Management strategies for preventing and recovering from bermudagrass winterkill

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 10, Issue 2, December 2024.
Abstract Bermudagrass (Cynodon spp. Rich) is a warm‐season grass that is widely planted throughout tropical, sub‐tropical, and even temperate climates, and it generally requires fewer inputs than most cool‐season turfgrasses. In recent years, the area of adaptation for bermudagrass has progressively expanded to cooler climates due to the development of

Deformed wing virus type A, a major honey bee pathogen, is vectored by the mite Varroa destructor in a non-propagative manner

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Honey bees, the primary managed insect pollinator, suffer considerable losses due to Deformed wing virus (DWV), an RNA virus vectored by the mite Varroa destructor. Mite vectoring has resulted in the emergence of virulent DWV variants. The basis for such

Mite bombs or robber lures? The roles of drifting and robbing in Varroa destructor transmission from collapsing honey bee colonies to their neighbors

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
When honey bee colonies collapse from high infestations of Varroa mites, neighboring colonies often experience surges in their mite populations. Collapsing colonies, often called “mite bombs”, seem to pass their mites to neighboring colonies.
