Apis mellifera honeybee brood rearing in laboratory conditions has been frequentely used to search for larval development, caste determination, and more recently for tests of pathogenesis. The amount and quality of food received by larvae during the feeding time can produce different castes (queen, worker or intercaste). In the present work, brood were reared from larvae with 18-24 hours old to adult bee stage and fed 4, 15, 25, 50 e 70 µl of a special diet . To determine […]
