Nationwide citizen science reveals core and rare osmotolerant yeast communities in Swedish honey
Honey represents an extreme microbial habitat, comprising >80% sugar, low pH, oxidative stress, and antimicrobial compounds. Despite these conditions, specialized yeast species persist in nectar and honey microbial communities, where their metabolic activity may contribute to honey maturation and chemistry. To characterize the diversity and functional traits of honey-associated yeasts, we…
