Identification of peptides from honeybee gut symbionts as potential antimicrobial agents against Melissococcus plutonius
Abstract Eusocial pollinators are crucial elements in global agriculture. The honeybees and bumblebees are associated with a simple yet host-restricted gut community, which protect the hosts against pathogen infections. Recent genome mining has led to the discovery of biosynthesis pathways of bioact...
