“Molecular identification of Amazonian stingless bees using polymerase chain reaction single-strand conformation polymorphism”, vol. 13, pp. 5507-5513, 2014.
In countries containing a mega diversity of wildlife, such as Brazil, identifying and characterizing biological diversity is a continuous process for the scientific community, even in face of technological and scientific advances. This activity demands initiatives for the taxonomic identification of highly diverse groups, such as stingless bees, including molecular analysis strategies. This type of bee is distributed in all of the Brazilian states, with the highest species diversity being found in the State of Amazônia.
