Microsporidia: An Emerging Threat to Bumblebees?

Trends in parasitology - 1 Oct 2017

Brown M J F

Abstract excerpt

Microsporidia may cause emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) in bumblebees. Two drivers - commercial bumblebees and managed honey bees - have been identified as possible sources of pathogen spillover. In addition, declines in bumblebee populations may have led to lower genetic diversity and subsequent higher susceptibility to infection, enabling microsporidia to increase in prevalence. There is strong evidence for...
