A Comparison of the Antibacterial Efficacy of Carbohydrate Lipid-like (Thio)Ether, Sulfone, and Ester Derivatives against Paenibacillus larvae. [PDF]
Paenibacillus larvae is the causative agent of American foulbrood (AFB), the most serious bacterial disease affecting developing honeybee larvae and pupas. In this study, a library of 24 (thio)glycosides, glycosyl sulfones, 6-O-esters, and ethers derived

Short Communication: Efficacy of Two Commercial Disinfectants on Paenibacillus larvae Spores [PDF]
Paenibacillus larvae is a spore-forming bacterium causing American foulbrood (AFB) in honey bee larvae. The remains of a diseased larva contains billions of extremely resilient P. larvae spores viable for decades.

Phospholipase A2 activity is required for immune defense of European (Apis mellifera) and Asian (Apis cerana) honeybees against American foulbrood pathogen, Paenibacillus larvae. [PDF]
Honeybees require a functioning immune system to defend against microbial pathogens. The American foulbrood pathogen, Paenibacillus larvae, is lethal to honeybees and one of the main causes of colony collapse. This study investigated the immune responses
