Table 1.

Effect of glyphosate, N. ceranae, and both stress factors on honey bee gut microbiota, immunity, DWV infection level and syrup consumption, evaluated by generalized linear mixed models. p values under 0.05 were considered statistically significant and are shown in bold. * indicates interaction between factors.
