Intracolonial genetic variability in honeybee larval resistance to the chalkbrood and American foulbrood parasites

The origin of multiple mating of queens in social Hymenoptera is a widely debated topic in evolutionary biology. One of the hypotheses is that genetic variability would benefit the colony by increasing its resistance to parasites through various mechanisms. One among the predictions of this hypothes...
