What factors influence the spread of viruses through wild bee communities?
Vocabulary and sources
Additional research and information about viruses in bee communities
- founded by Galen Cobb (PhD candidate)
- viral diseases and other pathogens are one of the top four threats to bees
- aim: identify prensence and susceptibility of viruses in bee communities
- collect 200 bees from up to 20 species and test each for the presence of four common bee viruses:
*) black queen cell virus
*) deformed wing virus
*) Israeli acute paralysis virus
*) sacbrood virus
- assess prediction of viral infections
within bee communities
Black queen cell virus
Israeli acute paralysis virus
Bee viruses represent 8% of the total bee mortality
