    Diseased Honeybee Colony

    "At a quarantined bee yard, Pennsylvania State University entomologist Dennis vanEngelsdorp studies colony collapse disorder and the bee diseases thought to cause it.  

    This panorama of a struggling comb reveals dangers such as Chalkbrood fungus, Sacbrood virus infections. and even invading bees. Also seen are bees in various stages of development, glistening pots of nectar and stashes of yellow “bee bread,” the wads of protein-packed pollen that bees eat for food.

    Such imagery provides “a unique and interactive tool by which bee biology and brood-disease identification could be delivered,” vanEngelsdorp wrote on GigaPan.org."
