Abstract

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Times New Roman'; min-height: 15.0px} p.p2 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 10.0px 'Times New Roman'} span.s1 {font: 12.0px 'Times New Roman'} This study was carried to determine the efficacy of organic powdered sugar dusting method against to Varroa destructor parasitism in the morning and afternoon hours on April and July. This study was conducted in seven different apiaries located on the province of Hatay – Arsuz. In the each of the apiaries highly V. destructor infested ten experimental colonies and five control colonies were used as totally 105 colonies. Same treatment procedure was done to all trial groups in different months and hours of days. Fallen mites were counted before and after trials. Efficacy of powdered sugar dusting method was determined by Henderson-Tilton formula appli-cation as 39,72 % on the morning trial and 44,26 % on the afternoon trial by distinguishing the mite loads on honeybees. There is not a significant importance between two compared groups at level of p<0.05. The pow-dered sugar dusting can be used as a supporting and organic struggle method for Varroasis during the nectar flow periods against to residue problems and the risk of drug resistances.

Özet

Bu araştırma Varroa destructor ile organik mücadele amacıyla kullanılan pudra şekeri uygulamasının Nisan ve Haziran aylarının sabah ve öğleden sonra saatlerindeki etkinliğinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışma Hatay’a bağlı Arsuz yöresinde yedi farklı arılıkta yürütülmüştür. Her arılıkta Varroa destructor ile yük-sek düzeyde enfeste olduğu belirlenen onar adet koloni deneme amacıyla, beşer adet koloni kontrol amacıyla toplam 105 adet koloni kullanılmıştır.. Deneme grubuna farklı aylar ve saatlerde aynı miktarda pudra şekeri uygulanmıştır. Denemelerin öncesi ve sonrasında V. destructor sayımları gerçekleştirilmiştir. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Times New Roman'; min-height: 15.0px} p.p2 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 10.0px 'Times New Roman'} span.s1 {font: 12.0px 'Times New Roman'} Pudra şekeri uygulamasının etkinliği, tedaviden önce ve sonra arıların üzerindeki akar yükü farklılığını değer-lendiren Henderson-Tilton formülü uygulanarak sabah ortalama % 39,72 öğleden sonra ortalama % 44,26 olarak belirlenmiştir. Karşılaştırılan bu iki etkinlik düzeyi arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır (p<0,05). Varroa destructor enfestasyonu ile nektar akımı dönemlerinde mücadele edilmesi gereken durumlarda kalıntı ve direnç riski taşımayan pudra şekeri uygulaması organik mücadeleye katkı sağlamaktadır.
