Американският гнилец познат и все още непознат
Йордан Христов
Abstract: Американският гнилец е едно от най-разпространените и смъртоносни заболявания по пчелните семейства. Въпреки че заболяването е познато от векове, все още някои аспекти от него не са изяснени напълно. В настоящата обзорна статия са систематизирани и обобщени знанията относно етиологията, патогенезата, клиничните признаци, профилактиката и контрола на американския гнилец. Също така е обърнато внимание на механизмите на резистентност на пчелите към заболяването. Посочени са и новите научни открития променящи нашето разбиране за това опасно заболяване.
Keywords: Американски гнилец; Paenibacillus larvae; патогенеза; профилактика
