    The investigation propolis foraging preference of different honey bee races
    (Centenary University, 2021) Eroğlu, N.; Kambur Acar, M.; Kekeçoğlu, M.
    In this study, it was investigated whether different bee breeds prefer different plant sources to collect propolis. For this purpose four different honey bee race (Apis mellifera caucasica, A. m. carnica, A. m. syriaca and A. m. anatoliaca) naturally have been in Turkey were placed in the same isolated apiary; and Propolis was harvested from these races. chemical contents of alcoholic extractions of the harvested propolis were were analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LCMS / MS). In addition that, the pollen content of the same propolis samples were determined with a microscope. According to the LCMS / MS results the propolis samples collected by different honey bee race differed significantly in terms of quercetin and ferulic acid. Data obtained from polen analyses revealed that Fabaceae and Apiaceae (PD <45%) families were mostly detected in propolis samples obtained from different races. Although the polen from the Campanulaceae family was dedected only in the propolis samples from A. m. anatoliaca race, thr polen from Caryophyllaceae family was found in other propolis samples collected by A. m caucasica races. The results of this study showed that different honey bee races tend to different plant sources and the content of propolis may differ according to the bee races. © 2021, Centenary University.

    Is the natural honey bee biodiversity of anatolia in the process of extinction?
    (Centenary University, 2020) Kambur Acar, M.; Kekeçoğlu, M.
    This study was conducted through the geometric morphometric method by making a sampling as to represent seven geographical regions of Turkey and also all honeybee races that are reported to be found in Turkey. Nineteen landmarks on the wings of bees detected by using right front wings of worker bees were measured by the Bs200Pro program. According to the results of discriminant function analysis based on individual data, the true classification rate was found to be 54.1%. While the Marmara, Aegean, Eastern Anatolia and Black Sea Regions formed a strictly single group, the Southeastern Anatolia Region distinctly separated from other regions. The honey bee population of eastern and western parts of the Mediterranean Sea were divided into two, while the western part formed close groups with other regions, the eastern part got closer to the Southeastern Anatolia Region. The group center of the Central Anatolia Region partly separated from the other regions and formed a group at the edge. Beside the split of the Mediterranean Region as East and West, the samples taken from Southeastern Anatolian Region create a separate group supported the existence of Apis mellifera syriaca and Apis mellifera meda races in the South. The separation of the Central Anatolia Region supports the existence of Apis mellifera anatoliaca in Central Anatolia of Turkey. However, the examples taken from other regions nested together to create a group show that the honey bee biodiversity in Turkey has been affected by the migratory beekeeping and commercial queenbee activities in recent years. © 2020, Centenary University.
