Seasonal variability of prevalence and occurrence of multiple infections shape the population structure of
MicrobiologyOpen, 2012 AbstractErgonomic growth phases of annual social insect societies strongly influence horizontally transmitted parasites. Herein, we focused on the impact of temporal changes in host demography on the population structure of a horizontally transmitted parasite.

Trypanosoma spp. Neobats: Insights about those poorly known trypanosomatids
International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2021 Bats are infected with several trypanosomatid species; however, assessing the diversity of this interaction remains challenging since there are species apparently unable to grow in conventional culture media.

The Pathogens Spillover and Incidence Correlation in Bumblebees and Honeybees in Slovenia
Pathogens, 2021 Slovenia has a long tradition of beekeeping and a high density of honeybee colonies, but less is known about bumblebees and their pathogens. Therefore, a study was conducted to define the incidence and prevalence of pathogens in bumblebees and to ...

Do pesticide and pathogen interactions drive wild bee declines?
International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2022 There is clear evidence for wild insect declines globally. Habitat loss, climate change, pests, pathogens and environmental pollution have all been shown to cause detrimental effects on insects. However, interactive effects between these stressors may be

Core symbionts, age at inoculation and diet affect colonization of the bumblebee gut by a common bacterial pathogen. [PDF]
J Anim EcolThis paper examines ecological interactions within the bumblebee gut microbiome and between the microbiome and host using field sampling and controlled experiments. We demonstrate that non‐core bacteria occur frequently in high abundance in wild bumblebee gut microbiomes.
