This study presents the results of the analysis of subspecies of honeybee from Altai krai using SSR loci Ap243, 4a110, A24, A8, A43, A113, A88, Ap049, and A28 and the mtDNA COI–COII locus. It was found that the allelic variant PQQ COI–COII of mtDNA, characteristic of the evolutionary lineage M, prevails in the studied sample of seven districts of Altai krai. Analysis of microsatellite loci showed that a quarter of colonies are of hybrid origin. Despite the fact that we covered only a small part of the population, the results obtained indicate that the dark forest bee has survived in Altai krai.
