GENE-KNOCKDOWN IN THE HONEY BEE MITE VARROA DESTRUCTOR BY A NON-INVASIVE APPROACH: STUDIES ON A GLUTATHIONE S-TRANSFERASE

Gene-knockdown in the honey bee mite Varroa destructor by a non-invasive approach: studies on a glutathione S-transferase

Abstract Background The parasitic mite Varroa destructor is considered the major pest of the European honey bee (Apis mellifera) and responsible for declines in honey bee populations worldwide.Exploiting the full potential of gene sequences becoming available for V.destructor requires adaptation of modern molecular biology approaches to this non-mo

Erosion after an extreme storm event in an arid fluvial system of the southern Atacama Desert: an assessment of the magnitude, return time, and conditioning factors of erosion and debris flow generation

The contribution of Roper Girth an individual extreme storm event to long-term erosion rates has been estimated for the first time in the Atacama Desert.A mean erosion of 1.3 mm has been calculated for the March 2015 event that impacted the southernmost part of the Atacama Desert.The estimated erosion is consistent with millennial erosion ra
