Microbiome associated with the gut of Saudi Arabian forager bees
The gut microbiome of forager honeybees (Apis mellifera jemenitica) from Saudi Arabia (Madinah) was investigated to evaluate the composition and spatial organization in different gut portions. Microbiological analyses were performed on the dissected guts compartments (i.e., crop, midgut, ileum and rectum) of honeybee foragers. High-throughput sequencing of bacterial 16S rRNA gene and fungal ITS2 region were used to investigate the microbial communities associated to the gut compartments of this insect.
The accession and its GCC connection are verified. Registration alone does not establish that the broader research programme remains active.
