Compartmentalization of bacterial and fungal microbiomes in the gut of adult honeybees

Abstract The core gut microbiome of adult honeybee comprises a set of recurring bacterial phylotypes, accompanied by lineage-specific, variable, and less abundant environmental bacterial phylotypes. Several mutual interactions and functional services to the host, including the support provided for g...
