Control

soda_20170202

The use of antibiotics is not permitted in Switzerland; moreover, no other medication exists to combat European foul brood. Hives with symptoms must therefore be destroyed in order to limit the outbreak, and the contaminated material must be sanitised. Since prevention is the best cure, early detection is desirable. Numerous studies have been undertaken and documents have been created at the Swiss Bee Research Centre and elsewhere to draw the attention of beekeepers to these problems and inform them about the causes and the control measures to be implemented.

Informations supplémentaires

My early investigations focused on the conservation of wild pollinators.

Building on this interest, I am now pursuing a PhD on the impact of managed honeybees on wild bees in agroecosystems, through competition for floral resources, as part of the BEENERGIA project (Bridging Ecological and socio-Economic scieNces to Enhance our undeRstandinG of the Interactions between mAnaged and wild bees).

As a growing number of studies suggest that bee management may contribute to wild bee declines, the goal of my PhD is to uncover the mechanisms of floral resource competition and to understand their consequences on the reproductive success of wild bee species.
