In order to realize the artificial incubation of honeybee larvae, queen bee larvae of Apis mellifer were fed artificially from early larval stage in an incubator under controlled temperature and relative humidity. Different proportions of royal jelly, honey and water were added into the diets. Results showed that when queen bee larvae were incubated in a temperature of 35.5±0.1 °C and relative humidity of 90±2% and fed diet, which contained 70% water and 10% honey their nutritional needs could be met. Before queen bee larvae entered into the pupal stage, their body weight had no differences with that of larvae developed in natural condition. Extra honey and water besides royal jelly must be added into the diets to promote the growth of larvae. |
