Microbial Evolution in Allodapine Bees: Perspectives From Trophallactic, Socially Plastic Pollinators. [PDF]
Evol ApplABSTRACT This review seeks a deeper functional understanding of wild bee microbiomes by focusing on a tribe of bees where natural history and behavioral ecology are well known but investigations of microbiology are just beginning. Opportunities to improve our future knowledge of pathogens to insect pollinators are explored—which have broad ...
