Program title: BR10764957 "Development of technologies for the effective management of the selection (breeding) process in beekeeping"

Applicant: "Kazakh Research Institute of Animal Husbandry and Fodder Production" LLP

Scientific supervisor: K.A. Temirbayeva

Implementation period: 2021–2023

Relevance

The relevance of the research work within the project lies in the breadth of its scope and in the use of results obtained through the application of new methods for determining the purity of bred bees, reducing the import of queen bees of unknown origin, decreasing the production of hybrid bee colonies, and increasing the output of beekeeping products.

The use of modern software-analytical methods for assessing the breed composition of bees within the framework of a breed zoning plan will increase product output in domestic beekeeping by 20–30%. The certification (passportization) and conservation of Kazakhstani bee populations will strengthen Kazakhstan's role in preserving biodiversity on the planet.

Annotation of results obtained, by year:

Based on an analysis of the world literature in the field of beekeeping and the research results obtained while solving the assigned tasks within the project on managing the selection process in beekeeping, the following conclusions were drawn.

To reach the milestones set out in the work schedule during project implementation, three main tasks were carried out over three years under the conditions of base beekeeping farms.

A breed zoning program for honey bee breeds was developed, taking into account their acclimatization to the conditions of the six natural-climatic zones of Kazakhstan. The breed affiliation of bees was established through the application of modern methods of morphometry and molecular-genetic analysis of the managed honey bee and aboriginal bee populations. A database was created using the newly developed ApisLab program, designed specifically for beekeeping, with all functional capabilities: record-keeping and determination of the breed affiliation of honey bees. World experience was analyzed and applied during research to identify effective methods for breeding local populations and the Ukrainian steppe, Carpathian, and Central Russian bee breeds; for remote monitoring of the main vital-activity indicators of bees; and for conducting selection and pedigree work, determining the direction of bee selection, genotyping each breed, and compiling a map indicating their location across the natural-climatic zones of Kazakhstan.

It was established that in the six natural-climatic zones of the 17 regions of Kazakhstan, only the honey bee breeds A.m. carnica and A.m. carpatica are widespread — in the desert, steppe, forest-steppe, and foothill zones — whereas A.m. mellifera and aboriginal local bees are bred on farms located in the semi-desert and forest-steppe zones. The relationships of the bred breeds to the three existing evolutionary lineages — C, M, and O — were determined. It was established that A.m. carnica and A.m. carpatica belong to evolutionary lineage C, the Central Russian breed to lineage M, and the aboriginal and Caucasian hybrid bees to lineage O.

Methods of morphometry and molecular-genetic analysis were applied to determine breed affiliation. To analyze breed purity by the classical and geometric methods, samples of the right forewing of bees were used at coordinates 8, 12, and 19, which made it possible to assess the bred honey bee populations across all zones of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The economically useful traits, productivity, and exterior data of all bred breeds and populations were studied under the conditions of the adapted natural-climatic zones of Kazakhstan.

All three wing indices — cubital, hantel (dumbbell), and discoidal — were determined by studying more than three thousand samples of honey bees of the bred breeds and the aboriginal population. It was established that the cubital index (Ci) ranges from 2.438 to 2.946 in the Carpathian breed, from 2.66 to 2.90 in the Carniolan (Krainian) breed, and from 2.253 to 2.274 in crossbred bees. These data demonstrate the interbreed differences among the bred bee breeds. When studying the exterior data of bees, attention was paid to proboscis length, on which honey productivity depends. The proboscis length of the Carpathian breed ranged from 6.072 to 6.462, in the Carniolan breed from 6.184 to 6.231, and in crossbreds it averaged 6.086–6.455 mm.

A comparative analysis of the productivity (honey, wax) and egg-laying capacity of the Kazakhstani population of the Carniolan and Carpathian breeds against reference populations of foreign breeding programs established that, across all parameters, the domestic population matches the data of foreign breeding. For example: the average wax productivity of domestically bred Carpathian bees was 1.39 versus 1.28 for foreign bees, and for the Carniolan breed it was 0.77 domestically versus 0.76 abroad. Thus, the comparison with reference populations confirmed that the Carniolan and Carpathian breeds meet international requirements.

By applying the methods of classical morphometry (Alpatov's method) and geometric morphometry (Tofilski's method), the breed affiliation of the three bred breeds was determined.

It was established that the breed purity of the bred breeds ranged from 53.5% to 97.7%. To determine the level of reproductive suitability of bees, the following criteria were developed: if a queen's breed conformity is below 84%, she is used for breeding within the apiary; if it ranges from 85 to 89%, she is used for further selection; at 90–94%, as a line founder; and at a breed conformity of 95 to 100%, she is used for queen reproduction.

A long-term program for organizing and conducting selection and pedigree work was developed. A scheme for organizing the management of the selection process in beekeeping was developed.

The need was established to create a consortium consisting of a scientific institution, a breeding center, and a beekeepers' society, which should include pedigree farms (24) by breed and natural-climatic zone, reproduction farms (18–20) with mating stations, and instrumental insemination laboratories (12–24).

A scheme for conducting selection work and creating new lines for further selection was developed. Twenty-five founder lines were identified, of which 12 are Carniolan queens and 13 are Carpathian. From them, 35 daughter queens were obtained, 16 of which were assigned to maternal lines.

Organizing the management of beekeeping farms according to the proposed scheme will accelerate the growth in the number of apiaries and bee colonies and the development of beekeeping, which will eliminate dependence on the import of bee packages from foreign countries and increase the export potential of beekeeping.

A breed zoning plan for honey bees was developed and recommended, taking into account their acclimatization to the conditions of specific zones. It was established that the Carniolan breed is bred in 6 natural-climatic zones, the Carpathian in four, and the Central Russian breed in two.

A recommendation was developed for the conservation and breeding of aboriginal bees in their locations.

For selection and pedigree work, 14 selection groups were created, to be subsequently increased to 28. Of the 14 groups, 7 were created for the Carniolan breed, 5 for the Carpathian breed, and one each for the Central Russian and aboriginal bee populations.

It should be noted that the largest number of bee colonies is located in the territory of the Eastern region and accounts for 56.2% of the total, with the southern region in second place at 25.7% and the south-eastern region in third place at 13.4%. It was established that the share of the Carniolan breed in the beekeeping system is 61.1%, the Carpathian breed 25%, and the remaining breeds, hybrids, and aboriginal bees 13.9%.

It was established that using bee colonies in pollination increases the yield of fodder crops by 15–30%, oil crops by 20%, and the yield of oilseeds by 15%.

Four locations of aboriginal bees were identified: Aksu-Zhabagly, the Karakonyz gorge, Ugam, and Balambay. A recommendation was developed for their conservation and further use as a special gene pool of Kazakhstan's honey bees.

When studying 839 bee samples using nine microsatellite markers, it was established that the average level of polymorphism was 95.88% and the lowest was 44.4%. Molecular-genetic certification of the gene pool of Kazakhstani bee populations was carried out.

A passport (certificate) form was compiled, indicating the location where the bee colony was raised and genetic data on 9 loci. An information bulletin on the molecular-genetic certification of the gene pool of Kazakhstani bee populations was developed.

When constructing a phylogenetic tree of bees and performing cluster analysis, it was established that bees from the Karakonyz gorge differed from representatives of the breeds A.m. carnica and A.m. caucasica. In this regard, research must be continued to thoroughly study their characteristics across all genetic and paratypic indicators and their genetic potential for further testing as an independent eastern ecotype of the Kazakhstani honey bee population.

A database of breeds bred in the Republic of Kazakhstan was created, and an independent ApisLab program for beekeeping was developed for determining breed affiliation based on wing morphometric data and the economically useful traits of bees. Using this program: a database is created; breed affiliation is determined by the morphometry method; and scientists and beekeepers are provided with complete records, productivity data, and the data needed for conducting selection and pedigree work, numbering queen bees, and so on.

The ApisLab portable subprogram for determining the breed of bees and ApisLab Mobile were created; using personal devices, complete information about apiaries and bee colonies can be obtained. For this, a QR code is installed at each apiary. Therefore, beekeepers who use the QR code will have free time to attend to other matters and to the capacities of the farm.

A methodological guide on creating an information technology for determining the breed affiliation of bees was developed and published. Based on the research results, 35 articles were published, including 6 articles in international peer-reviewed journals with a non-zero impact factor indexed in Scopus (Q1, Q2, Q3), 17 articles in domestic journals recommended by the CQAES of the MES RK, 6 in domestic journals, 3 articles in journals indexed in the RSCI (RINTs), 2 articles in publications of CIS countries, and 1 article in scientific publications of countries outside the CIS. One article was accepted by an international peer-reviewed journal with a non-zero impact factor indexed in Scopus (Q3). Twelve recommendations, 1 monograph, and 1 study guide were developed and published. One patent and one author's certificate were obtained.
