Pollen-borne microbes shape bee fitness [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2019 Teeming within pollen provisions are diverse communities of symbiotic microbes, which provide a variety of benefits to bees. Microbes themselves may represent a major dietary resource for developing bee larvae. Despite their apparent importance in sustaining bee health, evidence linking pollen-borne microbes to larval health is currently lacking.
