Genomic Analysis of 48 Paenibacillus larvae Bacteriophages
Viruses, 2018 The antibiotic-resistant bacterium Paenibacillus larvae is the causative agent of American foulbrood (AFB), currently the most destructive bacterial disease in honeybees. Phages that infect P. larvae were isolated as early as the 1950s, but it is only in

Molecular basis of antibiotic self-resistance in a bee larvae pathogen
Nature Communications, 2022 The authors show that the N-acetyltransferase PamZ acts as a self-resistance factor disabling the antibacterial paenilamicin that is produced by the honey bee larvae pathogen Paenibacillus larvae.

INHIBITION EFFECT OF SOME NEW TYPES OF LACTIC ACID BACTERIA (EXTRACTED FOR GUT OF THE HONEYBEE Apis mellifera) AGINST Paeni bacillus larvae larvae [PDF]
Journal of Plant Protection and Pathology, 2015 The probiotic lactic acid bacterium (LAB) was reported in the gut of the honeybee Apis mellifera. Partial 16S rRNA gene sequences of the bacterial flora found in the gut of the honeybee workers, revealed the presence of seven novel strain of LAB. Five of
