The U.S. and other countries have seen declines in bee colonies, which play a vital role in agriculture.
"This is an exciting step forward for beekeepers, as we rely on antibiotic treatment that has limited effectiveness and requires lots of time and energy to apply to our hives," said Tauzer Apiaries owner Trevor Tauzer, a board member of the California State Beekeepers Association, in a statement on the vaccine.
"If we can prevent an infection in our hives, we can avoid costly treatments and focus our energy on other important elements of keeping our bees healthy."Dalan said it plans to develop vaccines for "other honeybee diseases and underserved industries, such as shrimp, mealworms, and insects used in agriculture."
Ramesh Sagili, a professor of apiculture at Oregon State University, who wasn't involved in the research behind the Damal vaccine, magazine when the last honeybee vaccine study was published in October that he was keen to see how immunity would hold up in the long term for the bees."Bees are under great threat from the combined effects of climate change, intensive agriculture, pesticides use, biodiversity loss and pollution," per UN Food and Agriculture Organization chiefThe absence of bees would pose a threat to crops that rely on pollination, global food security and human nutrition, Graziano da Silva notes.
