 John Mitchell stated:
   Within only 1 week after their queen dies or is removed by beekeepers,
Africanized worker beesâEUR"which are femaleâEUR"can produce their own
viable eggs
for requeening the hive.
   That gives the Africanized bees a headstart in the battle for hive rule,
because European worker beesâEUR(tm) ovaries canâEUR(tm)t start producing
eggs until the
queen has been missing for at least 3 weeks.

Does this mean that the Africanised worker bees are laying diploid eggs as
opposed to haploid?
