Practical sampling plans for Varroa destructor (Acari: Varroidae) in Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae) colonies and apiaries.
The parasitic mite Varroa destructor Anderson & Trueman (Acari: Varroidae) is arguably the most detrimental pest of the European-derived honey bee, Apis mellifera L. Unfortunately, beekeepers lack a standardized sampling plan to make informed treatment decisions. Based on data from 31 commercial apiaries, we developed sampling plans for use by beekeepers and researchers to estimate the density ...
متن کاملThe effect of temperature and humidity on grooming behaviour of honeybee, Apis mellifera (Hym.: Apidae) colonies against varroa mite, Varroa destructor (Acari: Varroidae)
رفتار نظافت‌گری یکی از مهم‌ترین مکانیزم‌های دفاعی زنبور عسل علیه کنه‌ی واروآ می‌باشد که در طرح‌های اصلاح‌نژادی برای بهبود این صفت تلاش می‌شود. علاوه بر خصوصیات ژنتیکی کلنی، شرایط محیطی نیز در بروز چنین صفات رفتاری مؤثر است. هدف این تحقیق، تعیین تأثیر دما و رطوبت نسبی روی رفتار نظافت‌گری کلنی‌های زنبور عسل علیه کنه‌ی واروآ در دو لاین مقاوم و حساس به این کنه بود. برای این منظور، صد زنبور عسل ک...
متن کاملAPICULTURE AND SOCIAL INSECTS Formic Acid Treatment for Control of Varroa destructor (Mesostigmata: Varroidae) and Safety to Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae) Under Southern United States Conditions
The efÞcacy of a formic acid pad formulation was Þeld tested for control of the honey bee parasitic miteVarroa destructorAnderson & Trueman in Florida and Texas. This pad formulation gave 39.8 11.1% control at the end of a 6-wk treatment period,which did not signiÞcantly differ from the initial sample date. Coumaphos treatment provided poor control (38.4 11.1%) over the 6-wk period, conÞrming r...
متن کاملECOLOGY, BEHAVIOR AND BIONOMICS Uncapping Activity of Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera: Apidae) towards Worker Brood Cells Infested with the Mite Varroa destructor Anderson & Treuman (Mesostigmata: Varroidae)
Varroosis, a disease caused by the mite Varroa destructor Anderson and Treuman has killed hundreds of thousands of Apis mellifera L. colonies in various parts of the world. Nevertheless, the damage caused by this mite varies with the type of bee and climate conditions. Varroa causes little damage to Africanized bee colonies in Brazil, as the infestation rates are relatively stable and low. We e...
متن کاملAssociations of parameters related to the fall of Varroa destructor (Mesostigmata: Varroidae) in Russian and Italian honey bee (Hymenoptera: Apidae) colonies.
Varroa destructor (Anderson and Truman) trapped on bottom boards were assessed as indirect measurements of colony mite populations and mite fall in colonies of Russian and Italian honey bees using 29 candidate measurements. Measurements included damaged and nondamaged younger mites, damaged and nondamaged older mites, fresh mites and all mites, each as a proportion of total mites in the colonie...
