Abstract The risk exposure of bee colonies to the toxicity systemic neonicotinoid insecticides was assessed. Various methods chemical prevention commercial winter and spring oilseed rape crops in field-realistic conditions were taken into account assessment. Pesticides applied accordance with actual agricultural practice. Commercial crop protection products thiamethoxam, clothianidin or imidacloprid used as seed treatment. Formulations containing acetamiprid thiacloprid for spraying. Fifteen...

Abstract Explaining the reasons for increased mortality of honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) in recent years, Europe and North America, has become a global research priority apicultural science. Our project was aimed at determining relationship between environmental conditions, beekeeping techniques, epidemiological situation pathogens, rate colonies. Dead samples were collected by beekeepers from 2421 The examined presence V. destructor, Nosema spp. (Nosema apis ceranae), chronic paralysis...
Abstract The effects to honeybee colonies (Apis mellifera L.) during and after exposure flowering maize (Zea mays L.), grown from seeds coated with clothianidin imidacloprid was assessed in field-realistic conditions. experimental crops were adjacent the other agriculture plants. Honey bee placed three differently protected fields throughout blooming period, thereafter they transferred a stationary apiary. Samples of pollen loads, bread, adult bees collected analyzed for neonicotinoid...
The aim of this study was an examination 240 multifloral honey samples collected from Polish apiaries to determine Clostridium botulinum occurrence. Honey directly after the extraction process. Samples were inoculated by using dilution and centrifugation method. Suspected isolates examined mouse bioassay, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), real-time PCR methods. C. type A B strains detected in 5 (2.1%). Bacterial also that phenotypically similar but did not exhibit ability produce toxins show...
The aim of this study was examination honey samples collected from apiaries situated in all Polish provinces for occurrence Clostridium spp., especially C. perfringens.The carried out on 240 (15 samples/province). Estimation titre, its cultures and perfringens isolate characterisation were performed according to the standard PN-R-64791:1994. A multiplex PCR method detection genes coding cpa (α toxin), cpb (β), cpb2 (β2), etx (ε), iap (ι), cpe (enterotoxin) toxins used.Clostridium spp....
Abstract Screening of the prevalence Paenibacillus larvae spores in honey bee colonies apiaries from 162 districts, belonging to nine provinces was carried out during 2009-2011. The samples were examined by use a culture method. Based on number CFUs grown Columbia sheep blood agar medium, level infection and probability American foulbrood outbreak estimated. Altogether, 6,510 pooled 32,550 located 2,294 collected. P. identified 45% surveyed apiaries. widest distribution found Małopolskie...
Abstract The objective of the research was a comparative assessment infection levels Nosema spp. in honey bees collected from different areas hive. A total 588 bee colonies were sampled spring (April-May) 2015 and 2016 through simultaneous collection dead worker bottom board hive live peripheral combs. microscopic assay composite samples 60 used for detection quantification spores. Consistent positive results laboratory tests (detection spores both samples) achieved 28% surveyed group. In...
