Description
In bee breeding (apiculture), colonies that exhibit a high resistance to varroa infection should be selected for. This clip shows how the mite infestation in test colonies is standardised by a starter infection and then how the infection development is determined in different colonies. From the film: Selection of Honey Bees.Credits
