Invasion and infestation rates were not statistically different between honeybee colonies produc ing honey or royal jelly an d the averages for these parameters were 5.79 and 8.54%, respectively. Coloni es producing honey presented a higher (p < 0.05) total and effective reproduction of Varroa than colonies producing royal jelly. There was a negative correlation between levels of invasion and infestation with minimum external temperature, relative humidity and rainfall. The variables month and season influenced the development of the mite, but rates were low and within the range norm ally found in Brazil for Africanized honeybee colonies, which confirm the greater resistance of these honeybees to Varroa destructor than European honeybees. 2015 artículo científico 1806-2636 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=303141017015 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3031 Acta Scientiarum.
