Pure N. ceranae and co-infection were detected in apiaries from all regions. In contrast, pure N. apis infection was exclusively observed in the subtropical study region. The predominant detection of N. apis in a subtropical region joining a southern temperate region where mainly co-infected apiaries were identified is in contrast to previous reports UR - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aF8wUnWJxVZ7hqc2pG_JMN53yxPKxfP0/view?usp=drivesdk ER -
