− | <h1> Varroa-Cula </h1>
| + | |
− | <p> Our Project Varroa-Cula, is about a parasitic disease called Varroasis. Varroasis is caused by Varroa destructor is an ecto-parasite that attacks the honey bees Apis cerana and Apis mellifera. This cause weight loss, deformities, diseases and reduction of life span. Hive collapses and/or colony loses are also major consequences of this disease. To battle with varroas beekeepers use variety of chemicals that damage the bee and decrease the quality of honey. Our aim is to save the larvas from varroas by the using of synthetic biology. The prototype designed by our team can repel Varroa destructor by releasing essential oils. Essential oils contain mixtures of mostly volatile and odorous terpenoid constituents, they are safer and have unfavorable effects on the environment. We expect that, with our designed prototype that contains modified E. Coli varroas will repel from hive just before their attack time.

− | <h4>Advice on writing your Project Description</h4>
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | <p>
| + | |
− | We encourage you to put up a lot of information and content on your wiki, but we also encourage you to include summaries as much as possible. If you think of the sections in your project description as the sections in a publication, you should try to be consist, accurate and unambiguous in your achievements.

| + | |
− | Judges like to read your wiki and know exactly what you have achieved. This is how you should think about these sections; from the point of view of the judge evaluating you at the end of the year.

− | <h4>References</h4>
| + | |
− | <p>iGEM teams are encouraged to record references you use during the course of your research. They should be posted somewhere on your wiki so that judges and other visitors can see how you though about your project and what works inspired you.</p>
