Co-incubation of dsRNA reduces proportion of viable spores of Ascosphaera apis, a honey bee fungal pathogen

J. P. Tauber, R. Einspanier, J. D. Evans, D. P. McMahon

The paper shows that co-incubating Ascosphaera apis spores with dsRNA reduces viable spore proportion, suggesting RNAi can target this fungal pathogen.
