Abstract excerpt

The genetic integrity of European Apis mellifera subspecies has been increasingly threatened. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) analysis is widely used to investigate honey bee lineage distribution. Honey represents a valuable source of environmental DNA (eDNA), containing traces of all the organisms involved in its production, including the honey bees, and can therefore be used to obtain insights on honey bee population...
