Are you my mother? When host genetics and gut microbiota tell different phylogenetic stories in the Africanized honey bee hybrid (Apis mellifera scutellata × sspp.)

Are you my mother? When host genetics and gut microbiota tell different phylogenetic stories in the Africanized honey bee hybrid (Apis mellifera scutellata × sspp.)

ABSTRACT Africanized honey bees (Apis mellifera scutellata × sspp.) originated in Brazil through the crossbreeding of African (A. mellifera scutellata) and European (A. mellifera sspp.) honey bee subspecies. African genes came to dominate in these hybrid honey bees over time. Gut microbiota co-evolv...
