Genetics of the Honey BeeMention of the word 'genetics' turns many beekeepers off ! But as a non biologist who is nuts about honey bees, I had to do some research for myself and learn from scratch. The learning process is not that bad as there comes a point where all of a sudden you start to understand some of what is being said by others. Genetics in honey bees is complicated by multiple mating and haplo-diploidy, DNA analysis techniques help us to understand the history behind the bee races that we have today. |
