Lack of evidence for trans-generational immune priming against the honey bee pathogen melissococcus plutonius

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Florine Ory et al. from the University of Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland have published the research: Lack of evidence for trans-generational immune priming against the honey bee pathogen Melissococcus plutonius, in the Journal: PLOS ONE of 27/Dec/2021
• what: In contrast to the study conducted by Hernau0301ndez Lou0301pez et_al , viable and not inactivated bacteria were used for exposure, in case inactivation hindered the putative priming mechanism. The authors aimed to determine whether trans-generational immune priming against M. plutonius could be triggered experimentally and whether it occurs naturally.
• future: In contrast . . .
