Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, with the development of large-scale agriculture and the use of pesticides and fertilizers, bees are subjected to environmental pressure from pesticides and other exogenous substances to varying degrees, resulting in changes in their collection and other behaviors. There are too many factors, which make it difficult to detect the change of its collection ability from the field level. Although the observation of various environmental pressures can be used to evaluate the changes in the behavior of bees leaving the hive, the manifestation of collection ability is not limited to bees. The nesting behavior itself is also affected by many factors such as collection frequency, so how to find a reasonable evaluation system is particularly important

Embodiment 1

[0026] The simple device of embodiment 1 indoor measuring honeybee collecting ability

[0027] The simple device, such as figure 1 , figure 2 Shown, comprise casing (1), honeycomb (4), camera device (5); The front and back walls of described casing are gauze, and all the other four sides are then planks; The top surface of described casing is provided with entrance ( 3), the side wall is provided with several small holes as feeding holes (2), and the front wall is also provided with a zipper (7); the honeycomb is hung and fixed in the box cavity with iron wires, and the camera is located above the feeding hole And fixed on the inner wall of the box. A flashlight is also provided on the top surface of the box body as a light source (6).

Embodiment 2

[0029] Utilize the simple device described in embodiment 1 to measure the collection ability of honeybee indoors, concrete operation is as follows:

[0030] (1) Before the start of the test, the weight W1 of the honeycomb was accurately weighed to be 26g, and then put into the lower part of the box cavity, and fixed with iron wire; at the same time, a sufficient amount of 50% sugar water, Pollen, salt water, clean water and other substances for bees to feed on; introduce the bee group from the bee entrance on the top of the box, place an enzyme label at the feeding hole on the side of the box, and turn on the camera device;

[0031] The bee group includes 50 worker bees just out of the room, 7 days old, 15 days old and 21 days old;

[0032] (2) From nine o'clock in the morning, record the feeding behavior of bees, the content of the record is the number of bee feeding in the first five minutes of each hour, until the end of the record at 6 o'clock in the afternoon. The record...

Abstract

The invention provides a simple device for measuring the collecting capacity of bees indoors and an evaluation method. The simple device comprises a box body, a honeycomb and a photographing device. An inlet is formed in the top face of the box body, a feeding hole is formed in the side wall of the box body, and a zipper is arranged on the front wall of the box body. The honeycomb is suspended in a cavity of the box body, and the photographing device is located above the feeding hole and fixed to the inner side wall of the box body. The simple device conforms to the physiological and living habits of the bees, and has the advantages of being easy to install and convenient to operate. The device can well simulate field collecting behaviors of the bees, and therefore the collecting capacity of the bees can be objectively and accurately evaluated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a simple device for indoor testing of honeybee collection ability and a testing method thereof, belonging to the technical field of bee breeding. Background technique [0002] Honey bees lead a social life. A normal bee colony consists of a queen bee, tens of thousands of worker bees and hundreds of drones. The queen bee, worker bees and drones are collectively called three types of bees. In the bee colony, the queen bee is responsible for laying eggs, the worker bees are responsible for keeping eggs warm, cleaning the hive, collecting food, and feeding, while the male bees are mainly responsible for mating. Among them, worker bees have the ability to collect pollen and nectar, and at the same time, complete the process of transferring pollen from one flower to another, and can store food when the food source is abundant. Therefore, the existence of worker bees can not only provide humans with a large amount of nutritious, nut...
