Color code and Abbreviations

Queen from one strain, but mated by drones from another strain .
Her population and daughters (and drones of them) are F₁ crossed.

Queen and Drones have the same ancestors: combination to increase or stabilize some characteristics

Queen and Drones are Aunt-Nephews : that would correspond by us to a Sister-Brothers crossing.

Queen and Drones result of a cross between two different lines : interesting to increase their resistance and qualities.
