Outline of Final Research Achievements

Following studies were carried out: (1) Taking genetic and reproductive peculiarities in bumblebees, the theory for predicting breeding values by BLUP was explored. (2) Efficiency of selective breeding in a partially isolated bee strain was theoretically evaluated in terms of the inbreeding coefficient and genetic gain by selection. (3) Genetic variation and geographical divergence in Hokkaido populations of a foreign species, Bombus terrestris, and a native species, B. hypocrite sapporoensis, were assessed by analyzing COI region of mtDNA. It was shown that genetic variation of B. terrestris is much smaller than B. h. sapporoensis, presumably because the population of former species has been passed through bottlenecks at several times during the domestication in Europe and invasion into Japan. (4) Wing morphology of B. h. sapporoensis, was investigated to evaluate the amount of geographical divergence.
