We cooperate with the Faculty of Agriculture of the Mendel University in Brno in a project to study the variability of bee populations in the Czech Republic. To implement it, we collected samples of bees from various districts of the Czech Republic in the course of the late summer and autumn of 2023, in which we have habitats as part of the Rooftopbees project (www.vcelynastrechach.cz).
