health, biodiversity, and diseases. Scientists are using advanced DNA tools to analyze honey and extract valuable information about the plants, insects, fungi, viruses, and larger animals encountered by bees during their foraging. Honey can be used to identify the geographical origin of honey, detect food fraud, monitor shifts in climate, and even study the health of bee colonies. DNA analysis of honey is becoming increasingly common and has the potential to revolutionize research in the field. [Extracted from the article]
