Hi Dee
I read the article Hanel, H., and N. Koeniger 1986. Possible regulation of the
reproduction of the honey bee mite Varroa jacobsoni by a
host's hormone: juvenile hormone III. J. Insect Physiol.
32:791-98
However, Marla Spivak in Mites and the Honeybee, p.208 says this hypothesis
has been disproved.
>>>>> So it is easy for you to look up, whether it scientific publications
or even the American Bee Journal
I searched the Net in vain for any reference to long- or short-lived mites.
Could you please cite a specific source?
Thanks,
Randy Oliver
