  1. 1. Seasonal shift in the intestinal microbiota of honey bees, Apis mellifera

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Jonathan Meijer; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Honey bees, Apis mellifera, are important pollinators across the world who provide the crucial function of maintaining the health and wellbeing of natural and agricultural ecosystems. However, in recent years, there has been a documented decline in honey bee populations worldwide. READ MORE

  2. 2. Isolation of an ammonia-tolerant syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacterium originating from a thermophilic biogas digester

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Malin Tiefensee; [2023]
    Keywords : thermophilic; ammonia-tolerant; syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacterium;

    Abstract : Syntrophic relationships between fatty acid degrading bacteria and hydrogenotrophic methanogens are important for a well-functioning anaerobic degradation process during biogas production from organic waste material. This is particularly important in biogas processes fed protein-rich material as their degradation gives rise to high levels of ammonia, which inhibits many microorganisms. READ MORE

  3. 3. 16S comparison and analysis of the microbiomes of individuals from the same hive of Apis mellifera bees

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Anzor Merzhoyev; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Apis Mellifera is the most abundant of the honeybee species thus making it one of the most crucial pollinators across the globe. It is a species that is in decline, it is important to understand these creatures in order to preserve its populations. READ MORE

  4. 4. 16S Nanopore sequencing of Lactobacillus spp. in Apis mellifera, and investigation of their bacteriocin activity

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Simon Kjellman; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Apis mellifera is the most common honeybee species in the world. In recent years, there have been several reports of declines in wild, and domesticated populations. Central to honeybee health are the mutualistic relationships they have with their intestinal microbiome. READ MORE

  5. 5. Lactobacillus spp. in honey bees of southwestern Sweden : A feasible gut-analysis via long-read 16S nanopore sequencing

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Erik Xinxo; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Together with other pollinating animals, honeybees maintain an ecological stability and pollinate both wild and cultivated plants, contributing to the preservation of natural ecosystems and overall security of food production. Unfortunately, honeybees across the world are dying at a dramatic rate, which is very dangerous for the biosecurity of this planet. READ MORE
