Bal Arısı (Apis mellifera L.) Kolonilerinde Varroa destructorEnfestasyonu ile Mücadelede Farklı Organik Bileşiklerin Kullanımı ve Koloni Performansına Etkileri

Bu çalışma 2010 yılında Erzurum Bölgesi şartlarına en iyi uyum sağlamış hâkim arı tipinden kontrollü olarak yetiştirilen ana arılarla oluşturulan kolonilerde; oksalik asit, tymol ve laktik asidin Varroa destructor enfestasyonu ile mücadelede etkinliği ve koloni gelişimi üzerine etkileri araştırılmıştır. Deneme kolonileri rastgele seçilmiş ve her gurupta 10 koloni olacak şekilde dört çalışma gurubu (oksalik asit, thymol, laktik asit ve kontrol grubu) oluşturulmuştur. Sonbaharda gruplarda Varroa destructor bulaşıklık değeri, kuluçka alanları, arı varlığı, organik asit etkinliği, kapalı gözlerdeki Varroa destructor sayısı ve ilaçlama sonrası ölen ergin arı sayısı belirlenmiştir. Deneme sonucunda oksalik asit, tymol ve laktik asit grubunun Varroa destructor enfestasyonuna karşı etkinlikleri sırasıyla %84.90±5.60, %90.10±3.03, %79.50±3.78 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Alınan sonuçlara göre; Varroa destructor için kullanılan organik bileşiklerin etkinlik dereceleri arasındaki fark istatistiksel olarak önemli (P

In Honey Bee Colonies (Apis mellifera L.), Usage of Different Organics Compounds and Their Effects to Colony Performance Against Varroa destructor Infestation

In this study, the efficiency oxalic, thymol and lactic acid against Varroa destructor mite and their effects on colony development in colonies established by queen bees in 2010, Erzurum region were searched. Test colonies were chosen randomly and four working groups (oxalic acid, thymol, lactic acid and control group) from ten colonies in each group were formed. In autumn, mite infestation level, sealed brood areas, bee population, organic acid efficiency, Varroa destructor number of worker brood area and the number of dead adult bee after medicine in groups were determined. At the experimental result, the efficiencies of oxalic acid, thymol and lactic acid group against Varroa destructor were obtained respectively %84.90±5.60, %90.10±3.03, and % 79.50±3.78. According to obtained results, difference between organic compounds efficiency degrees for Varroa destructor were found statistically important (P<0.05). Also, after medicine died adult bee number in oxalic acid group were different from thymol and lactic acid group (P<0.05)
