Recent studies on the microbial population of the honeybee, Apis mellifera, intestine have revealed an apparently highly specific community of resident bacteria that might play a role in immune defence and food preservation for their hosts. However, very little is studied about the diversity of bacteria on honeybee in Korea. We examined microbial population of the honeybee intestine for their bacterial communities. We used a molecular approach based on sequencing the 16S rRNA gene, called pyrosequencing. The microbial population in intestine was mostly dominated by Escherichia coli with more than 96%. The all others can be minors with less than 3%: Escherichia fergusonii, Bartonella sp., Escherichia sp., Enterobacteriaceae gen. sp., Lactobacillaceae gen. sp., Citrobacter sp., Neisserianceae gen. sp., Oscillatoriaceae gen. sp., Enterobacteriales sp., Erysipelotrichales sp., Bifidobacterium asteroides, Rhizobiales fam. gen. sp., Pantoea sp., Yokenella sp., Enterobacter sp., and Bacteriodes sp. This results could serve as a basis for monitoring further changes in the distribution of bacterial communities on honeybee in Korea.
