Genetic parameters for five traits in Africanized honeybees using Bayesian inference

Genetic parameters for five traits in Africanized honeybees using Bayesian inference

Heritability and genetic correlations for honey (HP) and propolis production (PP), hygienic behavior (HB), syrupcollection rate (SCR) and percentage of mites on adult bees (PMAB) of a population of Africanized honeybees were estimated. Data from 110 queen bees over three generations were evaluated....
