Sure.
But the exact mechanisms how I make them e.g. resistant against fungi, that I haven't disclosed (intentionally). So that probably is still patentable.

Bee transformation with GFP was described before, and you couldn't patent the transformation of honeybee anyway. What you can patent are the specific heterologous sequences.

You've disclosed the idea publicly, so it's safe from predatory
patenting. That is, if anyone patents it now, you can have their patent
revoked simply by pointing to the public list archives where you wrote
about it first.
No need for patents! :)
