Hi Everyone, Some time ago I put out a general request for the supply of Nosema apis spores. Several people responded and I thank them very much. However, I would like to obtain spores from several geographically isolated regions of the Northern Hemisphere and would very much appreciate it if anyone could help in this regard. I am almost at the point where I can start my genomic survey for genetic markers of isolates. Subsequently isolates from distant locations may aid in this endeavour. Thank you in advance to those who choose to be of assistance. Robert Rice CSIRO Division of Entomology Black Mountain, Canberra, Australia. E-mail [log in to unmask]
