Importance of brood maintenance terms in simple models of the honeybee - Varroa destructor - acute bee paralysis virus complex
We present a simple mathematical model of the infestation of a honeybee colony by the Acute Paralysis Virus, which is carried by parasitic varroa mites (Varroa destructor). This is a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations for the dependent variables: number of mites that carry the v...
