Routes of Acquisition of the Gut Microbiota of the Honey Bee Apis mellifera.

abstract：:The food-borne pathogenic bacterium Listeria is known for relatively low morbidity and high mortality rates, reaching up to 25 to 30%. Listeria is a hardy organism, and its control in foods represents a significant challenge. Many naturally occurring compounds, including the bacteriocin nisin and a number of plant ess...
