Dang, Chris, I should be more specific. They downsized them prior to having
them draw out the small cell foundation.
They started with packages of arbitrarily chosen bees, homogenized. The
queens did not come from downsized queen cells.
I feel that the study was well done, other than the duration being to short
to completely satisfy all doubters.
