"What's wrong with all the queen bees?"

Ling Zikai asked subconsciously.

Li Yan glanced at Ling Zikai dissatisfied, and when he saw that everyone's faces were also a little puzzled, obviously he didn't understand what he meant, and couldn't help but say a little angrily: "Okay, I spent a long time talking about it just now, and I was playing the piano to the cow!"

"What is playing the piano to the cow, you make it clear, everyone is not clear!"

Liu Yan was afraid that her boyfriend's words would offend everyone, so she hurriedly objected first.

Li Yan's words are right!

Since you have asked him for some knowledge about bees, you must listen to what he just said and write it down, so as not to waste a piece of his tongue, otherwise you will not be playing the harp to the cow!"

It was naturally Professor Lin Xing'an who spoke, he glanced at everyone dissatisfied, and said in an old-fashioned manner:

"Just now, didn't Li Yan already say when he told it, there is generally only one queen bee in a bee colony's nest, and when two queen bees appear, they will fight each other until there is only one left.

You say that so many queen bees are not only in the same nest at the same time, but also can live in harmony, what is the phenomenon?

didn't even listen to this most basic common sense, is Li Yan playing the piano to the cow!"

After listening to Professor Lin's explanation, everyone realized that they were a little ashamed.

Li Yan made Lin Xing'an feel a little embarrassed when he said this, and said to everyone: "I'm sorry, this analogy I just made is a little inappropriate——"

Lin Xing'an interrupted him and said, "There is something to apologize for! If you want to be a student, you must be a student! If I hear such a question from the students below after class, I will be immediately thrown out of the classroom." ”

After a pause, he asked with some suspicion, "Li Yan, are you sure that these bees are queen bees?"

Li Yan hesitated a little when he heard this.

For Lin Xing'an, a legendary figure of Lin University, he naturally understands it.

Although he is a little crazy in dealing with people, he is also a recognized authority in the industry in terms of academics.

In other words, if you don't have outstanding achievements, where can you be 'crazy'?

After Li Yan carefully identified the bees in the hive again, he nodded to Lin Xing'an and said affirmatively: "Judging from the external characteristics, I dare to conclude that these are queen bees. Why don't you confirm it, Professor Lin?"

Lin Xing'an waved his hand and said, "I have a specialization in the art industry, and entomology is not my strength." I have also heard the name of Li Yan, who is a master's student in the Department of Entomology of Forestry University, and is better at entomology than I want to study. ”

Hearing Lin Xing'an's praise, not only Li Yan was happy, but even Liu Yan's face showed excitement.

"Based on your research, how can you explain this phenomenon?"

But Lin Xingan didn't wait for the excitement on Li Yan's face to dissipate, and immediately threw out a difficult question.

Fortunately, Li Yan did have some research in entomology, especially for bees, and after pondering for a while, he said slowly:

"These are all from one of the world's four most famous bee species, the Hung Yen black bee.

It is also the only bee species in the world that is distributed in the Xing'an Mountains.

They are fierce and difficult to domesticate, and live in a wild state for a long time in a closed and superior natural environment.

From the point of view of genetics, it has stable heritability, and has its special morphological indicators and biological characteristics, which is incomparable with other bee species, and it is also a rare and extremely valuable bee gene pool in China and even the world.

One of the distinctive features that distinguish this bee from other bee species is that:

The queen bee of the Hung Yen black bee is a brown ring pattern on the dorsal plate of the abdomen with 1~5 segments. On the midline of the dorsal plate of the abdomen, there are inverted triangular dark spots from the first abdominal segment to the terminal segment. The hairs are yellowish-brown.

Worker wasps have smaller maculas on both sides of the dorsal plates of the 2nd and 3rd abdominal segments, and the villi on the dorsal plates of the thorax are yellowish-brown. The two types of worker bees have a wide yellowish-brown hairy band on each abdominal segment, which is slightly narrower than that of Caucasian wasps, and the lower edges of the ventral segments of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd abdominal segments are yellow, and the 4th, 5th, and 6th segments are all black.

The dronet has brown shiny edges on the posterior edge of the dorsal plate of the abdomen 1~5 segments, the last segment is black, the ventral hairs are very long, and the villi on the dorsal plate of the thorax are yellowish-brown.

The main characteristics of these bees in front of you are consistent with the main characteristics of the Hung Yen black bee, the only difference is that the main color of these bees is black, and the body size is larger, one-third larger than the other black queens.

According to my inference, they may have been a colony of black bees from the primeval forest, never in contact with other bee species in the outside world, and therefore still have the oldest, most primitive, and purest genetics in their bodies. ”

Ling Zikai secretly admired in his heart when he heard this, just by these dozen bees, he could roughly judge their origin, this Li Yan looked unattractive, and he was a little arrogant, but he pretended to be really talented and learned.

Du Juan, who had been silent, suddenly retorted: "You said so much, but you haven't explained the question Professor Lin just asked!"

Li Yan said with some shame: "As for why they are all queen bees, I don't dare to judge in a short time." ”

"It's not that I don't dare, but I can't find the reason at all!"

Ling Zikai saw why Du Juan, who was usually gentle and enthusiastic to others, suddenly made things difficult for guests today, and felt a little abnormal, so he glanced at her in puzzlement.

At this time, the cuckoo also cast a meaningful glance at him, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.

"I know why this happens!"

Zhang Hao on the side said loudly.

"Oh!"

Everyone set their eyes on Zhang Hao.

Seeing that he had attracted everyone's attention all of a sudden, Zhang Hao was a little proud, and said with a grin: "This problem is not simple! In the past, everyone saw some low-level bees, and there could only be one queen bee in the worker bee colony, which is not strange!"

Now, there is only one reason why there is a group of queen bees, and that is that these cultivated worker bees have evolved into 'queen bees', and the queen bees who led them have also evolved into 'queen bees'!"

Everyone was stunned at first when they heard this, and then they all laughed and bent down holding their stomachs.

Zhang Nan laughed angrily and anxiously, pointed at Zhang Hao and said: "Brother, you stay at home all day long because you read fantasy novels and go crazy!

It took a while for everyone to stop laughing.

The atmosphere in the stadium was much lighter.

Li Yan said with some unconvincing: "To find out the cause of an abnormal phenomenon, we must understand the ins and outs of the incident, and after a lot of research and reasoning, we can draw conclusions, rather than making arbitrary judgments just by looking at them a few times." Just give me time, and I'm sure I'll be able to explain it clearly. ”

Lin Xing'an nodded in agreement on the side: "Xiao Li's words are good! Doing scientific research must be rigorous, and the conclusions drawn must be logical and can withstand the refutation of others. ”

Ling Zikai listened to Li Yan's words, but his heart moved, as if he had guessed Du Juan's scheming, so he began to ponder, and subconsciously twisted his left earlobe with the fingers of his left hand.

Seeing Ling Zikai's iconic action, Du Juan knew that he had some enlightenment, and showed a knowing smile.

However, Zhang Hao next to him saw Ling Zikai's appearance, and a suspicion rose in his heart.

has been a classmate for four years, and of course he knows that as long as this guy shows his habit of twisting his fingers and earlobes, he means that he has something in his heart.

And it is clear that if the right hand twists the right ear, it is thinking about a good thing, and if the left hand twists the left ear plate, it will be broken, and someone must be unlucky.

Zhang Hao glanced at the people present, thinking in his heart who would be tricked!
