[QUOTE="tristan, post: 12944, member: 30"] not sure which post you refer to here. with swarming your never going to change all the genetics, its far to deeply emended. we only change a small amount to reduce swarming not remove swarming. it doesn't take much to bring that back. the other thing to keep in mind is we are not always breeding out traits from the genes but rather replacing the genes by replacing the bee stock. sometimes thats mass scale eg varroa. also don't forget nz carnies which where all Italian based.
