>>Roger Morse once told me that he had bees to which he was unable to give AFB, so it can be done. Ray Lackey, president of Long Island Beekeepers' Club, has mentioned a couple of times "Brown bees." They could not be made to show AFB symptoms but were rather mean. The only reference I could find to Brown bees is this study from the 1970'sm (sorry about the long link): http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6WJV-4F1J0S7-V7&_user=10&_coverDate=03%2F31%2F1971&_rdoc=1&_fmt=high&_orig=search&_sort=d&_docanchor=&view=c&_searchStrId=1442517502&_rerunOrigin=google&_acct=C000050221&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=10&md5=68363946b23912ac8b7c42334d27cff6 Does anyone still keep Brown bees?
