Résumé

Viruses are known to contribute to the decline of bee populations. Twenty viruses have been described in Apis mellifera, and the most prevalenthoney bee viruses have been reported in six other genera of bees. Sharing the same resources may favour spillover of viruses between A. mellifera species and wild bees. To investigate possible cross-infections, we sampled for two years honeybees and wild bees from blooming Phacelia tanacaetifolia with several managed honey bee colonies nearby. More than 1000 specimens from ten genera of wild bees and wasps were collected and checked for the seven most common bee RNA viruses. In A. mellifera, Deformed wing virus (DWV), Black queen cell viruses (BQCV), Sacbrood virus (SBV) and Acute bee paralysis virus (ABPV) were confirmed to be the most prevalentviruses (> 60% of the specimens), while Israeli acute paralysis virus (IAPV), ABPV, and, surprisingly, brood viruses (BQCV, SBV) were the most prevalent in wild species. Phylogenetic studies suggest recentand/or frequent cross-infections, and possible same ancestral origin. Furthermore, 8 wild bee genera were hosting at least three viruses. Thus we infer that ”honeybee” viruses may be more generalists than was first evidenced from the managed honeybee colonies.
