The paper compares empirical and metabarcoding-based trait data for tardigrade communities along a land-use gradient, finding similar trait trends but limited correlation in functional dispersion.

The paper compares ethanol levels and crop microbiota in foraging and caged honeybees, finding no significant ethanol difference but microbial shifts in caged bees.

This study shows that honeybees infected with Nosema ceranae consume more ethanol-spiked food, which may reduce their mortality, suggesting a potential self-medication behavior.

This study examines the effects of low-level ethanol exposure on honey bees over 14 days, finding no significant performance differences but elevated trehalose levels in ethanol-exposed bees.

This study examines the effects of constant and occasional ethanol exposure on honey bee mortality and ADH activity, finding increased mortality with higher exposure frequency.

This study characterizes the microbiota of 44 cultured tardigrade species, finding that microbial communities are largely from environmental sources, with limited evidence of true symbiotic associations.
