Description
A pipeline for streamlined development and testing of novel controls for the honey BEE parasitic mite varroa destructor - the ultimate goal of this project is to develop and confirm compounds for registration and licensing for beekeeper use. To meet this goal, the project has three research objectives (ROS). Objective 1 (RO 1) will use laboratory trials to screen dozens of candidate compounds and assess their efficacy against varroa mites and safety for honey bees. Objective 2 (RO 2) will take compounds showing promise from laboratory trials, and run field trials using these compounds in whole honey BEE colonies. The third research objective (RO 3) is to elucidate mechanisms conferring varroa mite resistance to current varroacides and help inform decisions on tested compounds.
