ORG XMIT: WASPO103 In this photo taken Wednesday, Aug. 5, 2009, bee researcher Beth Kahkonen holds a queen bee taken from one of the research hives at Washington State University in Pullman, Wash. The bee is marked with a number to identify it and it's genetic origin. The program tries to continually improve the quality of the queen bees in hives around the state in the hope that it will help them resist colony collapse, a problem in bee hives around the nation.
