The investigation of honey bee pesticide poisoning incidents in Czechia
2021, ChemosphereCitation Excerpt :In the other colonies, pyrethroids were absent, or tau-fluvalinate was present (discussed below) at low concentrations with respect to its toxicity. It has been demonstrated that honey bees exposed to pyrethroids exhibit impairment of colony vitality (Bendahou et al., 1999), reduced acetylcholinesterase activity (Badiou et al., 2008) and inhibited olfactory learning performance (Zhou et al., 2011). The significant problem of pyrethroids is their potential synergistic effect with fungicides applied to flowering crops (Colin and Belzunces, 1992; Pilling and Jepson, 1993; Pilling et al., 1995; Vandame and Belzunces, 1998; Fletcher and Barnett, 2003; Wernecke et al., 2019).
Treating honey bees with an extremely low frequency electromagnetic field and pesticides: Impact on the rate of disappearance of azoxystrobin and λ-cyhalothrin and the structure of some functional groups of the probabilistic molecules
2020, Environmental ResearchCitation Excerpt :Velmurugan et al. (2018), using FTIR, showed that fenvalerate, from the pyrethroid group, affects lipid acyl chain disorders, can reduce lipid levels in tissues, and also affects structural changes in the structure of β-harmonica. Bendahou et al. (1999) showed the presence of hypertrehalosemia and reducing ATPase activity in bees with long-term exposure to cypermethrin (from the pyrethroid group). Pyrethroids also cause biochemical changes in mice, among other organisms, causing a significant increase in glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase, glutamate pyruvate transaminase, and alkaline phosphatase activity (Dahamna et al., 2011).
Global transcriptome analysis reveals relevant effects at environmental concentrations of cypermethrin in honey bees (Apis mellifera)
2020, Environmental PollutionCitation Excerpt :Cypermethrin also exhibits sublethal effects in bees, including impaired olfaction and learning (Decourtye et al., 2005), disorientation and desertion from the hive (Thompson, 2003). Long-term exposure of honey bees to cypermethrin-contaminated sucrose syrup (12.5 ng/mL) causes mortality and biochemical effects (Bendahou et al., 1999). Cypermethrin concentrations can reach up to 49 ng/g in pollen (Mullin et al., 2010), 20–30 ng/g in honey or nectar (Sanchez-Bayo and Goka, 2014), 49 ng/g in exposed honey bees (Wiest et al., 2011), or up to 36.3 ng/g (Chauzat et al., 2006) and 131 ng/g (Mullin et al., 2010) in wax.
Effects of Bacillus thuringiensis strains virulent to Varroa destructor on larvae and adults of Apis mellifera
2017, Ecotoxicology and Environmental SafetyCitation Excerpt :Although no significant differences were observed for the bees treated for two days with cypermethrin, the bees consumed less syrup at high concentrations, and compared with the control group, locomotor activity was reduced more than 30% in bees fed with 15 μg/kg of cypermethrin. According to some reports, cypermethrin at low doses causes problems in carbohydrate metabolism (Bendahou et al., 1999); thus, the bees are deprived of a primary source of energy, which may limit foraging activity, generate problems in dance communication and ultimately affect hive development and cause its death (El Hassani et al., 2008; Lambin et al., 2001). Therefore, unlike cypermethrin, B. thuringiensis did not endanger the performance of bees in the different tasks within the hive.
Effects of pyrethroids on neuronal excitability of adult honeybees Apis mellifera
2011, Pesticide Biochemistry and PhysiologyCitation Excerpt :The honeybee is extremely susceptible to insecticides as its genome has fewer genes encoding xenobiotic detoxifying enzymes compared to other insects [2]. It has been demonstrated previously that honeybees exposed to pyrethroid pesticides exhibited an impairment of colony vitality [3], reduced acetylcholinesterase activity [4,5], and poorer foraging and olfactory learning performance [6]. In the present study, we found that queens of honeybee colonies fed with bifenthrin (but not deltamethrin or fluvalinate) lay multiple eggs in one cell, in comparison with one egg per cell in the control.
