Co-incubation of dsRNA reduces proportion of viable spores of <i>Ascosphaera apis</i> , a honey bee fungal pathogen
2019-11-25
Abstract excerpt
There are viral, fungal, bacterial and trypanosomal pathogens that negatively impact the individual and superorganismal health of the western honey bee. One fungal pathogen, Ascosphaera apis , affects larvae and causes the disease chalkbrood. A previous genome analysis of As. apis revealed that its genome encodes for RNA interference genes, similar to other fungi and eukaryotes. Here, we examined whether As. ap...
