Inter-colony distance of Apis mellifera significantly affects colony numbers of the parasitic mite Varroa destructor.

A path for rational discoveries in apitherapy. Scientific based evidence supporting the nutritional, physiological and health claims of bee products.

In the early 1980's the infamous Africanised honeybees, or killer bees, were spreading through South America.

We determined the efficacy of the natural chemical oxalic acid (OA) in killing phoretic mites on adult worker bees under field conditions in southern England.

Honey bee (Apis mellifera) drones and workers show differences in morphology, physiology, and behavior. Because the functions of drones are more related to colony reproduction, and those of workers relate to both survival and reproduction, we hypothesize that the microclimate for worker brood is more precisely regulated than that of drone brood

The EBA wants to cooperate with everyone, therefore we are joining Apimondia immedi-ately, and we want to connect the entire European continent (not just the EU) and all bee-keepers, regardless of their country of origin and the size of their beekeeping practice.
