Loss rates of honey bee colonies during winter 2017/18 in 36 countries participating in the COLOSS survey, including effects of forage sources

TL;DR: Evaluation of six different forage sources as potential risk factors for colony loss indicated that intensive foraging on any of five of these plant sources was associated with significantly higher winter losses, although this finding requires further study and explanation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Honey bee colony winter loss rates for 35 countries participating in the COLOSS survey for winter 2018–2019, and the effects of a new queen on the risk of colony winter loss

TL;DR: Managed honey bee colony loss rates over winter 2018/19 resulting from using the standardised COLOSS questionnaire in 35 countries are presented, and it is found that, overall, larger beekeeping operations with more than 150 colonies experienced significantly lower losses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Africanized honey bees (Apis mellifera) have low infestation levels of the mite Varroa destructor in different ecological regions in Mexico.

TL;DR: This is the first study that demonstrates the effects of Africanization and ecological environment on V. destructor infestation rates in honey bee colonies in North America and there were no differences in bee population or capped brood between genotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of two beta adrenergic agonists and feeding duration on feedlot performance and carcass characteristics of finishing lambs

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of feed supplementation with the β-adrenergic agonists (β-AA) ractopamine hydrochloride (RH) and zilpaterol hydro chloride (ZH) for the last 14, 28, or 42 days of feeding period, on growth performance and carcass characteristics of finishing lambs were evaluated.
