    The influence of geographical area on morphometric parameters of honey bee in Serbia
    (FACULTY OF AGRICULTURE University of Banja Luka, 2023-05-24) Ignjatovic, Aleksandar; Matovic, Kazimir; Jevtić, Goran; Nedić, Nebojša
    During the evolutionary development of bees, in different parts of the world, under the influence of various environmental factors, different races with specific biometric characteristics appeared. In this study, morphological characteristics were measured on worker bee samples collected from seven different locations covering the territory of Republic Serbia. Three samples were taken from the territory of AP Vojvodina, namely from the Southern Banat district (Vršac; I), South Bačka district (Bač; II) and West Bačka district (Crvenka; III). From the central Serbia worker bees were originated fro different sites namely Rasina district (Aleksandrovac; IV), Zlatibor district (Lučani; V), Pešter (Sjenica; VI) and Bor district (Negotin; VII). The measurement included a total of 14 parameters, 11 of which were the angles on the forewing, while the other analyzed parameters were the length and width of the forewing and the cubital index. The results showed that there is a high statistically significant difference between the localities in the examined characteristics. From a total of 11 angles analyzed, statistical significance (p<0.01) of average values between localities was determined for the following angles: A4, J16, K19, L13, N23, G18 and O26. The analysis of the results of the length of the front wings and the cubital index showed a significant difference between the groups of bees.
