Abstract

SummaryCombs from honeybee colonies with European foul brood were exposed to gamma irradiation, up to 0?8 Mrad, but they still contained many cells of Streptococcus pluton and of Bacillus alvei. These cells were able to multiply in vitro and to cause European foul brood when placed in healthy colonies.
