Bioactivity of gallic acid–conjugated silica nanoparticles against Paenibacillus larvae and their host, Apis mellifera honeybeeApidologie - Tập 50 - Trang 616-631 - 2019
Enzo Domínguez, María P. Moliné, María S. Churio, Valeria B. Arce, Daniel O. Mártire, Sara N. Mendiara, Brenda S. Álvarez, Liesel B. Gende, Natalia Damiani
The aim of this work was to evaluate antimicrobial activity against Paenibacillus larvae and oral toxicity against workers and larvae of Apis mellifera of gallic acid (GA) and two nanohybrids of GA and silica. Also, the physicochemical, structural, and energetic properties of GA and the nanohybrids were determined through structure–activity relationship (SAR). The minimum inhibitory concentration ...... hiện toàn bộ
Bee colony losses in Brazil: a 5-year online surveyApidologie - Tập 50 - Trang 263-272 - 2019
Dayson Castilhos, Genevile C. Bergamo, Katia P. Gramacho, Lionel S. Gonçalves
In 2014, an online survey was launched to assess impacts of bee losses in Brazil (honeybees, stingless bees, and solitary bees). Events from January 2013 to December 2017 were collected on a website

Variation in maternal solitary bee nest defence related to nest stateApidologie - Tập 47 - Trang 90-100 - 2015

Parental protection of offspring is found in numerous animal species. Protection provides offspring with a greater chance of surviving to be able to reproduce, while at the same time, often posing a cost to the parent. Therefore, the net value of defence for the parent can vary depending on the developmental stage of the offspring and their ability to defend themselves. For example, in commonly st...... hiện toàn bộ
The effects of four crop protection products on the morphology and ultrastructure of the hypopharyngeal gland of the European honeybee, Apis melliferaApidologie - - 2011
Kevin Heylen, Bruno Gobin, Lutgarde Arckens, Roger Huybrechts, Johan Billen
This study describes the impact of sublethal doses of 4 pesticides on size and morphology of the honeybee worker’s hypopharyngeal glands. This gland plays an essential role in brood care by young workers, and thus colony growth. Contaminating 7 day old caged bees, we sampled after 1 day and 1 week for Captan-, Imidacloprid- and Indoxacarb-treated bees and after 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7 days for Fenoxyc...... hiện toàn bộ
The development of HopGuard® as a winter treatment against Varroa destructor in colonies of Apis melliferaApidologie - Tập 46 - Trang 748-759 - 2015
Eva Rademacher, Marika Harz, Saskia Schneider
The development of new veterinary medicinal products to control Varroa destructor is very important for the successful management of honey bee colonies. We tested natural plant compounds (hop acids) as active ingredients for a new veterinary drug for Varroa control. Tolerability of bees and efficacy against mites was tested in the laboratory and in the field. In laboratory tests, hop beta acids we...... hiện toàn bộ
Stingless bee honey (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Meliponini): a review of quality control, chemical profile, and biological potentialApidologie - Tập 52 - Trang 113-132 - 2021
Edineide Cristina A. Souza, Cristiano Menezes, Adriana Flach
Products made by bees are well-known for their beneficial properties and nutritional value. This association has been proven by scientific studies that describe their composition and biological activities. The aim of this study is to portray the state of the art on research regarding stingless bee honey. The search for standards that guide the trade of these products is still portrayed as a future...... hiện toàn bộ
Composition of volatiles from fermenting pollen dough and attractiveness to the small hive beetle Aethina tumida, a parasite of the honeybee Apis melliferaApidologie - Tập 38 - Trang 380-389 - 2007
Baldwyn Torto, Richard T. Arbogast, Hans Alborn, Alonso Suazo, Dennis van Engelsdorp, Drion Boucias, James H. Tumlinson, Peter E. A. Teal
The response of the small hive beetle (SHB), Aethina tumida Murray, to volatiles from a pollen-based diet conditioned by the feeding of 100 adult virgin female or male SHBs (4–8 weeks old) for 1, 3, 7 or 14 days is described and compared to that of the same diet inoculated with the yeast Kodamaea ohmeri (NRRL Y-30722), isolated from the beetle. In a wind tunnel, volatiles from pollen dough conditi...... hiện toàn bộ
