Development of a Honey Bee RNA Virus Vector Based on the Genome of a Deformed Wing Virus

We developed a honey bee RNA-virus vector based on the genome of a picorna-like Deformed wing virus (DWV), the main viral pathogen of the honey bee (<i>Apis mellifera</i>). To test the potential of DWV to be utilized as a vector, the 717 nt sequence coding for the enhanced green fluoresc...
