Description

The biology and physiology of the western honey bee (Apis mellifera) in relation to its parasitic and viral diseases. Testing natural antiviral compounds for their inhibitory effects on honey bee viruses. The impact of nutrition and stress factors on the honey bee health. Thermoregulation, metabolism and immune system as key parameters affecting the resilience and survival of honey bee colonies.
