Direct and indirect effects of land use on microbiomes of trap-nesting solitary bee larvae and nests by Birte Peters, Birte Peters, Birte Peters, Sara Diana Leonhardt, Michael Schloter, Alexander Keller

“…In this study, we investigated yet another facet currently less well investigated in such context: Microbial communities associated with wild bees play crucial roles in larval development, metabolism, immunity and overall bee health. However, the drivers and dynamics of healthy microbiome in solitary bees are still poorly understood, especially regarding the direct and indirect effects of land use on the diversity and composition of these microbial communities.MethodsWe examined bacterial communities in the offspring and nest materials of the Megachilid trap-nesting solitary bee, Osmia bicornis, along a gradient of land use intensification by 16S rRNA gene metabarcoding. …”
