So, let me get this straight, regressing is defined as reducing cell size
which has an effect on reducing worker body size? (at 0.2 mm increments)
which when combined over a generation or three will reduce varroa mite
population?  This sounds like an interesting biological control.  But
wouldn't the mite react in time?  What does the reduced cell volume equate
to honey or comb yield?

I'm confused?
