Bee Genetics and Breeding provides an overview of the state of knowledge in bee genetics and breeding. The book is organized into two parts. Part I deals with the scholarly issues of bee genetics. It is intended as a reference source for students of both bees and genetics. It could also serve as a text for university courses in bee genetics. Topics discussed include the evolution of eusocial insects; geographical variability and classification of honey bees; and behavioral and biochemical genetics of honey bees. Part II deals more specifically with the practical issues of bee breeding. The discussions include the quantitative genetics of honey bees; ways to define and measure honey-bee characteristics so that the "best" parents for honey-bee stock improvement programs can be selected; and mating designs. This section contains sufficient guidance for bee breeders to initiate or improve breeding programs. Apiculturalists generally will find this part especially interesting since the quality of their own bee stock depends on the skills and knowledge of the breeders who produce their queens.

Russian honey bees are a stock of honey bees that were bred to be resistant to Varroa mites and have good beekeeping functionality for both honey production and pollination. This book describes the project to produce the Russian honey bee stock, conducted over 20 years of work by the combined efforts of scientists and beekeepers. Practical information on the management of Russian honey bees is combined with understandable summaries of the extensive scientific literature on Russian honey bees from a variety of scientific journals. Chapter headings include: Basic Varroa Biology, Early History of the Russian Honey Bee Stock, Stock Formation, Resistance to Varroa, Stock Certification, Management of Russian Honey Bees, The Russian Honey Bee Breeders Association and A Beekeeper's Perspective. Whether readers are looking for a comprehensive overview of scientific aspects of Russian honey bees or guidelines for the practical management of Russian honey bees, they will find it in "Russian Honey Bees".Thomas Rinderer received his PhD training in honey bee genetics and pathology from Walter Rothenbuhler at The Ohio State University in the early 1970's. In 1975, he joined the USDA's Honey Bee Breeding, Genetics and Physiology Laboratory in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He became the Laboratory's Research Director in 1977 and served in that role until his retirement in 2016. He is the author of nearly 350 research publications that address the topics of honey bee breeding, genetics, population genetics, behavior, biodiversity and pathology. His work has been recognized by numerous awards from national and international organizations. He has served as senior editor of both Honey Bee Science and the Journal of Apicultural Research. The last 20 years of his professional career were devoted to transforming the notion of having Russian honey bees in the U.S. from an interesting idea to a hearty and valuable honey bee stock that has excellent beekeeping functionality and is uniquely resistant to Varroa mites.Steven Coy is a second-generation commercial beekeeper who grew up in northeast Arkansas, where his family operated 10,000 hives for honey production and almond pollination. He earned a Bachelor's degree in Plant Science and a Master's degree in Biology from Arkansas State University. He moved to Mississippi in 2006 to manage the southern portion of Coy's Honey Farm and in 2014 he started Coy Bee Company, LLC to focus on producing purebred Russian queens and nucs.He has been an active member of state and local beekeeping organizations and has served as a member of the Executive Board of the American Honey Producers Association since 2010. He is one of the original members of the Russia Honey Bee Breeders Association and was President of the Russian Honeybee Breeders Association from 2012-2016 and currently serves on the board of directors.Steven currently produces and sells Russian queens and nucs throughout the country and produces honey from about 1500 Russian colonies.

The rationale behind a bee breeding programme for improvement of honeybee colonies is given together with a detailed description of simplified morphometric techniques which can be used to identify honeybee races or sub species. These techniques also indicate whether the breeder queen bee will breed true. The new edition includes an introduction to bee breeding as a means of controlling Varroa and a guide to computer-based record keeping.
