Biology, distribution and prevention of microsporidia genus nosema parasiting on honey bees

Year: 2014

Pages: 145-154

Number: Volume 6, issue 3

Type: scientific article

Summary:

In population of bees A. mellifera and A. cerana widely distributed classic nosemosis of type A and Asian nosemosis of type C - very dangerous microsporidiosis leading to loss of productivity of bee colonies and even their death. Without beekeeper and their treatment nosemosis does not disappear in the hive, and ultimately leads to the weakening and destruction of bee colonies. Both species of Nosema have uneven distribution in the area of the honeybee: different regions had differences in species composition and quantitative content of microsporidies. In distributing nosema also important taxonomic belonging of honeybees - different honey bees subspecies have different resistance to the disease: bee subspecies Apis mellifera mellifera, in contrast to other bee subspecies least susceptible to infection by nosemosis. Due to fact that species N. ceranae, compared with N.apis, characterized by considerable resistance to antibiotics and fungicides, high levels of virulence and reproductive rate, unpredictable timing nosemosis manifestation and wide representation in the tissues and organs of honeybee, it is necessary to develop individual for each species modified methods of prevention and treatment.

Keywords:
