A simulation study of a honeybee breeding scheme accounting for polyandry, direct and maternal effects on colony performance.

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 8 Sept 2021

Kistler Tristan, Basso Benjamin, Phocas Florence

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Efficient breeding programs are difficult to implement in honeybees due to their biological specificities (polyandry and haplo-diploidy) and complexity of the traits of interest, with performances being measured at the colony scale and resulting from the joint effects of tens of thousands of workers (called direct effects) and of the queen (called maternal effects). We implemented a Monte Carlo...
