Evolutionary Origin and Genetic Diversity of the Pannonian Ecotype of <i>Apis mellifera carnica</i> Colonies in Hungary Based on Mitochondrial DNA and Microsatellite Markers

Evolutionary Origin and Genetic Diversity of the Pannonian Ecotype of <i>Apis mellifera carnica</i> Colonies in Hungary Based on Mitochondrial DNA and Microsatellite Markers

Honey bees are crucial to both the ecosystem and the economy. However, they are subject to different influences that can lead to a loss of genetic diversity. In this study, we used mitochondrial DNA information and nuclear microsatellite markers to compare worker individuals that strictly meet the m...
