This study shows that a temperate phage can both aid Bifidobacterium gut colonization and increase sensitivity to antibiotics in honey bees.

This study profiles antimicrobial resistance genes in bee microbiomes, finding higher diversity on plasmids in honey bees compared to bumble bees and different tetracycline resistance mechanisms.

This study compares total metagenomes and viromes to assess phage communities in bee guts, finding that viromes enrich for phage in honey bees but total metagenomes capture more diverse phage in bumble bees.
