>One was untreated; one was infected with Nosema cerana by moistening them
with the juice from squashed bees that were known to have Nc; one was
treated with the juice from squashed bees not having Nc. The bees were
released a short distance from home. 11% of the untreated and of the
uninfected groups failed to make it back; 34% of those dosed with Nc failed
to get home.
Thanks Chris, do you remember how much time he allowed between inoculation
and the return test?
