Differential Viral Distribution Patterns in Reproductive Tissues of Apis mellifera and Apis cerana Drones

Abstract: Honeybee drones are male bees that mate with virgin queens during the mating flight, consequently transferring their genes to offspring. Therefore, the health of drones affects the overall fitness of the offspring and ultimately the survivability of the colony. Honeybee viruses are considered to be a major threat to the health of honeybees. In the present study, we demonstrated the pattern of common honeybee viruses in various tissues of drones in the western honeybee, Apis mellifera, and the eastern honeybee,… Show more

“…The reciprocal transmission of Varroa destructor and N. ceranae between A. cerana and A. mellifera has also been found to decrease honey quality and productivity [ 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 ]. Chinese sacbrood virus (CSBV) is a serious threat to A. cerana , and it has been detected in Chinese populations of A. mellifera [ 24 ]. These factors have caused a great decline in A. cerana populations over the past few years [ 25 ].…”

“…SBV transmission in honey bee colonies can occur through either vertical or horizontal transmission routes [ 10 , 27 ]. It was also found to be transmitted venereally in honey bees, where the virus was passed on to queens via drone sperm during mating or artificial insemination [ 28 , 29 ]. BQCV and SBV may commonly co-occur in honey bees [ 20 ].…”

“…Тобто і «Апінормін» і нанорозмірний діоксид церію (нано-СеО 2 ) не мали противірусного пролонгованого ефекту, навіть за умови підкріплення дії препаратів тривалим (1,5-2,5 місяці) зимовим безрозплідним періодом. Це дозволяє припустити, що в даному експерименті матки були носіями інфекції, які трансоваріально її передавали наступним поколінням, що узгоджується з даними літератури про статевий шлях передачі збудника мішечкуватого розплоду (Prodelalova et al, 2019;Phokasem et al, 2021). Отже, зимового безрозплідного періоду не було досить для оздоровлення бджолиних сімей за мішечкуватого розплоду.…”
