Description

Method and device for detecting bee mite infection rate
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of bee breeding, in particular to a method and a device for detecting bee mite infection rate.
Background
The bees are important economic insects, and the social benefit and the ecological benefit of bee breeding are very obvious. The effect of bees on the sustainable development of the ecological environment is mainly embodied in the pollination aspect of the flowering plants, the propagation of the flowering plants is ensured, the diversity of plants and pollinating insects is realized, and the method is an important condition for keeping ecological balance and ecological sustainable development.
The varroa destructor is the most serious enemy harmful to the health of bees and is a prominent problem in bee breeding production. The varroa destructor is parasitic mite outside the bee body, is a large enemy of the domesticated bee, and is found to be parasitic on some varieties of western bees and eastern bees at present. The varroa jacobsoni parasitizes on adult bee bodies to suck body fluid (hemolymph), and when the varroa jacobsoni is slightly harmful, bee collection is influenced, so that bees are deformed, wings are rolled, and the service life is shortened; in severe cases, a large number of pupae in the bee colony can not emerge, new bees can not be produced, the colony vigor is reduced, even the whole colony dies, serious loss is brought to the bee colony, and the bee-keeping benefit is remarkably reduced.
The main method for preventing varroa destructor is a chemical method at present, but the use of the dosage is critical. If the dosage is too much, the newly emerged worker bees are damaged, and chemical medicine residues in bee products are caused; the dosage is too small, and the effect of removing mites cannot be achieved. Therefore, mastering the bee mite infection rate of bee colonies is very key for guiding the application of the bee mite prevention and treatment of the bee colonies.
In addition, the detection of bee mite infestations in different bee colonies is also the main method for identifying mite-resistant bee colonies.
The bee is small, the number of worker bees in a bee colony is large, the size of the large bee mite is smaller, the large bee mites are collected from the bee colony, and the statistics of the bee mite infection rate is time-consuming and labor-consuming. Heretofore, researchers used frosting to detect the infection of bee mites in bee colonies, and the main content of the method is to take about 100 bees from the bee colonies to be detected, put the bees into a detection cup, add frosting, shake, take out the bees, and count the number of the bee mites in the frosting. The method can detect bee mite infection of bee colony, but has the disadvantages of needing to operate the detection samples one by one and having to operate on the sampling site. Each sample requires about 30 minutes of testing time to remove the sampling process, and in the case of a large number of samples to be tested, a large amount of time is consumed; meanwhile, when the bee field is located in a remote area, if all detection tasks cannot be completed in the same day, the bee field needs to be repeatedly returned, and manpower and material resources are consumed.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the problems in the prior art, the invention provides a method and a device for detecting bee mite infection rate, which can efficiently and accurately detect the bee mite infection rate of a bee colony by adopting a random simple sampling method and accurately reflect the bee mite infection condition of the whole bee colony.

Further, the rim of the sampling cup also comprises a rim; the width of the edge is 1-3 cm.
Further, the washing powder is alkaline washing powder or neutral washing powder;
furthermore, the content of the sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate in the washing powder is 20-30%.
Further, the washing powder is packaged by water-soluble paper.
In a second aspect, the invention provides a bee mite separating device, a sampling cup and a counting cup;
the cup bottom of the sampling cup is net-shaped, and the aperture is 50-70 meshes; the sampling cup further comprises an outer rim;
the cup mouths of the sampling cup and the counting cup face the same direction, and the outer edge of the sampling cup is positioned above the cup mouth of the counting cup.
Further, the outer diameter of the sampling cup is smaller than the inner diameter of the counting cup; the height of the sampling cup is smaller than that of the counting cup.
Further, the outer edge is 1-3 cm; and/or the counting cup is a cylindrical body with a sealed bottom.
Furthermore, the counting cup can be a column body with various shapes, such as a cylinder, a square column body or an irregular column body, as long as the outer edge capacity of the sampling cup can be lapped on the cup mouth of the counting cup.
The invention has the following beneficial effects:
the method adopts a specific sampling cup and a method of randomly and simply sampling in a counting cup bee colony to detect the infection condition of 500 bee mites, counts the infection rate of the bee mites in the bee colony, and can accurately reflect the bee mite infection condition of the whole bee colony.
