RE>>DNA/protein markers & Buckfast bee 12/4/96
Concerning the request for references on DNA markers, genetics and
quantitative trait loci study for bees, I suggest as a general reference the
book: Bee Genetics and Breeding, 1986, edited by T.E. Rinderer, Academic
Press. As of last year there is a genetic map of the honey bee based on 365
DNA markers: Genetics 139:1371-1382. Also, we used the map to find 2
quantitative trait loci that indicate the positions of two genes affecting
foraging behavior have been identified on this map: Genetics 141:1537-1545.
