Published in 2018 at "Ecotoxicology"

DOI: 10.1007/s10646-018-1973-x

Abstract: Carbamate (CB) and organophosphorus (OP) pesticides are commonly detected in aquatic ecosystems and predominantly occur as mixtures of varying complexity. These pesticides inhibit the activity of total cholinesterase (ChE) and thus have the potential to… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Insect Behavior"

DOI: 10.1007/s10905-018-9672-2

Abstract: The removal of Varroa destructor was assessed in Russian honey bee (RHB) colonies with known levels of Varroa Sensitive Hygienic (VSH) and brood removal activities. The expression of grooming behaviour using individual bees was also… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of Asia-pacific Entomology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.aspen.2019.08.005

Abstract: Abstract To control Varroa destructor, an ectoparasitic mite, a honey bee line possessing high hygienic behavior (HHB) against this mite has been bred in South Korea. However, a method that can diagnose and assess the… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Genomics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ygeno.2021.05.028

Abstract: Varroa destructor is an ectoparasite mite that attacks bees leading to colony disorders worldwide. microRNAs (miRNAs) are key molecules used by eukaryotes to post-transcriptional control of gene expression. Nevertheless, still lack information about V. destructor… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-85279-6

Abstract: The ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor remains a great threat for the beekeeping industry, for example contributing to excessive winter colony loss in Canada. For decades, beekeepers have sequentially used the registered synthetic varroacides tau-fluvalinate, coumaphos,… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "International Journal of Acarology"

DOI: 10.1080/01647954.2024.2388263

Abstract: ABSTRACT Six Corsican essential oils (EOs) from Humulus lupulus were studied for their activity against Varroa destructor adults and Apis mellifera pupae. The GC/MS analysis of EOs showed that the major compounds of all accessions… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of Economic Entomology"

DOI: 10.1093/jee/toac120

Abstract: Abstract Resistance to traditional synthetic compounds by Varroa destructor Anderson andTrueman and shortcomings of the organic acid class of acaracides commonly used in varroa management requires continual development of new controls. V. destructor, however, are… read more here.
