In this research project, combine microbiology and biotechnology and work on understanding the stability of the mobile genetic element found in the honey bee pathogen Paenibacillus larvae. Honeybee phages are viruses that infect bacteria living in or on bees. These phages are crucial for regulating microbial communities and potentially fighting diseases like American Foulbrood (AFB) caused by Paenibacillus […]
