摘要: ABSTRACT The European honey bee (Apis mellifera) is a highly valuable, semi-free-ranging managed agricultural species. While the number of hives has been increasing, declines in overwinter survival, and onset colony collapse disorder 2006, precipitated large amount research on bees’ health an effort to isolate causative factors. A workshop was convened during which experts were introduced formal causal analysis approach compare 39 candidate causes against specified criteria evaluate their relationship reduced survivability observed since 2006 commercial bees used California almond industry. Candidate categorized as probable, possible, or unlikely; several indeterminate due lack information. Due time limitations, full not completed at workshop. In this article, examples are provided illustrate process provide preliminary findings, using thre...
