Marine Animal Microbiomes: Toward Understanding Host–Microbiome Interactions in a Changing Ocean (2017, background): “While host–microbiome symbiosis and dysbiosis has been mostly considered in humans and humanized models (Hamdi et al., 2011; Nicholson et al., 2012; Scharschmidt and Fischbach, 2013), many of the same concepts are applicable to organisms in the sea (Egan and Gardiner, 2016), and are being explored i”
An emerging paradigm of colony health: microbial balance of the honey bee and hive (Apis mellifera) (2011, background): “…hives treated with lactic and acetic acids prevent pathogen infections, lactic and acetic acid bacteria native to the honey bee are obvious starting places for probiotic development as they are highly effective in colonizing the sugar rich digestive system and hive environment (Hamdi et al., 2011).”
Socially transmitted gut microbiota protect bumble bees against an intestinal parasite (2011, background): “However, evidence is thus far lacking for a potential role of the bee gut microbiota in protecting against parasitic infections in workers, which is the caste most exposed to the environment (15).”
