Abstract

Artificial honeybee queen bee rearing is an important part of beekeeping because it helps to re-queen bee colonies on a regular basis, reduces swarming, increases honey production, increases number of colony. The study aim to determine the success rate of emergence of queen bee from artificially grafted larvae in various queen cup sizes, grafting of larvae in concentrated and diluted condition and grafting of larvae in the colonies with and without queen bee. The success of grafted larvae in general, sealing of larvae and emergence of queen bee was 70-73%, 53-61% and 37-41% respectively. The rate of successful grafted larvae, sealing of larvae and emergence of queen bee in dry condition was 58.8%, 46.8% and 44.3% respectively. In wet grafting 76.4%, 70.9% and 51.7% acceptance, sealing and emergence of queen bee respectively. Similarly, more queen bee were emerged from colonies without queen bee than colonies with queen bee conditions. It was found that the success of grafting did not affected by different grafting queen bee cup sizes. Emergence of queen bee was more in wet grafting and grafting of larvae in queen bee less colonies.

蜜蜂蜂后的不同人工饲养方法

人工蜂王饲养是养蜂业的重要组成部分，因为它有助于定期重建蜂群，减少蜂群，增加蜂蜜产量，增加蜂群数量。本研究的目的是确定不同蜂杯大小的人工嫁接幼虫对蜂王羽化的成功率，在浓缩和稀释条件下嫁接幼虫的成功率，以及在有蜂王和没有蜂王的群体中嫁接幼虫的成功率。嫁接幼虫一般成功率为70 ~ 73%，幼虫封口成功率为53 ~ 61%，蜂王羽化成功率为37 ~ 41%。干燥条件下嫁接成活率为58.8%，幼虫封口率为46.8%，蜂王羽化率为44.3%。湿法嫁接中蜂王的接受度、封合度和出苗率分别为76.4%、70.9%和51.7%。同样，没有蜂王的蜂群比有蜂王的蜂群出现更多的蜂王。结果表明，不同的嫁接蜂杯大小对嫁接成功率没有影响。蜂王在湿嫁接中羽化较多，在蜂王较少的群体中嫁接幼虫较多。
