Gene reuse facilitates rapid radiation and independent adaptation to diverse habitats in the Asian honeybee
Animals with recent shared ancestry frequently adapt in parallel to new but similar habitats,
a process often underlined by repeated selection of the same genes. Yet, in contrast, few …

Vast differences in strain-level diversity in the gut microbiota of two closely related honey bee species
Most bacterial species encompass strains with vastly different gene content. Strain diversity
in microbial communities is therefore considered to be of functional importance. Yet little is …

Divergent evolutionary trajectories following speciation in two ectoparasitic honey bee mites
Multispecies host-parasite evolution is common, but how parasites evolve after speciating
remains poorly understood. Shared evolutionary history and physiology may propel species …
