Genetic variation of Ascosphaera apis and colony attributes do not explain chalkbrood disease outbreaks in Australian honey bees.

Journal of invertebrate pathology - 1 Mar 2021

Abstract excerpt

Chalkbrood infection caused by the fungus Ascosphaera apis currently has a significant impact on Australia's apicultural industry. We investigated the genetic variation of A. apis and colony and apiary level conditions to determine if an emerging, more virulent strain or specific conditions were responsible for the prevalence of the disease. We identified six genetically distinct strains of A. apis, four have...
