Abstract: | Six bee viruses, which occur in Apis mellifera, were monitored in the Czech Republic between 2006 and 2009. Samples of larvae and pupae collected from hives where American
foulbrood was detected were screened for bee viruses and in the 125 samples of larvae, there was no confirmed case of a larva
infected with both American foulbrood and a bee virus. Of 145 samples infected with the protozoan Nosema apis, there were 23 cases of coinfections with the BQCV virus, 18 with the DWV virus and 11 with the ABPV virus. All coinfections
with three or four viruses were also statistically significant apart from the one between ABPV with CBPV and DWV. The PCA
ordination diagram indicates that BQCV occurs mainly with Nosema apis and DWV mainly with ABPV. |
