A note on genetic parameters and accuracy of estimated breeding values in honey bees.

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 27 Nov 2019

Brascamp Evert W, Bijma Piter

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In honey bees, observations are usually made on colonies. The phenotype of a colony is affected by the average breeding value for the worker effect of the thousands of workers in the colony (the worker group) and by the breeding value for the queen effect of the queen of the colony. Because the worker group consists of multiple individuals, interpretation of the variance components and heritabilities...
