Further evidences of an emerging stingless bee-yeast symbiosis

G. T. de Paula, W. G. P. Melo, I. de Castro, C. Menezes, C. R. Paludo, C. A. Rosa, M. T. Pupo

The paper identifies Zygosaccharomyces yeasts in brood cells of 8 stingless bee species, showing similar morphology and lipid accumulation to known symbionts, and suggests evolutionary adaptation for nutritional support.

Metagenomics reveals diet-specific specialization of bacterial communities in fungus gardens of grass- and dicot-cutter ants

L. Khadempour, H. Fan, K. Keefover-Ring, C. Carlos, N. S. Nagamoto, M. A. Dam, M. T. Pupo, C. R. Currie

The paper examines bacterial community differences in fungus gardens of grass- and dicot-cutter ants, finding distinct compositions and functional profiles linked to substrate type.
