is a real challenger for beekeepers and scientists: fragile out of the hive, tenacious inside a bee colony. From all the research done on the topic, we have learned that a better understanding of this organism in its relationship with the bee but also for itself is necessary. Its biology relies mostly on semiochemicals for reproduction, nutrition, or orientation. Many treatments have been developed over the years based on hard or soft acaricides or even on biocontrol techniques. To date, no real sustainable solution exists to reduce the pressure of the mite without creating resistances or harming honeybees. Consequently, the development of alternative disruptive tools against the parasitic life cycle remains open. It requires the combination of both laboratory and field results through a holistic approach based on health biomarkers. Here, we advocate for a more integrative vision of research, where in vitro and field studies are more systematically compared and compiled. Therefore, after a brief state-of-the-art about the mite's life cycle, we discuss what has been done and what can be done from the laboratory to the field against through an integrative approach.
对养蜂人和科学家来说，它都是一个真正的挑战：在蜂巢外脆弱，在蜂群内顽强。从关于这个主题的所有研究中，我们了解到，有必要更好地理解这种生物与蜜蜂的关系以及它自身的情况。它的生物学特性主要依赖于用于繁殖、营养或定向的信息素。多年来，人们基于硬杀螨剂、软杀螨剂甚至生物防治技术开发了许多治疗方法。迄今为止，还没有真正可持续的解决方案来降低螨虫的压力而不产生抗性或伤害蜜蜂。因此，开发针对寄生生命周期的替代性破坏工具仍然是开放的。这需要通过基于健康生物标志物的整体方法将实验室和实地结果结合起来。在这里，我们主张对研究有更综合的看法，即更系统地比较和汇编体外研究和实地研究。因此，在简要介绍螨虫生命周期的最新情况后，我们将通过综合方法讨论从实验室到实地针对螨虫已经做了什么以及可以做什么。
