Advances in Cytology and Genetics of Bees

Abstract

Seven previous papers have reviewed the genetics, cytology, and evolution of bees (33, 37, 41, 59, 60, 63, 64). As is the case in every field of science good progress in bee genetics is being made, not only by those whose contributions deal directly with bees but also by those whose interest is in other Hymenoptera (15, 26, 69) and whose studies have an indirect but important impact on our understanding of the genetics of bees.
