Abstract

Bombus arıları tarımsal ve doğal ekosistemlerin en önemli
tozlaştırıcıları arasındadır. Ancak son yıllarda doğal bombus arısı
populasyonları ve tür çeşitliliği bütün dünyada azalmaktadır. Bu durumun nedenlerinden
biri olarak patojenler gösterilmektedir. En sık bildirilen bombus arısı
patojenleri Nosema bombi,Crithidia bombi,
Apicystis bombi mikrosporları ve bir trake akarı olan Locustacarus buchneri’dir. Genellikle bu parazitler koloni kurma,
hayatta kalma ve üreme üzerine olumsuz etkilere sahiptirler. Bu nedenle, bombus
arısı parazitlerinin doğru bir şekilde tanımlanması çok önemlidir. Günümüzde
enfekte bombus arılarını belirlemek amacıyla, güvenilir ve hızlı sonuçlar elde
edilen moleküler yöntemler geliştirilmiştir. Bu derlemede, bombus arılarında en
yaygın görülen parazitler ve moleküler yöntemlerle tespitleri hakkında bilgiler
özetlenmiştir.
