International audience
Show more [+] Less [-]English. Here, scientists from 19 European countries, most of them collaborating in Working Group 4: “Diversity and Vitality” of COST Action FA 0803 “Prevention of honey bee COlony LOSSes” (COLOSS), review the methodology applied in each country for discriminating between honey bee populations. Morphometric analyses (classical and geometric) and different molecular markers have been applied. Even if the approach has been similar, however, different methodologies regarding measurements, landmarks or molecular markers may have been used, as well as different statistical procedures. There is therefore the necessity to establish common methods in all countries in order to have results that can be directly compared. This is one of the goals of WG4 of the COLOSS project

Científicos de 19 países europeos, la mayoría de ellos colaboradores del Grupo de Trabajo 4: "Diversidad y Vitalidad" de la Acción COST FA 0803 "Prevención de la mortalidad de colmenas" (COLOSS), revisan aquí la metodología aplicada en cada país para discriminar a las poblaciones de abejas. Se han aplicado análisis morfométricos (clásico y geométrico) y distintos marcadores moleculares. Incluso si el enfoque ha sido el mismo, se han usado diferentes metodologías en relación a las medidas, puntos de referencia o marcadores moleculares, así como diferentes procedimientos estadísticos. Por lo tanto, existe la necesidad de establecer métodos comunes en todos los países para tener resultados que puedan ser directamente comparados. Este es uno de los objetivos del GT4 del proyecto COLOSS.
