Evolutionarily diverse origins of deformed wing viruses in western honey bees
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 120(26).
author keywords: varroa; single-stranded RNA viruses; apis; phylogeography
TL;DR:
It is shown that two closely related honey bee deformed wing virus strains, transmitted by ectoparasitic varroa mites, show different patterns of spread, illustrating the dynamic nature of viral adaptation and competition, as well as the risks posed by globalization.

Method Development for a Short-Term 7-Day Toxicity Test with Unionid Mussels
ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND CHEMISTRY, 40(12), 3392–3409.
author keywords: Whole effluent toxicity; Species sensitivity; Test methods; Interlaboratory variability; Sodium chloride
MeSH headings : Animals; Bivalvia; Fresh Water; Toxicity Tests; Unionidae; Water Pollutants, Chemical / toxicity
TL;DR:
The mussel test method was refined by determining the best feeding rate of a commercial algal mixture for 3 age groups (1, 2, and 3-wk old) of L. siliquoidea in a 7-d feeding experiment, and then used the derived optimal feeding rates to assess the sensitivity of the 3 ages of juveniles in a7-d reference toxicant (NaCl) test.
