Database of Arthropod Diseases
The database is a compilation representing the results of 55 years of diagnostic research on all kinds of dead and diseased arthropods.
More than 1,900 accessions comprising many thousands of dead or diseased specimens were examined and the causative agents diagnosed. The arthropod-pathogenic organisms belong to the group of viruses, bacteria, fungi, protists, and nematodes. The database comprises about 450 arthropod species, mainly insects, from 21 different arthropod orders, the diagnosed arthropod pathogens, and the origin of the accession.
The database is maintained by the JKI Institute for Biological Control, Darmstadt.
