Las abejas en Kenia están infectadas de parásitos al igual que sus 'primas' de EE.UU. pero, a diferencia de ellas, siguen sanas. ¿Qué lecciones podrían sacar los apicultores norteamericanos?
In 2004, Israeli acute paralysis virus (IAPV), was discovered in Israel and at one time it was considered the cause of CCD. It was named after the place it was first identified; its place of origin is unknown. In September 2007, results of a large-scale statistical RNA sequencing study of afflicted and unafflicted colonies were reported. RNA from all organisms in a colony was sequenced and compared with sequence databases to detect the presence of pathogens. All colonies were found to be infected with numerous pathogens, but only the IAPV virus showed a significant association with CCD: the virus was found in 25 of the 30 tested CCD colonies, and only in one of the 21 tested non-CCD colonies.[98][102]
Recent research in 2009 has found that an indicator for an impaired protein production is common among all bees affected by CCD, a pattern consistent with IAPV infection. It is conjectured that Dicistroviridae, like the IAPV, cause degradation of the ribosomes, which are responsible for protein production of cells, and that this reduced ribosomal function weakens the bees, making them more vulnerable to factors that might not otherwise be lethal.[103][104]
O sea, que se llama israelí solo porque se descubrió en ese país.
No hay más que leer los comentarios de la noticia.
A saber que "virus israelí" es ese al que se refiere.
Mi apuesta es la bacteria bacillus thurigiensis israelis

#4 y sigo sin saber que "virus israelí de parálisis aguda" es ese...
Por un momento he pensado en un virus informático.
#1 Pues yo he pensado: "los israelíes como son moscas cojoneras no quieren a las abejas" (Es broma ¿eh?)
