Microsatellite marker discovery in the stingless bee Uruçu-Amarela (Melipona rufiventris Group, Hymenoptera, Meliponini) for population genetic analysis.
The species Melipona rufiventris Lepeletier, 1836 is a Brazilian native stingless bee that is part of a species complex known as the 'rufiventris group', making it diffcult to distinguish between the different species. Populations in this group are facing a severe decline, leading to the risk of local extinction, and therefore, their conservation should be treated as a major concern.
