Footnotes

**: ** colony without performance tests
(): Breeding values in brackets are estimated without own measurement.

Notice

The small number on the breeding value is the reliability of the breeding value. The reliability is a measure of the estimated accuracy of the breeding value estimation and lies between 0 for inaccurate and 1 for accurate.

The code of a queen consists of

ISO country: ISO 3166-1 ALPHA-2 Code
Association: 1-2-digit-number, see Association numbers
Breeder: 1-3-digit-number (available from your state association)
Studbook number: ID of the queen
Year of birth: Queen's year of birth (4-digit-number)

For disease susceptibility the evaluation is as follows:

	susceptible to disease
	medium susceptibility to disease
	relative resistance to disease
	no evaluation because of too little data

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.
