Some honey bee populations are resistant to the mite, but most of the commercially used stocks are not and rely on chemical treatment. In this article, we describe known varroa-resistant populations and the mechanisms which have been identified as responsible for survival of colonies without beekeeper intervention to control the mite. We review traits that have potential in breeding programs, discuss the role played by V. destructor as a vector for virus infections, and the changes in mite and virus virulence which could play a role in colony resistance.

In reality, the relationship between the built environment and sustainability has flourished during the past four years. From landlords attempting to make their buildings as energy efficient as possible, to developers sourcing the most sustainable construction materials and fund managers retrofitting billions of dollars worth of buildings to attract an increasingly environ- mentally conscious investor base, sustainability is now an impor- tant concept in the property industry. And all this in spite of a down- turn that has crippled confidence and activity levels on both sides of the Atlantic.

  • International Property Handbook: 2017 Trends and a Look Back at 2016 April 2017 Introduction
    International Property Handbook: 2017 trends and a look back at 2016 April 2017 Introduction Dear Colleague, The International Property Handbook from Deloitte’s Global Real Estate & Construction group tracks the flows of real estate capital and provides an overview of investment trends and key deals in the most active global real estate investment markets. This handbook reflects back on 2016 analyzing economic data and real estate investment in 21 countries around the world to provide insights on potential trends in 2017. With a strong economic outlook, we saw increases in cross-border investment, yet the overall global transaction volume was around the same as it was in 2015. Private and unlisted funds were the most active investors followed by institutional funds, indicating the large amount of private capital available to be deployed to real estate investment. Given many of the investors still have significant amounts of capital to deploy, and the fundraising market for real estate investment remains strong, we believe that these trends indicate strong growth in the industry moving forward. Large institutional investors and sovereign wealth funds have been initiating or increasing capital allocations to global real estate investments, and we believe that will help sustain real estate investment activity into 2017 and beyond. Our analysis also indicates that while many of the largest real estate investment markets have fully (or nearly fully) recovered from the global financial crisis, other markets are in earlier stages of recovery, indicating potential opportunities for 2017 and beyond. We hope you find this report interesting. We would be delighted to discuss the details of this research with you and how it may impact your business.
