Breeding values for 2017 (State from 15.4.2018)
Use of genetic evaluation data for publications or commercial purposes is subject to permission by the Institute for Bee Research Hohen Neuendorf, Germany, Länderinstitut für Bienenkunde Hohen Neuendorf e.V.
The performance index is composed of the breeding value for honey yield, gentleness, calmness and swarming tendency in equal proportions.
From now on, if the mother (2a) of a queen has the same breeder code as the queen herself (1a), the line designation of the mother (if available) is transferred and the generation number, increased by one, is entered if available for the mother.
