Description

Animal breeding has evolved into a highly sophisticated field, making substantial changes to numerous livestock species worldwide. Such changes are largely absent in the Western Honeybee, Apis mellifera. Direct transfer of methodologies can be difficult due to differences in animal biology and production systems. Largely as a result of the high importance of honeybee pollination to agricultural production, beekeeping industries worldwide are changing their management strategies and moving tow...
