To conservation the Burzyan population of Apis mellifera mellifera L. it is necessary to systematically evaluate its genetic parameters in order to prevent its hybridization with other subspecies. This paper present genetic parameters of bee colonies of Burzyan dark forest honeybee population on the basis of polymorphism analysis of locus COI-COII mtDNA and nuclear DNA microsatellite loci. As a result, we found that the parameters of the genetic diversity of studied honeybee colonies correspond to the average value obtained in previous studies. The studies of the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes identified two hybrid origin bee colonies in the protected area of the reserve “Altyn-Solok”.
