Abstract | ||||
The present work aimed to study the effect of incubation type on protein contents of the ovaries of queens (different ages) and effect of locality on protein contents in drone stages . Protein contents of newly emerged queens (0-day old) which incubated in an incubator ( artificial incubation )were higher than in those incubated in a colony (natural incubation ), and decreased with age . But queens which kept in a colony, the protein contents increased according to queen age . Also , there were significant differences between protein content in the haemolymph of mature drones produced in two localities Giza and Alexandria . This difference might have been caused by the supply of pollen by nurse bee in the colony . | ||||
