Reviews
“Professor Sandra Fuselli and co-workers have written an excellent paper on control and prevention of American Foulbrood (AFB). This paper is a “must read” for anyone working in the field of honeybees diseases, especially for those working with AFB. In this comprehensive manuscript, Professor Sandra Fuselli and co-workers have brought a whole lot of information about the prevention and control measurements to fight AFB, spanning from traditional control methods to the newest alternative control methods. This is an essential work for undergraduates, academics and professionals in the field of bee diseases.” – Professor Juan M. Marioli, Universidad Nacional de Río Cuarto, Argentina
“American foulbrood has been and continues to be one of the major problems in the health of honey bees. The merit of this monograph is that it brings together the most up-to‐date knowledge and scientific advances in the field; it contains important information and gives us a generalized view of the current problems with regard to disease control. This monograph thus makes an extremely interesting addition to the literature since it not only covers the most relevant information but it does it in a global context.” – Jessica Martínez, PhD, Principal Investigator, Honey Bees Research Laboratory, Center of Regenerative Medicine, Clínica Alemana–‐Universidad del Desarrollo
