TL;DR
A new virus, bee xinmovirus 1, was discovered in honey bees and mining bees in Israel, with a genome sequence closely related to the Xinmoviridae family.
Contribution
The discovery and sequencing of a new virus, bee xinmovirus 1, in bee species from Israel.
Findings
Bee xinmovirus 1 was detected in both honey bees and mining bees in Israel.
The near-complete genome is about 13,130 nucleotides long.
The virus is most similar to members of the Xinmoviridae family.
Abstract
Sequence data indicate that a new virus, bee xinmovirus 1, is present in both honey bee (Apis mellifera) and mining bee (Andrena spp.) samples from Israel. The near-complete genome is approximately 13,130 nucleotides long and most similar to viruses of the family Xinmoviridae (S. Sharpe and S. Paraskevopoulou, J Gen Virol 104:001906, 2023, https://doi.org/10.1099/jgv.0.001906).
