Abstract (German)	We develop novel specific non-GMO treatments against the Varroa mite, a honeybee parasite, by combining molecular genetic tools of the Drosophila model organism with novel CRISPR-Cas13 RNA targeting methods. This technology platform will also be applicable to a wide variety of insect pests.
