Abstract
Colonies of honeybees that were opened and manipulated at regular intervals showed more infection with Nosema apis than others that were not opened. Thus queen-rearing colonies, which must be manipulated frequently, are likely to be more highly infected than colonies worked normally for honey production.Keywords
