There seems to be a preoccupation with its infectivity or transmission rate yet very rarely is its virulence reported on. The fact that in the early stages there was limited medical intervention (and no vaccine) that could be used, and patients were largely depending on their own innate immunity, is similar to what happens with honey bees where no intervention (treatment) is applied in the case of an exotic parasite such as the Varroa mite. It is therefore interesting to compare the development of this infectious disease in humans with infections or infestations in honey bees. Also, the exotic nature of COVID-19, and each of its variants, is seldom alluded to even though this can give a useful insight as to how it would be expected to develop, and in particular the expected reduction in its virulence over time.","PeriodicalId":8783,"journal":{"name":"Bee World","volume":"23 1","pages":"125 - 126"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89588472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Especially, worker bees produce highly diverse and economically valuable products such as honey, pollen, propolis, royal jelly, bee venom, and beeswax (Kafantaris et al., 2021). However, honey bee pests and diseases constitute one of the most prominent factors affecting and restricting the development and progress of beekeeping activities (Antunez et al., 2006; Doğaroğlu, 1999). Among the honey bee pathogens, viruses rank first in terms of threatening the health of honey bees (Tantillo et al., 2015). The vast majority of viruses found in honey bees are positive-stranded RNA viruses (de Miranda et al., 2013). Viruses can be transmitted to different stages of honey bees such as eggs, larvae, pupae, and adults. The transmission of honey bee viruses occurs in two ways, horizontal and vertical. The most common causes of contamination in honey bees are caused by food, contact, and vectors (Nosema and Varroa) (Fujiyuki et al., 2006; Shah et al., 2009).","PeriodicalId":8783,"journal":{"name":"Bee World","volume":"6 1","pages":"99 - 102"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88932644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, great potential of beekeeping has been recognized as it is not only the source of honey but also other important bee products. These include bee wax, bee venom and bee pollen (Tutuba & Vanhaverbeke, 2018). Beekeeping has been greatly acknowledged to have functions such as improving environment and as an alternative source of improving people’s livelihood (John, 2014). Beekeeping has gradually evolved from traditional to commercial practice. Thus, commercialized beekeeping is viewed to be an economic occupation involving application of new innovation and improved technologies in management of honey bee colonies, apiary management, forage, production and product management (Tutuba & Vanhaverbeke, 2018). Beekeeping is more than honey hunting; rather it is the modern art and science of managing honey bees for receiving their commercial potential (Abebe, 2007; Sharma & Das, 2018; Tutuba & Vanhaverbeke, 2018). It is still claimed that the sector has not received enough attention in many tropical developing countries (Adgaba et al., 2014; Bekuma, 2018). Tropical developing countries have great potential for beekeeping because of having many bee colonies. In addition, the tropical areas are endowed with massive forests, which produce forage for honey bees to produce good quality and large quantity of honey. However, both good quality and quantity of honey is affected by the level of technology such as innovation in apiary setting, proper management of beehives and production process (Bett, 2017).","PeriodicalId":8783,"journal":{"name":"Bee World","volume":"10 6 1","pages":"56 - 60"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83629070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
