honey bee gut microbial profiles when fed phytochemicals

Honey bees were fed specific beneficial nectar and pollen derived phytochemicals to determine the changes in their gut microbial profile and discover possible associations with the known benefits.

研究人员向蜜蜂饲喂特定的有益花蜜及花粉来源植物化学物质（phytochemicals），以测定其肠道微生物谱（gut microbial profile）的变化，并探究该变化与已知有益效应间的潜在关联。
