Israeli acute paralysis virus is the virus that was believed to be a cause of the destruction of hundreds of thousands of honey bee colonies in North American and European countries in 2007. This virus is one of the viral diseases occurred in bees.
EXPLANATION:
There are five main types of viral diseases occurred in bees and its virus:
• Cripaviridae
• Chronic bee paralysis virus
• Syndrome 1: abnormal quivering of the body and wings occurs.
• Syndrome 2: affected bees can fly, but are nearly hairless.
• Dicistroviridae
• Acute bee paralysis virus has a part in the sudden collapse of the colony's honey bee contaminated with the parasitic mite Varroa destructor.
• Israeli acute paralysis virus has an indicator related to colony collapse disorder.
• Kashmir bee virus is associated with the previous viruses and is presently only positively recognizable by a laboratory test.
• Black queen cell virus makes the queen larva to become black and die.
• Cloudy wing virus is a small, little-studied, icosahedral virus normally found in honey bees, particularly in collapsing colonies infiltrated by Varroa destructor, giving the contingent indication that the mite possibly will act as a vector.
• Sacbrood virus transforms affected larvae to gray and finally black from the pearly white. Death happens when the larvae are standing, just before pupation.
• Iflaviridae
• Deformed wing virus is the causal agent of the wing and other body abnormalities normally seen in the colonies of honeybee that are immensely infected with the parasitic mite Varroa destructor.
• Kakugo virus is an iflavirus contaminating bees; varroa mites may facilitate its prevalence.
• Iridoviridae
• Invertebrate iridescent virus type 6 (IIV-6) makes the colonies collapse.
• Secoviridae
• Tobacco ringspot virus, a plant pathogen, was defined to contaminate honeybees through contaminated pollen, but this uncommon claim was soon disputed and continues to be approved.
• Lake Sinai virus was detected in bees, pollen, and mites. The virus just actively duplicates in mason bees (Osmia cornuta) and honey bees, not in Varroa mites.
