摘要:
The multiple mating behaviour ofApis melliferaqueens is an important reproductive characteristic of this species. Estimates of the number of drones that mate with a queen can be obtained through segregation analysis of genetic markers in samples of workers from several colonies. Statistical methods have been developed that allow estimation of this parameter using segregations of worker genotypes at one locus for which the genotypes of queens are known.
