Stingless bees are important pollinators in tropical and subtropical areas. The breeding of native stingless bee species from the Meliponini tribe to obtain honey, pollen, geopropolis (meliponiculture) is a promising activity Brazil with economic, social, environmental impacts. can share food sources Apis mellifera other insects that be vectors pathogens. Here, we investigated seven (Melipona quadrifasciata anthidioides, Melipona scutellaris, Nannotrigona testaceicornis, Partamona helleri,...
Approximately 72 pathogenic viruses have been described affecting the health of Apis mellifera colonies around world, causing weakening and mortality honey bees. The presence in Africanized bees (AHB) Brazil is poorly studied there a lack information about occurrence these country. Therefore, aim this study was to evaluate AHB Brazil. A total 84 A. from apiaries located 15 different Brazilian states were evaluated detect seven viral species (DWV, BQCV, IAPV, ABPV, CBPV, KBV, SBV) by...
We aimed to evaluate the occurrence and level of infestation by Varroa destructor in Apis mellifera from different regions Köppen-Geiger climate typologies Brazil. evaluated a total 159 managed colonies A. (156 Africanized honey bees – AHB + 3 European EHB colonies) distributed across all five Brazilian (Northern, Northeastern, Midwest, Southern, Southeastern) 2014 2017. In each colony, approximately 300 adult were collected detect calculate mite parasitism level, are not treated against...
Acarapis woodi Rennie (Acari: Tarsonemidae) is an endoparasitic mite, which can affect the respiratory system in honey bee Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera: Apidae) causing mortality. This mite was first recorded Brazil 1970s, but its current presence unclear. Therefore, we evaluated of A. Africanized Brazil, to update occurrence data this parasite, 47 yr after detection. We examined a total 153 colonies, from 15 different states using dissection and molecular techniques. study detection The...
Bioproductos de la industria yuca: sustratos alternativos para producción ciclodextrina glucosiltransferasa por alcalófilo Bacillus trypoxylicola SM-02 En el presente trabajo estudiamos uso licor maíz fermentado (LMF), harina cáscara yuca (HCY) y aguas residuales ciclodextina glicosiltransferasa (CGTase) un nuevo aislado en fermentación sumergida. Los experimentos se realizaron Diseño Central Compuesto Rotativo 22 totalizando 11 ensayos. La mayor actividad enzimática 352.53 U/mL obtuvo con...
Existem duas espécies de Vairimorpha spp. que pode acometer a Apis mellifera. apis e V. ceranae são responsáveis por causar doença nosemose, é considerada uma das doenças mais prevalentes economicamente devastadoras. Este trabalho teve como objetivo registrar presença o nível infecção em operárias A. mellifera provenientes colônias instaladas apiários comerciais na Região da Bacia do Jacuípe, Bahia, Brasil. Foram realizadas coletas abelhas cinco mensalmente durante um ano. As amostras foram...
