From: abeille.burgonde@wanadoo.fr (Jan 09, 2004 15:35 EST) those bees have an immediate suppression of mites but what about the quantity of honey these bees produce?

From: Zach Huang (Mar 10, 2004 06:53 EST) As far as I know, honey production is not tested yet. John usually workd on one character at a time, then try to incorporate the genes into local populations (like his SMRD traits). [add comment] | |
