“…Another new pathogen of fairly high prevalence and incidence (copy number) in our study was the trypanosome, L. passim. This pathogen was described in the western honey bee in the US in 2015 [70], and it has since been found to be detrimental to colony health [71]. With this rich diversity of pathogens and parasites, why was Varroa mite found to be the only significant causal factor in colony health?…”

“…Reference trypanosomatid strains of C. mellificae (ATCC 30254) and L. passim (ATCC PRA403) were used for the inoculums. Cells were cultured in Brain Heart Infusion Broth (BHI: Sigma) supplemented with 10% of Heat Inactivated Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS: Gibco) and 1% of Penicillin/Streptomycin (17-602E, Lonza), as described previously [32,33]. Cultures were maintained at 27 ºC in 25 cm 2 flasks (Corning), with an initial concentration of 10 5 cells/mL.…”

“…Crithidia mellificae was initially discovered during the investigation of colony losses in Australia that could not be explained by any then-recognized infectious disease (Langridge, 1966;Langridge and McGhee, 1967). This species can infect sweat, bumble, and mason bees (Halictus, Bombus, and Osmia) genera as well as honey bees (Strobl et al, 2019;Ngor et al, 2020), with elevated mortality in honey bees and Osmia cornuta (Strobl et al, 2019;Gómez-Moracho et al, 2020). Lotmaria passim was not distinguished from C. mellificae until 2014, but is now considered the dominant parasite of honey bees worldwide (Schwarz et al, 2015;Arismendi et al, 2016;Stevanovic et al, 2016;Xu et al, 2018;Williams et al, 2019).…”
