Average DWV titres in adult bees.
The average DWV titres with standard error bars in adult bees in Apistan treated colonies (light bars) and untreated control colonies (dark bars) are presented on the right y-axis. The symptomatic bee with deformed wings and the asymptomatic bee represent the difference in titre amounts between clinical and sub-clinical DWV on the right y-axis. The average mite infestation rates with standard error bars in treated colonies (light red lines) and untreated colonies (dark red lines) are presented on the left y-axis. The sampling points are presented progressively in weeks (and months) in relation to when the Apistan treatment was administered.
