Means and significance levels (p value) obtained from statistical analysis of the effect of sources of variation on stress protein in nursery bees

As a result of the effect of the feeding group in nursery bees, stress protein averages from lowest to highest MSP: 12.24 ± 0.85, HS: 13.93 ± 0.85, SS: 15.85 ± 0.85, Control: 18,01 ± 0.85 and P= 0.001. Nutritional supplementation with MSP resulted in a significantly lower stress protein level in nursery bees compared to other groups. Feeding groups were defined by abbreviations (MSP: Mixed Spring Pollen, HS: Honey Syrup, SS: Sugar Syrup, Control: Control). a, b, c:The difference between the group means indicated with different letters within each feeding group is significant ( p<0.05).
