Only 2 more days until our final conference! ๐ค
One thing we are really looking forward to is our keynote speaker @flemmingvej - a bee expert, a strong advocate of progressive and sustainable beekeeping and a key member of several international projects.
๐ฃ You are cordially invited to the BeeConSel final conference ๐. The event will take place on 7 December 2023, at the City Museum of Ljubljana ๐ธ๐ฎ. Registration is required. More info ๐https://t.co/oSfLi0VoN7 @KISinstitut@EEANorwayGrants@RegionalCoopMag @_SLU @bienesverden
๐บ The BeeConSel project and the September workshop in Osijek were on National Croatian Television (HRT) during the "Plodovi zemlje" show, reaching an impressive audience of 600,000 people across Croatia! ๐ญ๐ท๐ #EEANorwayGrants@RegionalCoopMag https://t.co/L12IJdHlYm
@radallo Dear Dr Dall'Olio, thanks for the interesting question! The authors will consider and discuss that issue with the BeeBook editors. The article is written in a similar manner and it makes sense to be part of that comprehensive collection. Best regards, BeeConSel team
๐ฃ Exciting News from the #BeeConSel Project! ๐ Our latest paper, "Standard methods for direct observation of honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) nuptial flights," is out! Read it here ๐ https://t.co/mRhve05FGO #EEANorwayGrants
BeeConSel was presented at the Slovenian Day at #Apimondia2023. The event was attended by more than 100 guests including the Ambassador @SLOinARG, the president & vice president of @apimondia and many other distinguished guests. We are very grateful for such an opportunity! ๐
BeeConSel is poised to contribute significantly to the upskilling of young beekeepers by recognizing them as one of the target groups and involving them in the project.

With the testing of 3 locations and 2 methods for controlled mating, the Macedonian ๐ฒ๐ฐ team has successfully completed the field research for 2023. Next step: molecular analysis of samples of mated queens, worker bees, and wings of drone-producing queens. ๐๐ฌ #EEANorwayGrants
Slovenia was hit by heavy flooding this weekend ๐ luckily the bees at the @KISinstitut didn't have to learn to swim... the electronics, on the other hand...
#EEANorwayGrants#BeeConSel
๐News from CALIS๐ญ๐ท Queens were well mated and collected for molecular analysis. After the queens had been collected, the mating boxes were to be emptied the following day. However, in the evening a huge storm came up and caused a big mess ๐
#EEANorwayGrants#BeeConSel
(2/2) With this approach, we want to significantly increase the possibility of queens being mated with drones from the desired drone-producing colonies ๐ช #EEANorwayGrants
(1/2) Drone breeding by Calis ๐ญ๐ท In the final year of our project, they again used 100 drone-producing colonies in which they bred 6 frames with drones during the season. #EEANorwayGrants
We have a busy day ahead of us ๐ We are very much looking forward to the feedback from our two advisory group members, prof Alice Pinto and Dr @PeterKozmus, who joined us in Oslo. #EEANorwayGrants
