Performance of African Honey Bee under desert conditions

Apis mellifera jemenitica considered one of the most honey bee which were widely used in desert condition comparing with the other honeybee races. African hybrid honeybees have not been completely studied under desert conditions. So the current study has been designed to evaluate Apis mellifera jemenitica and Apis mellifera (carnica- lamarckii) hybrid under desert conditions inside and outside the tent.
