Deep Divergence and Genomic Diversification of Gut Symbionts of Neotropical Stingless Bees

Deep Divergence and Genomic Diversification of Gut Symbionts of Neotropical Stingless Bees

ABSTRACT Social bees harbor conserved gut microbiotas that may have been acquired in a common ancestor of social bees and subsequently codiversified with their hosts. However, most of this knowledge is based on studies on the gut microbiotas of honey bees and bumblebees. Much less is known about the...
