– Comments of Brother Adam †1996 ...

This year matings of F-52 daughters with B-278 drones produce the 1st generation of F1 ...

  • ... queens ... it's not quite correct: they are pure F queens with B semen within spermatheca
  • ... honeybee workers ... its quite correct: each worker is F×B chromosomes
  • ... colony, formed with pure F1 workers
  • ... not F1! the drones of this colony are quite pure F×F (pure F)
