Fig 7
Flagellum of the honey bee antenna observed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
A. SEM of antennal segments of scape for worker showing antenna and olfactory sensillum B. The number of sensilla placodea on 4, 7, 8 segments in the right antennae of infested and non-infested bees at 0, 5, 10 and 15 days. C. The size of sensilla placodea in the right antennae of infested and non-infested bees 0, 5, 10 and 15 days. For the actual measurement was performed in duplicate (i.e. two biological replicates, A and B) alongside controls.
