Honey bee virus infections in Croatian apiaries

In certain cases, e. g. when environmental and beekeeping factors result in stress, honeybee viruses may cause clinical symptoms or even lethal disease in honeybee colonies. Extensive trafic of bees, trade, exchange of bee queens and introduction of new colonies into apiaries may facilitate the spread of viruses. This work describes the first molecular evidence for viruses in Croatian honeybee samples.
