Came across the Research Council UK website which documents the amounts of cash they have given out for all sorts of things. So I thought I would have a look at Apis Millefera, these are the three that I found and thought were of interest.

Dr Mark Brown c/o University of London got £687K on top of an EC grant for £1.6million for "Impact and mitigation of emergent diseases on major UK insect pollinators " I interpret that as to look at the DWV and N. ceranae varients. Started Nov 2010. Nice to see IMO.
