Associations 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...
متن کاملHeritability in Honey Bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae) of Characteristics Associated with Resistance to Varroa jacobsoni (Mesostigmata: Varroidae)
This studyuses siblinganalysis tomeasure theheritability inhoneybees,Apismellifera L., of characteristics that have been associated with resistance to the mite, Varroa jacobsoni Oudemans. Twenty-eight uniform colonies of bees were established on 13 May in Baton Rouge, LA, each with 1 kg of mite-infested bees and a queen. The 28 unrelated queens in these colonies were divided into 7 groups of 4 ...
متن کاملPOPULATION ECOLOGY Variable Population Growth of Varroa destructor (Mesostigmata: Varroidae) in Colonies of Honey Bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae) During a 10-Year Period
We measured signiÞcant variation in the instantaneous growth rates for varroa mites, Varroa destructor (Anderson & Trueman) from 1993 to 2002 in Baton Rouge, LA. Mite population growth was monitored in colonies of honey bees, Apis mellifera L., with queens from miscellaneous U.S. sources that had not been selectively bred for varroa resistance.Mite populations weremeasured at the beginning and ...
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 کاملA rapid survey technique for Tropilaelaps mite (Mesostigmata: Laelapidae) detection.
Parasitic Tropilaelaps (Delfinado and Baker) mites are a damaging pest of European honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) in Asia. These mites represent a significant threat if introduced to other regions of the world, warranting implementation of Tropilaelaps mite surveillance in uninfested regions. Current Tropilaelaps mite-detection methods are unsuitable for efficient large scale screening. We deve...
