    Pollen preferences of honeybees was analyzed in the blooming period of GörükleBursa, Turkey. Pollen loads were collected from the hives that belong to Apis mellifera anatoliaca, local honeybee subspecies in the region. Pollen grains of 47 taxa were identified (including unidentified), of which 11 of them reached the percentages higher than 1 % and 0,18 % of the total could not have been identified. Dominant taxa are; Helianthus annuus L. (34.84 %), Trifolium pratense L. (15.96 %), Cruciferae (15.34 %), Paliurus spina-christi Mill. (6.79 %), Rosaceae (6.44 %), Papaver spp. (6.12 %), Compositae (3.12 %), Punica granatum L. (1.59 %), Melilotus spp. (1.28 %), Trifolium repens L. (1.06 %), Zea mays L. (1.02 %) and these are representing 93.56 % of the total.

    Spectrum of pollen collected by honeybees ın Bursa lowland area ın hıgh season
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2008) Bilişik, Aycan; Çakmak, Ibrahim; Saatcıoğlu, Gulsah; Bıçakcı, Adem; Malyer, Hulusi; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Fen Edebiyat Fakültesi/Biyoloji Bölümü.; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Mustafakemalpasa Meslek Yüksek Okulu.
    Pollen spectrum collected by honeybee foragers (Apis mellifera anatoliaca) was recorded during the main pollen flow in Bursa (N-W Anatolia) lowland region in order to prepare a calendar of honeybee used pollen loads, which will be useful for regional and itinerant beekeepers. Fifty one plant taxa were identified and eighteen of them had percentages higher than 1%. Dominant taxa were; Brassicaceae (13.00%), Papaver spp. (11.99%), Paliurus spina-christi (10.23%), Cistaceae (8.03%), Ranunculus spp. (7.29%) and Rosaceae (6.32%), while Echium spp. (4.34%), Trifolium repens (4.33%), Quercus spp. (4.33%), Salix spp. (4.29%), Plantago spp. (3.87%), Vicia spp. (3.48%), Trifolium pratense (3.15%), Asteraceae (2.35%), Helianthus annuus (2.15%) and Fabaceae (2.11%) were appeared with medium percentages. There is a strong reliance on some indigenous plant species for pollen foraging activity but a number of cultivars are also seen within the samples. The most diverse period for collecting various pollen types was June.
