The use of A. mellifera drone's olfactory sensitivity towards pathological odours as a selection trait in the breeding against V. destructor

2021-02-26

Abstract excerpt

The most effective strategy against brood diseases, such as infestation by the mite Varroa destructor , is the early detection and removal of sick brood. Recent findings suggest that genes associated with worker bees' olfactory perception play a central role in Varroa -sensitive hygiene (VSH). In the following approach, Apis mellifera drones' odour sensitivity was examined through a standardised Proboscis extensio...
