“…Low rates of mite infestation in African-derived honey bee colonies have been associated with a number of factors, including high swarming and migratory behavior (Otis, 1991), high levels of expression of hygienic behavior (Guerra Jr. et al, 2000;Vandame et al, 2002) or grooming behavior (Moretto et al, 1993(Moretto et al, , 1997Arechavaleta-Velasco and Guzmán-Novoa, 2001;Guzmán-Novoa et al, 2012), reduced susceptibility to mite invasion and reproduction (Ritter and De Jong, 1984;Guzmán-Novoa et al, 1996;Medina and Martin, 1999;Mondragón et al, 2006), reduced cell size (Message and Gonçalves, 1995;Piccirillo and De Jong, 2003), and other factors of less relevance.…”

“…Grooming behavior has been studied in A. mellifera and was shown to occur at a lower frequency than that in A. cerana (Bienefeld et al, 1999). There have also been reported that mites were injured by worker bees using their mandibles (Arechavaleta-Velasco and Guzmán-Novoa, 2001). Worker bees of A. cerana (nurse-aged worker bees) can also detect capped broods infested with V. destructor; the bees open infested cells to remove the mites.…”

“…The genetic mechanisms underlying the resistance to Varroa mites remain unclear. Resistant and susceptible lines of A. mellifera have been used to study gene expression and identify resistant genes using microarrays (Navajas et al, 2008;Parker et al, 2012) and to identify chromosomal regions containing genes that affect specific traits using quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping (Guzman-Novoa et al, 2011;Behrens et al, 2012;Arechavaleta-Velasco and Guzmán-Novoa, 2001;Tsuruda et al, 2012). However, it is difficult to compare these studies because they used different breeding lines of bees with different genetic backgrounds.…”

“…Evidence for this has been shown both at the colony level (Arechavaleta-Velasco & Guzmán-Novoa, 2001;Guzmán-Novoa, Emsen, Unger, Espinosa-Montaño, & Petukhova, 2012;Mondragó n, Spivak, & Vandame, 2005;Rinderer et al, 2001) and through assays inoculating individual bees with mites (Aumeier, 2001;Büchler, Drescher, & Tornier, 1992;Fries, Huazhen, Wei, & Jin, 1996;Guzmán-Novoa et al, 2012;Peng, Fang, Xu, & Ge, 1987). These are reviewed in detail by Rinderer et al (2013), and also see Pritchard (2016).…”
