Acute bee paralysis virus (ABPV), Kashmir bee virus (KBV) and Israeli acute paralysis virus
(IAPV) are part of a complex of closely related viruses from the Family Dicistroviridae. These …

Honey bee virus research is an enormously broad area, ranging from subcellular molecular
biology through physiology and behaviour, to individual and colony-level symptoms …

Deformed wing virus (DWV) of honeybees (Apis mellifera) is closely associated with
characteristic wing deformities, abdominal bloating, paralysis, and rapid mortality of …

Apiculturists have recently been confronted with drastic and inexplicable winter losses of
colonies, and virus infections may be involved. Here, we surveyed 337 Swiss honey bee …

Chronic bee paralysis which was called Paralysis is a rather unusual disease caused by a
rather unusual virus. In this review, we explore current knowledge of the disease and its …

The health and vigour of honeybee colonies are threatened by numerous parasites (such as
Varroa destructor and Nosema spp.) and pathogens, including viruses, bacteria, protozoa …

Since 1963, when chronic bee paralysis (CBPV) and acute bee paralysis virus (ABPV) were
first isolated, a total of eighteen viruses have been identified and characterised from the …

Mortality of honeybees is a serious problem that beekeepers have to face periodically in
Uruguay and worldwide. The presence of RNA viruses, in addition to other pathogens may …

The ectoparasite Varroa destructor is the greatest threat to managed honey bee (Apis
mellifera) colonies globally. Despite significant efforts, novel treatments to control the mite …

This work describes the first molecular-genetic evidence for viruses in Brazilian honey bee
samples. Three different bee viruses, Acute bee paralysis virus (ABPV), Black queen cell …
