"--the researchers' data clearly show high varroa levels in the colonies in the UK going into winter."
Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
"In the UK, honey bees had a narrower diet breadth (fewer plant species present in pollen samples) than those of either Germany or Hungary (÷22=9.81, p= 0.001; Table S10). Honey bees in the UK and Hungary also foraged on higher proportions of pollen originating from oilseed rape than Germany (÷22=12.2, p<0.001; Table S10)."
CONTEXT MATTERS.
