Genetic Divergence of Turkish Apis mellifera Subspecies Based on Sequencing of ND5 Mitochondrial Segment

Mitochondrial DNA sequence variation can be used to infer honey bee evolutionary relationships. In this study, DNA sequence diversity in the ND5 region of the mitochondrial genome was investigated in 93 samples of Apis mellifera from 15 different populations in Turkey. Five novel haplotypes were re...
