Antenna of foragers
Apis mellifera ligustica
capped frames of worker brood were shook vigorously to get rid of bees, and then kept in a humid incubator at 34 degree; every morning adult bees emerged from their cells were marked on the thorax with paint and returned to the hive. 21-day-old foragers were captured at the entrance of the source colony using soft forceps when marked bees of twenty-fist day have pollen loads on their hind legs.
