Turnover of strain-level diversity modulates functional traits in the honeybee gut microbiome between nurses and foragers

Abstract Background Strain-level diversity is widespread among bacterial species and can expand the functional potential of natural microbial communities. However, to what extent communities undergo consistent shifts in strain composition in response to environmental/host changes is less well unders...
