Gene expression in honey bee (Apis mellifera) larvae exposed to pesticides and Varroa mites (Varroa destructor).
Honey bee (Apis mellifera) larvae reared in vitro were exposed to one of nine pesticides and/or were challenged with the parasitic mite, Varroa destructor. Total RNA was extracted from individual larvae and first strand cDNAs were generated. Gene-expression changes in larvae were measured using quantitative PCR (qPCR) targeting transcripts for pathogens and genes involved in physiological proce...
متن کاملVarroa Disease in Honey Bees*
The International Symposium on Varroa Disease was organized by the Central Board of Apiculture of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industry of the Bulgarian People’s Republic following the initiative of the International Federation of Beekeepers’ Associations – APIMONDIA. It was attended by approximately 30 apiculturists and beekeepers of Bulgaria, Romania, USSR, and Yugoslavia. In Bulgaria...
متن کاملTranscriptional responses in eastern honeybees (Apis cerana) infected with mites, Varroa destructor.
The Varroa destructor mite has become the greatest threat to Apis mellifera health worldwide, but rarely causes serious damage to its native host Apis cerana. Understanding the resistance mechanisms of eastern bees against Varroa mites will help researchers determine how to protect other species from this organism. The A. cerana genome has not been previously sequenced; hence, here we sequenced...
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 کاملBrain metabolomic profiling of eastern honey bee (Apis cerana) infested with the mite Varroa destructor
The mite Varroa destructor is currently the greatest threat to apiculture as it is causing a global decrease in honey bee colonies. However, it rarely causes serious damage to its native hosts, the eastern honey bees Apis cerana. To better understand the mechanism of resistance of A. cerana against the V. destructor mite, we profiled the metabolic changes that occur in the honey bee brain durin...
