Hi All,

I was wondering about AFB resistance - what is the mechanism of that
resistance - how does it manifest?

If a hive has a very few cells that show signs of AFB, is it possible for
it to go into remission and overcome the disease? If so, might the disease
manifest again when the hive encounters stress such as a dearth period or a
mite treatment?

How likely is it that a hive near one with AFB will also become diseased
through drift rather than robbing out a dead/dying hive?
