We intended to study the genetic basis of vitality of the different races. We have chosen five regions representing most of this genetic diversity to carry out the survey on honey bee losses where we used a single questionnaire combining the COLOSS questionnaire and the questionnaire prepared to study the colony losses in Turkey. These five regions are also known to have both migratory and local colonies. We surveyed both migratory and local beekeepers to investigate the effects of migratory beekeeping on honey bee loses. The surveys are carried out both by face to face interview or by distributing the questionnaire to the beekeepers and collecting them later. Although the survey is continuing, our preliminary results for the three regions were as follows: 1. In the Mugla province which is one of the most important centres for beekeeping especially for pine honey production, proportion of the colony losses was 0.175±0.035 when a sample of 41 beekeepers interviewed. 2. In the Hatay province where Apis mellifera syriaca exists locally, the proportion of colony losses was 0.196±0.032 in a sample of 32 beekeepers 3. In the Trace region, which includes the Canakkale, Tekirdag, Edirne, Kirklareli and Istanbul provinces colony losses averaged 0.193±0.025 in a sample of 59 ...
