The effects of honey compared with sucrose and a sugar-free diet on neutrophil phagocytosis and lymphocyte numbers after long-term feeding in rats

, 2007
To determine whether honey and sucrose would have differential effects on levels of neutrophil phagocytosis after long-term feeding 36 2-month old Sprague Dawley rats were fed a powdered diet that was either sugar-free or contained 7.9% sucrose or 10 ...

Morphological Diversity of Moroccan Honey Bees (Apis mellifera L. 1758): Insights from a Geometric Morphometric Study of Wing Venation in Honey Bees from Different Climatic Regions

Diversity
The morphological diversity of Moroccan honey bees (Apis mellifera) was investigated using geometric morphometrics to assess wing venation patterns among three populations representing three climatic zones: desert, semiarid, and Mediterranean. A total of
