Genetic analysis of Apis mellifera macedonica (type rodopica) populations selectively reared for purposive production of honey bee queens in Bulgaria

The genetic polymorphism in selectively reared in Bulgaria, local honey bee populations of Apis mellifera macedonica subspecies (type rodopica), has been studied, using analysis of six enzyme systems (MDH-1, ME, EST-3, ALP, PGM and HK) corresponding to 6 loci.
