摘要: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and distribution of Nosema spp. in Apis mellifera using historical worker bee samples collected between 2005 and 2010 in China. Out of 292 samples initially analysed by microscopy, 69 were Nosema spore positive. The prevalence of Nosema infections in Southern China (38.9%) was higher than in Central and Northern China (21.9 and 16.7%, respectively). Positive samples were subjected to multiplex PCR amplifications with primers corresponding to 16S rRNA specific sequences of Nosema ceranae and Nosema apis. N. apis was detected in only one sample collected in 2008 in Shandong province, whereas N. ceranae was detected in 68 samples, which indicates that N. ceranae is the most common Nosema species infecting A. mellifera in China since at least 2005.
