Honey bee age-dependent resistance against American foulbrood [PDF]
American foulbrood is a fatal disease of honeybee larvae. Larvae become infected by swal- lowing spores of P. larvae larvae that contaminate their food. Adult bees who transfer the spores and have close contact with larvae never become infected. Resistance to this bacterium was investi- gated in various larval stages and in adults of different ages ...
