Randy said> There was recently a thread on sick brood with PMS-like signs, but in
colonies with low varroa counts. I saw one yesterday. The diseased larvae
and pupae do not exhibit signs of EFB, AFB, sacbrood, or chalkbrood, but
looked very similar to those in a colony with Parasitic Mite Syndrome--thus
I suspected a virus.
Do folks think this is an emerging malady that was previously unknown or one that has always existed but misdiagnosed as PMS or idiopathic brood syndrome?
