Genomics and host specialization of honey bee and bumble bee gut symbionts.
Gilliamella apicola and Snodgrassella alvi are dominant members of the honey bee (Apis spp.) and bumble bee (Bombus spp.) gut microbiota. We generated complete genomes of the type strains G. apicola wkB1(T) and S. alvi wkB2(T) (isolated from Apis), as well as draft genomes for four other strains from Bombus. G. apicola and S. alvi were found to occupy very different metabolic niches: The former...
متن کاملSuperresolution Imaging Captures Carbohydrate Utilization Dynamics in Human Gut Symbionts
UNLABELLED Gut microbes play a key role in human health and nutrition by catabolizing a wide variety of glycans via enzymatic activities that are not encoded in the human genome. The ability to recognize and process carbohydrates strongly influences the structure of the gut microbial community. While the effects of diet on the microbiota are well documented, little is known about the molecular ...
متن کاملHidden Diversity in Honey Bee Gut Symbionts Detected by Single-Cell Genomics
Microbial communities in animal guts are composed of diverse, specialized bacterial species, but little is known about how gut bacteria diversify to produce genetically and ecologically distinct entities. The gut microbiota of the honey bee, Apis mellifera, presents a useful model, because it consists of a small number of characteristic bacterial species, each showing signs of diversification. ...
متن کاملUtilization of bee (Apis mellifera) honey for vinegar production at laboratory scale.
Vinegar was obtained from bee (Apis mellifera) honey. The wort was prepared by diluting honey in distilled water to 21% total solids and by adding ammonium sulfate and ammonium phosphate. Saccharomyces cerevisiae was inoculated to the wort (4 g/L). Ethanol production was carried out at room temperature during 84 hours. In this study, 1 Kg of honey yielded about 5 L of wine, containing 8% alcoho...
متن کاملOrganic Acid Production by Basidiomycetes
TAKAO, SHOICHI (Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan). Organic acid production by Basidiomycetes. I. Screening of acid-producing strains. Appl. Microbiol. 13:732737. 1965.-Sixty-seven strains belonging to 47 species of Basidiomycetes were examined for their acid-producing abilities in glucose media, in both the presence and absence of CaCO3, in stationary and shake cultures. Some strains were fo...
