Honeybee gut Lactobacillus modulates host learning and memory behaviors via regulating tryptophan metabolism

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Honeybees are highly social insects with a rich behavioral repertoire and are a versatile model for neurobiological research. Their gut microbiota comprises a limited number of host-restricted bacterial phylotypes that are important for honeybee health ...

Distinct Roles of Honeybee Gut Bacteria on Host Metabolism and Neurological Processes

open access: yesMicrobiology spectrum, 2022
The honeybee possesses a simple and host-restricted gut community that contributes to the metabolic health of its host, while the effects of bacterial symbionts on host neural functions remain elusive.

Olfactory coding in honeybees [PDF]

open access: yesCell and Tissue Research, 2021
Abstract With less than a million neurons, the western honeybee Apis mellifera is capable of complex olfactory behaviors and provides an ideal model for investigating the neurophysiology of the olfactory circuit and the basis of olfactory perception and learning.

Honeybee Exposure to Veterinary Drugs: How Is the Gut Microbiota Affected?

open access: yesMicrobiology spectrum, 2021
This study investigates the impact of the three most widely used antibiotics in the beekeeping sector (oxytetracycline, tylosin, and sulfonamides) on the honeybee gut microbiota and on the spread of antibiotic resistance genes. The research represents an
