Hmmm. Now the subject of genes has been brought up, one reads that there
isn't as much genetic variation in US bees as elsewhere through constant buying
in queens from breeders. In studying CCD has the genetic history of the
affected colonies been considered and compared with that of nearby unaffected
hives?
