Honey Bee Suppresses the Parasitic Mite Vitellogenin by Antimicrobial Peptide

The negative effects of honey bee parasitic mites and deformed wing virus (DWV) on honey bee and colony health have been well characterized. However, the relationship between DWV and mites, particularly viral replication inside the mites, remains unclear. Furthermore, the physiological outcomes of h...
