>Today I am not sure that such colonies could survive wintering period.
When I have asked Dr. Kefuss what he would do differently if he had to start over, he has suggested he would have propagated two lines- one that survives with low MPG and one that survives despite high MPG. He mentions having had colonies that initially survived in both groups, but he selected only for resistance.
