• A historical review of managed honey bee populations in Europe and the United States and the factors that may affect them. (2010, background): “The parasitic mite, V. destructor (Anderson and Trueman, 2000; formerly known as Varroa jacobsoni), is the most detrimental honey bee parasite in the world today (Rosenkranz et al., 2010).”
• The future of pollinators for Australian agriculture (2002, neutral): “mellifera (Oldroyd 1999; Anderson and Trueman 2000).”
• Biotic and Abiotic Factors Associated with Colonies Mortalities of Managed Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) (2019, background): “The parasitic mite Varroa destructor was introduced into Europe (possible in the 1950s) [39], and North America (first detected in 1987s), [40], making it a nearly ubiquitous honey bee pest [41].”
• Global invasions of the western honeybee (Apis mellifera) and the consequences for biodiversity (2005, background): “Nomenclature: Linnaeus, 1758; Erichson, 1842; Mayr, 1868; Buren, 1972; Ruttner, 1988; Anderson & Trueman, 2000; Michener, 2000; Thorp & Shepherd, 2005.”
• Standard methods for varroa research (2013, methodology): “…these mites indeed reproduce on the bee species they have been collected from, as mites sometimes drift to and from colonies of foreign species on which they are unable to reproduce (Anderson and Trueman, 2000; Koeniger et al., 2002), which might confuse the host-specificity attributed to them.”
• Varroa destructor: research avenues towards sustainable control (2012, background): “The successfully invading V. destructor belong to just two genetic lineages, known as the Korean and Japanese strains (Anderson and Trueman, 2000).”
• Molecular markers for the phylogenetics of mites and ticks (2002, methodology): “Klompen (2000) found it necessary to use 2-5 individuals in each extraction whereas Anderson & Trueman (2000) used only leg tissue dissected from individual mites.”
• Swarming in honey bees (Apis mellifera) and Varroa destructor population development in Sweden. (2003, background): “The parasitic mite Varroa destructor is a relatively new parasite of European honey bees (Anderson and Trueman, 2000).”
• Detection of acute bee paralysis virus by RT-PCR in honey bee and Varroa destructor field samples: rapid screening of representative Hungarian apiaries (2002, background): “1904 but the type infesting Apis melliferaL. was recently taxonomically changed to V. destructor (Anderson, 2000; Anderson and Trueman, 2000).”
• The worldwide health status of honey bees (2005, background): “destructor.(6) When reviewed in detail, it is unclear how erroneous diagnosis of bee pests and diseases would affect maps of their current distribution, but this certainly highlights the need for universally accepted diagnostic tools (a goal of the OIE).”

• Biology and control of Varroa destructor. (2010, background): “The only Varroa haplotypes on A. mellifera were the Korean and Japan haplotypes with the latter considered to be less virulent due to reduced reproductive capacity (Anderson, 2000; Anderson and Trueman, 2000; Medina and Martin, 1999; Vandame et al., 2000).”
• Transmission of Kashmir bee virus by the ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor (2004, background): “Bowen-Walker et al. (1999) provided strong circumstantial evidence that V. jacobsoni (= destructor Anderson and Trueman, 2000) was an effective vector of DWV in the bee colonies.”
