Engineering bacteria to save honey bees

Year: 2021

Type: article

Abstract: Honey bees are essential industrious insects, which pollinate crops and help ensure you have enough food to eat. But their health is threatened by viruses and parasites. New technology genetically engineers bacteria inhabiting the bee gut to boost bee immunity and help them fight off their enemies. - submission by Sean Leonard, Nancy Moran
