Abstract
We took the nationwide survey of three main honeybee diseases, European foulbrood (EFB; Melissococcus pluton), chalk brood (CB; Ascosphera apis), and nosema (Nosema spp.) in 2001 and 2002 from South Korea. The number of infected apiaries with EFB and CB examined from 21 apiaries were 9 and 13, respectively. The average percentages of infectedcolonies in apiaries where EFB and CB occurred were 7.4% and 12.8%. (omitted)
