| description | For the living world, in the existing ecosystem, for the reproduction,
production and spread of plant species, bees are one of the most important
parts of nature. In the pollination of certain field and fruit-vegetable
plant species, bees participate with almost 100%. Any factor that
contributes to reducing the presence of bees in nature, directly affects
the fertility of the plant world, and indirectly affects the rest of the
entire living population. Nosemosis is a microorganism that has a great
impact on the health of bees. In the previous period, Nosema sp. is
classified as a single-celled parasite, a protozoan, but today it is
classified as a fungus (Microsporidia). There are about 30 different species
of Nosema in nature. For the bee population, especially with regard to the
European honey bee (Apis millifera), two species of Nosema are very
important, Nosema apis and Nosema ceranae. The correct confirmation of the
type Nosema provides a better understanding of the outcomes and consequences
for the apiary in which the clinical picture of nosemosis has occurred. The
phenotypic diagnostic method, despite the present morphological differences,
does not provide the possibility of reliable confirmation of the Nosema
species. For these reasons, in order to make a differential diagnosis, it is
necessary to determine which type of Nosema is present by molecular methods.
In our work, by molecular method (PCR), we analyzed bees sampled from two
administrative areas. The examination showed that Nosema ceranae was found
in the two examined areas, while the presence of Nosema apis was not
confirmed. These results may indicate that Nosema ceranae is predominant in
the study area and has completely replaced Nosema apis. |
