摘要: Honey bees are important pollinators of agricultural crops. Since 2006, US beekeepers have experienced high annual honey bee colony losses, which may be attributed to multiple abiotic and biotic factors, including pathogens. However, the relative importance these factors has not been fully elucidated. To identify most prevalent pathogens investigate relationship between strength health, we assessed pathogen occurrence, prevalence, abundance in Western colonies involved almond pollination. The were Black queen cell virus (BQCV), Lake Sinai 2 (LSV2), Sacbrood (SBV), Nosema ceranae, trypanosomatids. Our results indicated that prevalence associated with both sampling date beekeeping operation, was highest samples obtained immediately after pollination, weak had a greater mean than strong colonies.
