Virulence Associated Morphology of Different Strains of Melissococcus plutonius, a Brood Pathogen of Honey Bees. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepThis study explores the diversity in cell morphology and growth behaviours of three Melissococcus plutonius strains, the causative agent of European foulbrood, employing electron microscopy and expression analysis of glycan‐binding protein candidate genes. Our results illustrate the mechanism of cell separation and the formation of individual cocci and

Wake Up and Smell the Infected Bees: Volatile Cues of <i>Vairimorpha</i> Infection in Honey Bees. [PDF]
Ecol EvolInfection can modify host volatile emissions, yet effects in adult honey bees remain unexplored. Using dynamic headspace sampling and GC × GC–MS, we show that Vairimorpha spp. infection significantly alters the volatile profile of adult worker honey bees over a 14‐day time series, producing stage‐specific shifts in multivariate odour structure.

Survey and molecular detection of Melissococcus plutonius, the causative agent of European Foulbrood in honeybees in Saudi Arabia. [PDF]
Saudi J Biol Sci, 2017 A large-scale field survey was conducted to screen major Saudi Arabian beekeeping locations for infection by Melissococcus plutonius. M. plutonius is one of the major bacterial pathogens of honeybee broods and is the causative agent of European Foulbrood
