Researchers have created the first comprehensive catalogue of #bacteriophages in the honey bee gut #microbiome, providing new insights into #BeeHealth, microbial ecology and host–virus interactions. 🐝🦠 📄 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-026-72757-2 👤 EVBC members: Nikolas Basler, Jelle Matthijnssens

doi.orgThe honey bee triad: a comprehensive catalogue of phages in the Apis mellifera gut microbiome - Nature CommunicationsThe gut microbiome of the honey bee is relatively simple, but its phages are not well studied. Here, Basler et al. use metagenomics to provide a comprehensive catalogue of honey bee gut phages across eight European countries, describing novel taxa as well as a core set of 97 prevalent phages.
