Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Dylan Cleary's research focuses on the molecular diagnostics and genetic variation of honey bee pathogens and parasites. His work has investigated the co-occurrence of specific pathogens like *Lotmaria passim* and *Nosema ceranae* in honey bee populations across multiple U.S. states. Cleary has also conducted molecular diagnostic surveys to identify various pathogens and parasites affecting honey bees in Arkansas and has studied the mitochondrial DNA variation within honey bee colonies in Arkansas and Oklahoma.
In addition to honey bee research, Cleary has explored the isolation of fungal strains, such as *Metarhizium guizhouense* and *Metarhizium robertsii*, from the tick species *Amblyomma americanum* in Northwest Arkansas. His research utilizes molecular techniques to understand genetic diversity and pathogen prevalence in insect and arachnid populations. Cleary's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 4 with 13 publications and 50 citations. He has collaborated extensively with Allen L. Szalanski, with whom he shares 8 publications.
