Abstract

American foulbrood (AFB) is one of the most devastating diseases
of the honeybee colonies. Antibiotics (oxytetracyclin, tylosin and sodium
salphte demidin) and essential oils thymol oil (
Thymo vulgaris L.) and
cinnamon oil
(Cinnamomum zeylanicum). were evaluated efficacy for
controlling American foulbrood disease attacking honeybee colonies.
Antibiotics recorded to decrease the pathological consequences of
Paenibacillus larvae subspecies larvae approached to (0.0%) after two
weeks from the treated start. It is preferable to alternate the use of different
antibiotics in order to prevent the development of drug resistance and
given as to long term American foulbrood control and tactics for
resistance management, whereas the essential oils were less efficacy for
the inhibition of
P. larvae subsp < /span>. larvae growth. AFB disease returned to
appearance infected honeybee colonies after 65 days of thymol and
cinnamon oils treatments ending.
