Plant virus detection and diversity in a mixed tree fruit orchard determined through metagenomic-based analysis of honeybee (Apis mellifera) collected samples
… Over time, fruit trees can accumulate various viruses, leading to complex mixed infections. Furthermore, emerging viruses can create epidemics causing significant losses. Effective monitoring approaches can reduce these impacts through management practices. Pollination is an essential aspect of …
