Nosema ceranae infections in honey bees (Apis mellifera) pose a severe threat to colony health. Beekeepers have used dicyclohexylammonium fumagillin to control Nosema apis, although it may be ineffective against N. ceranae. We investigated the ability of

Nosemosis in Honeybees: A Review Guide on Biology and Diagnostic Methods
Nosema apis and Nosema ceranae are dangerous parasites of the honey bee (Apis mellifera). N. ceranae is more pathogenic and, nowadays, more widespread than N. apis. There are also cases of mixed infections or infections of only N. apis. Both N.

Kontroversen ��ber Nosema ceranae (Mikrosporidien)
Honigbienen sind zwar die bekanntesten Bienen, aber sie stellen nur einen Bruchteil der weltweit existierenden Bienenspezies dar. Der berwiegende Teil der Bienen wird nicht vom Menschen gehalten, sondern gilt als wildlebend. F r diese Wildbienen sind, aktuellen Berichten zu Folge, deutliche R ckg nge in Anzahl und Vielfalt zu beobachten.

First Identification of Nosema Ceranae (Microsporidia) Infecting Apis Mellifera in Venezuela
Nosema ceranae is a pathogen of Apis mellifera, which seems to have jumped from its original host Asiatic honey bee Apis ceranae. Nosemosis which affects the honey bee Apis mellifera is caused by two parasitic fungi described as etiologic agents of the ...

Chronic parasitization by Nosema microsporidia causes global expression changes in core nutritional, metabolic and behavioral pathways in honey bee workers (Apis mellifera) [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Chronic infections can profoundly affect the physiology, behavior, fitness and longevity of individuals, and may alter the organization and demography of social groups.

Artificial Diets Modulate Infection Rates by Nosema ceranae in Bumblebees [PDF]
Parasites alter the physiology and behaviour of their hosts. In domestic honey bees, the microsporidia Nosema ceranae induces energetic stress that impairs the behaviour of foragers, potentially leading to colony collapse. Whether this parasite similarly affects wild pollinators is little understood because of the low success rates of experimental ...
