Abstract
In the European part of Russia, a study was conducted on the presence of six pathogenic viruses in bee families: SAC brood virus, black Queen virus, wing deformity virus, Kashmir virus, Israeli acute paralysis virus, and acute paralysis virus. The prevalence of pathogenic viruses was studied in apiaries using the molecular genetic method OT-PCR. The tick load on bee families was determined. The heterogeneous distribution of different types of viruses in apiaries was established. With a low tick load, there was a high viral load on bee families in the southern and Central regions of the European part of Russia, and a low one in the Northern region.
