Open AccessUncertainty in the mating strategy of honeybees causes bias and unreliability in the estimates of genetic parameters
Breeding queens may be mated with drones that are produced by a single drone-producing queen (DPQ), or a group of sister-DPQs, but often only the dam of the DPQ(s) is reported in the pedigree. Furthermore, dat...

Open AccessWilson loop duality and OPE for super form factors of half-BPS operators
We propose a dual Wilson loop description for the MHV super form factors of half-BPS operators in planar N

Open AccessGenetic parameters, trends, and inbreeding in a honeybee breeding program for royal jelly production and behavioral traits
An economically sustainable production of royal jelly (RJ) requires the use of genetics specifically improved for this very demanding trait. The French Royal Jelly Association has developed since 2010 a select...

Open AccessGenetic diversity and population genetic structure analysis of Apis mellifera subspecies in Algeria and Europe based on complementary sex determiner (CSD) gene
In honeybees, the mechanism of sex determination depends on genetic variation at the complementary sex determiner (CSD) locus, which has a large allelic diversity. In this study, we examined the population geneti...

Open AccessA simulation study of a honeybee breeding scheme accounting for polyandry, direct and maternal effects on colony performance
Efficient breeding programs are difficult to implement in honeybees due to their biological specificities (polyandry and haplo-diploidy) and complexity of the traits of interest, with performances being measur...

Open AccessFishnet four-point integrals: integrable representations and thermodynamic limits
We consider four-point integrals arising in the planar limit of the conformal “fishnet” theory in four dimensions. They define a two-parameter family of higher-loop Feynman integrals, which extend the series o...

Chemical detection triggers honey bee defense against a destructive parasitic threat
Invasive species events related to globalization are increasing, resulting in parasitic outbreaks. Understanding of host defense mechanisms is needed to predict and mitigate against the consequences of parasit...

Open AccessThree-point functions at strong coupling in the BMN limit
We consider structure constants of single-trace operators at strong coupling in planar N\( \mathcal{N} \) = 4 SYM theory using the hexagon formalism. We concentrate on heavy-heavy- light correlators where the hea...

Open AccessHexagons and correlators in the fishnet theory
We investigate the hexagon formalism in the planar 4d conformal fishnet theory. This theory arises from N ...

Open AccessABJM flux-tube and scattering amplitudes
There is a number of indications that scattering amplitudes in the Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena theory might have a dual description in terms of a holonomy of a supergauge connection on a null polygonal ...

Open AccessAsymptotic four point functions
We initiate the study of four-point functions of large BPS operators at any value of the coupling. We do it by casting it as a sum over exchange of superconformal primaries and computing the structure constant...

Open AccessWhole-genome resequencing of honeybee drones to detect genomic selection in a population managed for royal jelly
Four main evolutionary lineages of A. mellifera have been described including eastern Europe (C) and western and northern Europe (M). Many apiculturists prefer bees from the C lineage due to their docility and hi...

Open AccessAdjoint BFKL at finite coupling: a short-cut from the collinear limit
In the high energy Regge limit, the six gluons scattering amplitude is controlled by the adjoint BFKL eigenvalue and impact factor. In this paper we determine these two building blocks at any value of the ’t H...
