Viruses
Pirk and colleagues reviewed, that in the year 2015, at least 23 "honey bee viruses" were known. [1]. Mentionable viruses that were reported in Asia and/or Africa are: Black Queen Cell Virus (BQCV), Sacbrood Virus (SBV), Israeli Acute Paralysis Virus (IAPV), Deformed Wing Virus (DWV), Varroa destructor Virus 1 (VDV-1), Acute/Chronic Bee Paralysis virus (ABPV and CBPV). [2] [1] Despite there may be similar symptoms such as wing deformation in DWV and VDV-1, the pathogenesis of mentioned viruses differ from each other. The symptoms range from loss of hair to even paralysis. [3] [1]
