Our team is committed to preserving honeybees by limiting infection of beehives by these mites. The aim of our project is to create a bacterium able to bait and eliminate the parasite using the Synthetic Biology tools and philosophy. The engineered bacterium, named ApiColi, will be safely placed in a trap and will express alternatively an attractant molecule and a poison for the <i>Varroa destructor</i>, in agreement with the honeybee life cycle. Our trap will be sealed to avoid any contact of the microorganism with the bees and the environment. We hope that our concept will help to reduce the decrease in bee populations and its disastrous consequences.<br><br><br><br>

<h4>Tips</h4>
 
−
<p>This wiki will be your team’s first interaction with the rest of the world, so here are a few tips to help you get started: </p>
 
−
<ul>
 
−
<li>State your accomplishments! Tell people what you have achieved from the start. </li>
 
−
<li>Be clear about what you are doing and how you plan to do this.</li>
 
−
<li>You have a global audience! Consider the different backgrounds that your users come from.</li>
 
−
<li>Make sure information is easy to find; nothing should be more than 3 clicks away.  </li>
 
−
<li>Avoid using very small fonts and low contrast colors; information should be easy to read.  </li>
 
−
<li>Start documenting your project as early as possible; don’t leave anything to the last minute before the Wiki Freeze. For a complete list of deadlines visit the <a href="https://2015.igem.org/Calendar_of_Events">iGEM 2015 calendar</a> </li>

"Beware varroa: Apicoli is guarding the beehive!!"

Easter egg



Apis mellifera, the most efficient and widespread honey producing species, is heavily affected by the mite Varroa destructor. This pathogen is actually one of the most important cause of death for domestic bees. Indeed, according to beekeepers, up to 50% of the swarms can be lost every year because of this parasite, causing tremendous economic damages.

35%

Percentage of hives disapearing every year in the US*

  • *INRA

    • 70%

    Honey production loss in France since 1995*

  • *UNAF

    • 30,000

    Number of hives lost every year in France since 1995*

  • *UNAF

    • Our team is committed to preserving honeybees by limiting infection of beehives by these mites. The aim of our project is to create a bacterium able to bait and eliminate the parasite using the Synthetic Biology tools and philosophy. The engineered bacterium, named ApiColi, will be safely placed in a trap and will express alternatively an attractant molecule and a poison for the Varroa destructor, in agreement with the honeybee life cycle. Our trap will be sealed to avoid any contact of the microorganism with the bees and the environment. We hope that our concept will help to reduce the decrease in bee populations and its disastrous consequences.
