Abstract
Dünya genelinde bal arılarının en önemli paraziti olarak bilinen Varroa destructor Anderson & Trueman ve V. jacobsoni (Asya bal arısı Apis cerena’ya özgüdür), arılardan hemolenf emerek kolonilerin zayıflamasına, hatta önlem alınmayan durumlarda bulaşmayı takiben birkaç yıl içerisinde sönmesine neden olabilmektedirler. Arıcılıkta önemli kayıplara yol açan parazit ile mücadelede ciddi programlara gereksinim duyulmaktadır ki bu noktada parazitin etkili bir şekilde teşhisi büyük önem taşımaktadır. Varroosis’in tanısı amacı ile geliştirilmiş birçok yöntem bulunmaktadır; bunlardan, uygulama kolaylığı ve iyi sonuç vermesinden dolayı % 70’lik etil alkol ile ergin arıların 30 dk çalkalanması esasına dayanan testler özel konuma sahiptir. Bu çalışmada, geliştirilen özel kap içerisine alınan arılar %70’lik etil alkolde el yardımıyla belli aralıklarla çalkalanmış ve kap dibine düşen parazitler çalkalamanın 1., 3. ve 5. dk’larında sayılmışlardır. Numunelerin ayrıntılı laboratuar muayeneleri sonucunda, incelenen 10 koloniden 8’inde 5 dk’lık çalkalama ile %100 başarıya ulaşıldığı anlaşılmıştır. Sonuç olarak, düzenlenen yeni teşhis kabı sayesinde, oldukça kısa bir sürede, pratik olarak etkili bir parazitemi saptamasının yapılabileceği görülmüştür.
Varroa destructor Anderson & Trueman which is known as the most important parasite of the honey-bee throughout the World, may cause the weakening of the colonies by sucking haemolymph from the bees and even in the situations where the precautions are not taken, cause them to be collapsed within a few years following the infection. Serious programs are needed in the combat with the parasites which cause important losses in the apiculture and at this point effective identification of the parasite carries a large importance. There are many methods developed for the diagnosis of the Varroa. Among these the tests based on basis of shaking the adult bee within ethyl alcohol of 70% for 30 minutes has a special place because of its easy application and giving good results. In this study, the bees taken into the developed special pot were shaken by hand inside the ethyl alcohol of 70%, with definite intervals and the parasites which fell to the bottom of the pot were counted in the 1st, 3rd and 5th minutes of the shaking. As the result of the detailed laboratory examinations of the samples, it is understood that 100% success was reached in the 8 of the 10 colonies with a shaking for 5 minutes. As the result, with the help of the arranged new identification pot, it is seen that an effective parasitemia determination can be made practically within a rather short time.
