Abstract: Beekeeping is very important in order to obtain a high-value food product which is honey and as a means to increase the yield and develop seed production of many crops. Adults of the bee family and the brood at all stages of its development can be exposed to various diseases that cause great damage to the apiaries. Sick bee families demonstrate premature death of a significant number of adult bees and reduced number of grown brood. Soon after the disease bee families become weak and may die, if not to take urgent measures to improve their health. Successful development of beekeeping in the Republic of Tatarstan is constrained by the presence and negative impact of infectious and invasive bee diseases.
