Global similarity, and some key differences, in the metagenomes of Swedish varroa-surviving and varroa-susceptible honeybees

Abstract There is increasing evidence that honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) can adapt naturally to survive Varroa destructor, the primary cause of colony mortality world-wide. Most of the adaptive traits of naturally varroa-surviving honeybees concern varroa reproduction. Here we investigate whether fa...
