The size of comb cells is a key factor influencing the body size of honey bee workers. Comb cells and the body size of Chinese honey bee workers are smaller than those of Italian honey bee workers. To increase the size of Chinese honey bee workers, this study used newly built combs from Chinese honey bee colonies (control group) and Italian honey bee colonies (treatment group).

Substituting peat moss with compost derived from organic waste in plant nurseries presents a promising solution for reducing environmental impact, improving waste management, and enhancing soil health while promoting sustainable agricultural practices. However, selecting the appropriate proportions of both materials is crucial for each plant species. This study investigates the effects of different ratios of compost and peat mixtures on the growth and development of pepper seedlings.
