NEEDS AN INTRO
To avoid cross-breeding:
* get the ''A.m.mellifera'' queens from a queen breeder who has arranged isolated mating for queen production
* always change the freely paired queens after the first generation to purebred queens
* arrange a purebred mating station for your queen production
* remember that the original pure ''A. m. mellifera'' drones are still present in the second queen’s generation regardless of the mating combination
* artificial insemination can be used for pure mating, if an isolated mating area cannot be arranged
