Funded PhD opportunity at the University of Warwick in the United Kingdom on sporulation biology of a honey-bee pathogen . This project focuses on Paenibacillus larvae , the bacterium that causes American Foul Brood (AFB) in honeybee larvae. AFB is a serious notifiable disease in many countries, including the UK, and has major consequences for beekeeping and pollinator health. The research aims to build a deeper molecular understanding of how this spore-forming pathogen completes its life cycle ...
