Due to their social behaviour, honey bees can be infected by a wide range of pathogens including the microsporidia Nosema ceranae and bacteria Paenibacillus larvae . The use probiotics as food additives for control or prevention infectious diseases is widely used approach improve human animal health. In this work, we generated mixture four Lactobacillus kunkeei strains isolated from gut microbial community bees, evaluated its potential beneficial effect on adult bees. Its administration in...
Pollinators, including solitary bees, are drastically declining worldwide. Among the factors contributing to this decline, bee pathogens and different land uses of relevance. The link between gut microbiome composition host health has been recently studied for social pollinators (e.g. honeybees), whereas information related bees is sparse. This work aimed at characterization Xylocopa augusti, Eucera fervens Lasioglossum attempted correlate microbial with presence load uses. Solitary were...
The repellent and acaricidal effects of some essential oils from the most typical wild plant species northern Patagonia, Argentina, on Varroa destructor Anderson & Trueman were evaluated using a complete exposure test. Honey bees, Apis mellifera L., mites (five specimens each per dish) introduced in petri dishes having different oil concentrations (from 0.1 to 25 micro cage). Survival bees was registered after 24, 48, 72 h. An attraction/repellence test performed wax tube impregnated with...
SummaryTo investigate the effect of nutritional condition honey bee Apis mellifera on development microsporidian parasite Nosema ceranae under laboratory conditions, newly emerged bees were confined and fed three ad libitum diets: high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) + fresh bread; HFCS a commercial mixture amino acid vitamin, HFCS. On day 7 post-emergence, from each diet treatment individually infected with 4.60 × 104, 2.30 105 or 1.15 106 spores N. ceranae, keeping later same diet. days 3, 6,...
The aim of the present work was to determine in vitro effect T. vulgaris and O. vulgare essential oils against E. granulosus protoscoleces cysts. Essential were added medium resulting thymol final concentrations 10 μ g/mL. had a time-dependent provoking complete loss protoscolex viability after 72 days postincubation. results confirmed at ultrastructure level. Loss infectivity incubated with 60 observed. On other hand, weight cysts recorded mice inoculated treated significantly lower than...
Abstract The essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation from the fruits of Pimpinella anisum L. (green anise) and Foeniculum vulgare Miller (fennel) were analyzed GC GC/MS physicochemical properties. oils P. F. found to be especially rich in (E)-anethole, 96.3% 92.7%, respectively. MICs determined tube dilution method against Paenibacillus larvae. showed values 300 µg/mL 250 μg/mL for vulgare, Both presented great similarity physiochemical properties antimicrobial activity.
