Evaluation of Apis mellifera Carniolan and Africanized honey bees in royal jelly production [PDF]
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2004 Investigations were carried out to evaluate Africanized and Carniolan hybrid Apis mellifera honeybees in royal jelly production. Ten colonies were randomly collected in nature and housed in Langstroth beehives. Each hive was having two nuclei with five frames. In superior nucleus frame was containing 28 acrylic cups in two bars.
