Where did THAT "assertion" come from?

In the last five years or so we have had perhaps 15-20 widely dispersed remote feral samples tested. Four were Africanized (two of those destroyed, two not yet because of their remoteness). The rest were European, one being Middle-eastern (O1). Quite a few healthy, gentle hives have been raised from the feral colonies.
