Suitability of drone olfactory sensitivity as a selection trait for Varroa-resistance in honeybees.

Scientific reports - 6 Sept 2021

Ivanova Ivelina, Bienefeld Kaspar

Abstract excerpt

The most effective strategy against brood diseases, such as those stemming from infestation by the mite Varroa destructor, is the early detection and removal of sick brood. Recent findings suggest that genes associated with worker bee olfactory perception play a central role in Varroa-sensitive hygiene (VSH). In this study, the odour sensitivity of Apis mellifera drones was examined through proboscis extension...
