Thesis Project : "Detection of Honeybee Viruses in Apis cerana and Apis mellifera from Vietnam"
- The project aims to identify, characterize the prevalence, and investigate the genetic diversity of viruses affecting Asian and Western honeybees.
- Performed RNA extraction using the TRIzol reagent.
- Set up a PCR reaction using specific primers.
- Analyzed the PCR products with reference sequences in NCBI.
- Aligned the obtained DNA sequences using BioEdit software.
- Used MEGA software for phylogenetic tree construction, analyzed to infer the evolutionary relationships and genetic diversity among honeybee viruses.
