Bacterial Agents for Biocontrol of American Foulbrood (AFB) of Larvae Honey Bee

Microbiology Research
Bee colonies are constantly threatened by a bacterial larvae disease called American foulbrood, caused by the Gram-positive bacterium Paenibacillus larvae. This is a highly specialized pathogen with only one established host, the honey bee larvae.

IPM Strategy to Control EFB in Apis mellifera: Oxytetracycline Treatment Combined with Partial Shook Swarm and Queen Caging

Veterinary Sciences
We tested an integrated pest management (IPM) strategy to control European foulbrood (EFB) in honey bees. Colonies affected by EFB were assigned to two homogenous groups: an oxytetracycline-treated group (1.5 g OTC/hive) that underwent partial shook ...

Infection rate based on quantitative real-time PCR of Melissococcus plutonius, the causal agent of European foulbrood, in honeybee colonies before and after apiary sanitation

, 2008
Since 1999, the incidence of European foulbrood (EFB) in Switzerland has been rising constantly. To understand the reason for this increase, an epidemiological study of the efficacy of sanitation measures was carried out.

The epizootiology of european foulbrood of the larval honey bee, Apis mellifera Linnaeus

, 1960
Larvae, artificially infected when 0 to 1 day old with Streptococcus pluton (White) and placed in colonies, were usually ejected by adult bees. Ejection was delayed from colonies deprived either of unsealed brood or their queen, or which were reinforced ...

Microbial investigation on honey bee larvae showing atypical symptoms of European foulbrood

, 2015
Culture-dependent and culture-independent techniques were applied to investigate the bacterial communities occurring in 5-6 days-old honey bee larvae (Apis mellifera L.), with evident symptoms of disease and healthy-looking ones. Samples were collected
