Development of Varroa jacobsoni in colonies of Apis mellifera capensis and Apis mellifera carnica
Honey bee colonies (Apis mellifera carnical, infested with Varroa jacobsonl were de-queened and divided into 2 subunits. Each pair of subunits were requeened with an inseminated A m capensis and A m carnica queen. The development of the mite population was monitored by determining the number of mites in samples of brood, and worker bees, and lhe number of dead mites on the bottom board of the h...
متن کاملA population model for the ectoparasitic mite Varroa jacobsoni in honey bee (Apis mellifera) colonies
The ectoparasitic mite Varroa jacobsoni Oud. presently poses one of the most serious problems faced by keepers of honeybees Apis mellifera L. To help understand why the mite has become such a serious problem a population dynamics model using recently published data has been constructed. The simulation model has been built by linking together various aspects of the mites’ biology using computer ...
متن کاملHost Specificity in the Honeybee Parasitic Mite, Varroa spp. in Apis mellifera and Apis cerana
The ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor is a major global threat to the Western honeybee Apis mellifera. This mite was originally a parasite of A. cerana in Asia but managed to spill over into colonies of A. mellifera which had been introduced to this continent for honey production. To date, only two almost clonal types of V. destructor from Korea and Japan have been detected in A. mellifera c...
متن کاملComb construction in mixed-species colonies of honeybees, Apis cerana and Apis mellifera.
Comb building in mixed-species colonies of Apis cerana and Apis mellifera was studied. Two types of cell-size foundation were made from the waxes of these species and inserted into mixed colonies headed either by an A. cerana or an A. mellifera queen. The colonies did not discriminate between the waxes but the A. cerana cell-size foundation was modified during comb building by the workers of bo...
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...
