Dainat B Grossar D Ecoffey B Haldemann C 2018 The bacteria Melissococcus plutonius and Paenibacillus larvae, causative agents of respectively European and American foulbrood, damage honeybee health worldwide. Here, we present a specific and sensitive qualitative triplex real-time PCR method to detect simultaneously those microbial agents and a honeybee gene, validated through a study involving 7 laboratories through Europe. https://sonar.ch/global/documents/266461 eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1016/j.mimet.2018.01.018 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/pmid/29391178 Journal of microbiological methods. - 2018 Apis mellifera Diagnosis Melissococcus plutonius Multiplex real-time PCR Paenibacillus larvae Americas Animal Diseases Animals Bees DNA, Bacterial Enterococcaceae Europe Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction Paenibacillus larvae Triplex real-time PCR method for the qualitative detection of European and American foulbrood in honeybee. http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
