Resumen
La salud de Apis mellifera es un tema importante debido al rol ecológico y económico que cum- plen las abejas. Paenibacillus larvae, un bacilo formador de esporas, es el principal patógeno bacteriano de las larvas de abejas melíferas y es el agente causal de Loque Americana. Esta enfermedad provoca pérdidas económicas considerables y su control es un desafío para los apicultores de todo el mundo. Por lo tanto, es necesario encontrar tratamientos efectivos y, en este sentido, se están estudiando productos naturales derivados de plantas medicinales. En este trabajo se determinó la concentración inhibitoria mínima (CIM) y la concentración bactericida mínima (CBM) del extracto hexánico de Achyrocline satureioides, obteniendo valores de 0,30 μg/ml y 1,17 μg/ml, respectivamente. Se determinaron los parámetros de crecimiento de P. larvae 9 (ERIC I) y luego se evaluó el efecto de diferentes concentraciones del extracto hexánico (sub-in- hibitoria, inhibitoria, sub-bactericida y bactericida) sobre el crecimiento bacteriano. El extracto hexánico mostró un buen efecto inhibitorio, independientemente de las concentraciones evaluadas. El crecimiento bacteriano fue afectado significativamente a concentraciones sub-bactericidas y bactericidas. Nuestros re- sultados demostraron la efectividad del extracto hexánico de A. satureioides sobre P. larvae, constituyendo una alternativa prometedora para el control de Loque Americana.
The health of Apis mellifera hives is an important issue due to the ecological and economic role that bees play. Paenibacillus larvae, a spore-forming bacillus, is the main bacterial pathogen of bees larvae and the causative agent of American foulbrood. This disease causes considerable economic losses and its control is a challenge for beekeepers around the world. Therefore, there is a need to find effective treatments and natural products derived from medicinal plants are being studied. In the present work, the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and the Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) of the hexanic extract of Achyrocline satureioides were determined, obtaining values of 0.30 μg/ml and 1.17 μg/ml, respectively. The growth parameters of P. larvae 9 (ERIC I) were determined, and then the effect of different concentrations of the hexanic extract (sub-inhibitory, inhibitory, sub-bactericidal and bactericidal) on the bacterial growth was evaluated. The hexanic extract showed a good inhibitory effect regardless of the concentrations tested. Bacterial growth was significantly affected at sub-bactericidal and bactericidal concentrations. Our results demonstrated the effectiveness of the hexanic extract of A. satureioides on P. larvae growth, constituting a promising alternative for American foulbrood control.
