| This study aimed to estimate live weight, the length and the width of wing and abdomen and the length, the width and the height of thorax in newly emerged Africanized honeybee queens up to 192 hours and their influence on final quality regarding appropriate storage techniques in queen banking or incubator and to verify the possibility of using these parameters as selection criteria in honeybee breeding programs. Queen honeybees were produced in summer, autumn and winter. The queen production method used throughout the experiments was adapted from Doolittle, and 68 the queens were weighed at emergence. Data were analyzed in R software by regression analysis of queen weight at emergence according to life time after emergence, in two types of storage. The... |

| The citrus flower (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck) is attractive and the plant is cross pollination, and the main pollinator are the bees. The insect pollination, mainly Apis mellifera L., in this crop is important because the plant produces fruit in great quantity and of the best quality. The performance of A. mellifera as pollinator agent depends on several factors, like this, the nectar and pollen availability in flowers, climatic conditions, and physical aspects of soil. This pollination by Africanized honeybees in C. sinensis can generate more sweet fruits, besides rising the production about 30%. |
