The influence of social lifestyles on host-microbe symbioses in the bees

2023-06-13

Abstract excerpt

1 Microbiomes are increasingly recognised as critical for the health of an organism. In eusocial insect societies, frequent social interactions allow for high fidelity transmission of microbes across generations, leading to closer host-microbe coevolution. The microbial communities of bees with different social lifestyles are less well studied, and few comparisons have been made between taxa that vary in social st...
