genetic and environmental variation in stress resistance and its relation to
life expectancy in worker honey bees. The applicants should have molecular
research experience, be willing to travel, and be comfortable working with live
honey bees. The project is funded for 5 years, and salaries will depend on
qualifications.</SPAN></P>
