The dispersal of yeasts, bacteria and molds by Drosophila and Hymenoptera was examined in a deciduous woods in Bloomington, Indiana. Drosophila were found to be significant vectors of yeasts and bacteria, while Hymenoptera also transmitted molds. Analyses of their microbe contents indicated sap feeding Drosophila carried mainly yeasts, fungus feeding Drosophila carried primarily bacteria and ants carried primarily molds.
在印第安纳州布卢明顿市的一片落叶林中，研究了果蝇和膜翅目昆虫对酵母、细菌和霉菌的传播情况。发现果蝇是酵母和细菌的重要传播媒介，而膜翅目昆虫也能传播霉菌。对它们体内微生物含量的分析表明，吸食树液的果蝇主要携带酵母，取食真菌的果蝇主要携带细菌，而蚂蚁主要携带霉菌。
