   You might try contacting  Bob Brachman     7590 Maples Rd.    Little
Valley,  NY     14755.  I know he's working on mite resistance.  Vince
Coppola may know more about his project too.
 
    He's a young queen breeder, just getting established.   You might jack
him up to get with the times, and get online.
 
    BTW, he has nice stock, whether or not it is mite resistant.  I've seen
it.
