Essay

Both RAPD and multi-measuring statistics methods are used for analysis of the genetic and morphological variability of V. destructor mite populations from different regions of Ukraine. No geographic variations of the parasites from apiaries is found in spite of their capability to infest various races of the honeybees managed in Ukraine. However, these mites are parasites of the forest honeybees A. mellifera, inhabiting hive-logs in Polessky Reserve, and their individual genetic variability is much higher as compared to mite populations parasitizing honeybee races A. mellifera acervorum and A. mellifera carpatica.The morphological variability of varroa mites collected in Ukraine 20 years ago and recently is analysed.
