  • Title: Honeybee viruses in Uruguay.
    Author: Antúnez K, D'Alessandro B, Corbella E, Ramallo G, Zunino P.
    Journal: J Invertebr Pathol; 2006 Sep; 93(1):67-70. PubMed ID: 16843485.
    Abstract:
    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 be one of its possible causes. In this work, we detected Chronic bee paralysis virus, Acute bee paralysis virus, Black queen cell virus, Sacbrood virus and Deformed wing virus in samples of Uruguayan honeybees with or without Varroa destructor and Nosema apis. The detection of viruses in different provinces, simultaneous co-infection of colonies by several viruses and the fact that 96% of the samples were infected with one or more virus, indicates they are widely spread in the region.
