TL;DR: A four-year study involving more than 1200 bee colonies from about 120 apiaries which were monitored for the entire study period can demonstrate for several factors that they are significantly related to the observed winter losses of the monitored honey bee colonies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deformed wing virus.
TL;DR: The historical and recent data on DWV and its relatives are summarized, covering the genetics, pathobiology, and transmission of this important viral honeybee pathogen, and these within the wider theoretical concepts relating to the genetic variability and population structure of RNA viruses, the evolution of virulence and the development of disease symptoms are discussed.
