Australian scientists have placed micro-sensors on thousands of bees to track them. The trial aims to stop the transmission of diseases in the northern hemisphere.
Scientists at the Australian National Institute of Science and the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) said that sensors (chips) can help solve the so-called "dwarf of bee colonies" situation, where bees mysteriously disappear from the hive and parasites invade. After the bees go to sleep and refrigerate, scientists will use tweezers to implant sensors weighing about 5 milligrams and measuring about 2.5 square millimeters. Scientists will study the impact of agriculture on the protection of honeybee colonization disorders and bee stings.
CSIRO said in a statement issued on Wednesday that the study will also enable farmers worldwide to understand the important role of bee pollination crops in crops. CSIRO's Paul said in the statement: "Bees play a vital role in nature. They provide free pollination services in agriculture, and various crops rely on them to increase production. Using this sensor, our goal is to understand bees and The relationship between the environment."
Scientists plan to deploy 5,000 bees with sensors on the southern island of Tasmania in the summer. Radio frequency identification sensors work like automotive electronic tags on toll roads and are recorded when insects pass a checkpoint. This will allow scientists to establish three-dimensional images of the movement of insects, a process that will be called "quorum sensing."
Some scientists are working to reduce the sensor's 1 square millimeter so that they can be attached to small insects for wider use.
