For around five decades, the use the frame hive has grown and the majority of beekeepers are able today to manage modern frames hives. However, harvesting honey from wild colonies has not completely disappeared.

It has become increasingly clear that gut bacteria play vital roles in the development, nutrition, immunity, and overall fitness of their eukaryotic hosts.
