Quantity and Quality of Commercially Reared Queens as Affected by Number and Distribution of Artificially Grafted Queen Cells Within Queen-Less Honey Bee Colonies in the Middle Delta Region, Egypt
This work was conducted throughout the queen rearing process using starter-finisher queen-less honey bee colonies to evaluate the impact of different numbers of grafted larval queen cups (24 and 48 grafted cups/colony), the level of bar they hung on it (top, middle, and bottom), and their positions they located on the bar (peripheral and middle) on the percentages of accepted queen cells and queen...
