Abstract
Esta pesquisa foi realizada com o objetivo de avaliar a existência de efeito tóxico em alimentos protéicos alternativos fornecidos para abelhas Apis mellifera. Medindo-se o tempo médio de mortalidade e o índice de mortalidade de abelhas confinadas, avaliou-se a existência de efeito tóxico do: (a) feno das folhas de mandioca (Manihot esculenta); (b) feno das folhas de leucena (Leucaena leococephala); (c) farinha de vagem de algaroba (Prosopis juliflora); (d) farinha de vagem de bordão-de-velho (Pithecellobium cf. saman); (e) farelo de babaçu (Orbygnia martiana) e (f) sucedâneo do leite para bezerros da marca Purina®. O tempo médio de mortalidade variou de 4,46 a 11,74 e o índice de mortalidade variou de 4,58 a 12,80. Durante o experimento, obsevou-se que as abelhas alimentadas com farinha de bordão-de-velho ficavam envoltas em uma crosta de alimento, morrendo asfixiadas posteriormente. Os resultados demonstraram que a farinha de bordão-de-velho não deve ser fornecida às abelhas. Não foi observado efeito tóxico nos demais alimentos estudados.
The objective of this research was to study toxic effects of alternative feeds for honeybees Apis mellifera. The average mortality time and the mortality index of cagged honeybees were assessed to evaluate any possible toxic effect of: (a) cassava hay (Manihot esculenta); (b) leucaena hay (Leucaena leococephala); (c) mesquite pod meal (Prosopis juliflora); (d) "bordão-de-velho" pod meal (Pithecellobium cf. saman); (e) babassu bran (Orbygnia martiana) and (f) succedaneous for calfskin from Purina®. The mortality time average varied from 4.46 to 11.74 and the mortality index varied between 4.58 and 12.80. It was obseved that honeybees fed with "bordão-de-velho" pod meal got involved by stichy layer of food and died asphyxiated. Results showed that the flour of Pithecellobium cf. saman should not be used for feeding honeybees, considering the early mortality of workers fed with this meal. The other food studied did not show any toxic effect.
