Multi-country loss rates of honey bee colonies during winter 2016/2017 from the COLOSS survey
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2018)
In this short note we present comparable loss rates of honey bee colonies during winter 2016/2017 from 27 European countries plus Algeria, Israel and Mexico, obtained with the COLOSS questionnaire. The 14,813 beekeepers ...
Nosema ceranae and queen age influence the reproduction and productivity of the honey bee colony
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2014)
The strength of the honey bee colony and the quality concerning brood production, number of worker bees and honey yield depend substantially upon the characteristics of the queen. Reproductive and productive capacities of ...
The effect of diet types on some quality characteristics of artificially reared Apis mellifera queens
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2020)
The influence of various diets on the quality of Apis mellifera queens was assessed. Colonies intended for queen cell production were assigned to four groups fed on (1) sugar-only, (2) mix of sugar, honey and fresh pollen, ...
Estimation of honey bee colony infection with Nosema ceranae and Varroa destructor using fluorescence spectroscopy in combination with differential scanning calorimetry of honey samples
(Taylor and Francis, 2021)
In this preliminary study, we applied the Multivariate Curve Resolution- Alternating Least Squares (MCR-ALS) method to analyze the excitation-emission matrices of multifloral honey samples, combined with differential ...
Honey bee colony loss rates in 37 countries using the COLOSS survey for winter 2019–2020: the combined effects of operation size, migration and queen replacement
(Journal of Apicultural Research, 2023)
This article presents managed honey bee colony loss rates over winter 2019/20 resulting from using the standardised COLOSS questionnaire in 37 countries. Six countries were from outside Europe, including, for the first ...
Preliminary trials on effects of lithium salts on Varroa destructor, honey and wax matrices
(International Bee Research AssociationTaylor and Francis, 2022)
In a cage experiment, lithium chloride (LiCl) and lithium citrate hydrate (Li-cit) were tested for varroacidal efficacy and impact on bees. Treatment with Li-cit (4, 7.5, 10, and 25 mM) resulted in 100% varroacidal efficacy ...
Evaluation of genotoxic and genoprotective effects of Agaricus bisporus extract on AmE-711 honey bee cell line in the Comet assay
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Mushroom extracts have been shown to contain bioactive compounds that confer health benefits to humans and animals, including honey bees. Honey bees are often challenged simultaneously with several abiotic (e.g., pesticides ...
Occurrence of honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) pathogens in commercial and traditional hives
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2019)
This work was aimed at the detection of the differences in the occurrence of seven bee pathogens between bee colonies kept in commercial and traditional ways. The research was conducted on 120 apparently healthy, commercially ...
Honey bee colony winter loss rates for 35 countries participating in the COLOSS survey for winter 2018–2019, and the effects of a new queen on the risk of colony winter loss
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2020)
This article presents managed honey bee colony loss rates over winter 2018/19 resulting from using the standardised COLOSS questionnaire in 35 countries (31 in Europe). In total, 28,629 beekeepers supplying valid loss data ...
