Research progress on VARROA DESTRUCTOR [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences, 2022
Varroa destructor is the most serious threat for western honeybees worldwide. It parasitizes mostly on honeybee's pupae and larvae, resulting in impaired development, decreased immunity, residual wings, loss of flight ability, and even direct death.

Detection of Varroa destructor Infestation of Honeybees Based on Segmentation and Object Detection Convolutional Neural Networks

AgriEngineering, 2023
Varroa destructor infestation is a major factor leading to the global decline of honeybee populations. Monitoring the level of Varroa mite infestation in order to take timely control measures is crucial for the protection of bee colonies.

Environmental DNA Methods for Detection of Varroa destructor in Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) Hives

Environmental DNA
The parasitic mite, Varroa destructor, is a worldwide problem for honey bees (Apis mellifera). The recent spread of this pest to Australia, which was one of the few varroa‐free honey bee populations remaining, highlights the importance of effective ...

An RNA interference biopesticide reduces reproduction of the honey bee parasite Varroa destructor by down-regulating embryo development pathways. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
The honey bee parasite, Varroa destructor, is a globally devastating pest. Our previous experiments with laboratory mini‐hives of bees and Varroa have shown an RNA interference biopesticide consisting of double‐stranded RNA specific in sequence to a V ...

Honey bee populations surviving Varroa destructor parasitism in Latin America and their mechanisms of resistance

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
The honey bee (Apis mellifera) parasitic mite, Varroa destructor, is considered one of the main causes of colony losses in European honey bee (EHB) populations around the world.

Viral communities in the parasite Varroa destructor and in colonies of their honey bee host (Apis mellifera) in New Zealand

Scientific Reports, 2022
The parasitic mite Varroa destructor is a leading cause of mortality for Western honey bee (Apis mellifera) colonies around the globe. We sought to confirm the presence and likely introduction of only one V.

Genotype, but Not Climate, Affects the Resistance of Honey Bees (Apis mellifera) to Viral Infections and to the Mite Varroa destructor

Veterinary Sciences, 2022
This study was conducted to analyze the effect of genotype and climate on the resistance of honey bee (Apis mellifera) colonies to parasitic and viral diseases. The prevalence and intensity of parasitism by Varroa destructor, or infection by Nosema spp.,

Epidemiology, factors influencing prevalence and level of varroosis infestation (Varroa destructor) in honeybee (Apis mellifera) colonies in different agroecologies of Southwest Ethiopia

Parasite Epidemiology and Control, 2023
Little information is available on the epidemiology of varroosis caused by Varroa mite, Varroa destructor infestation in Ethiopia, although it is a devastating honeybee disease that results in significant economic losses in beekeeping. Therefore, between
