> There are several European honeybee populations that have never been infested by mites, such as on the Island of Ouessant in France, large parts of northern Sweden and the Finnish island Aland in the Baltic Sea. Such populations are essential for understanding the epidemiological and evolutionary mechanisms underlying the lethal interactions between Varroa and viral pathogens. There are similar populations elsewhere (Australian Varroa-free populations; African and South American Varroa-tolerant populations) for comparison with European populations.
