Abstract
In order to create, through selection, bee species with high resistance, were done studies about natural resistance of the bee strain Apis mellifera Carpatica from R. of Moldova to principal specifical bee diseases on basys of some international standardized tests.
The studies were done at the atested weeding apiaries for reproduction of genitorial material. Bee colonies were appreciated after the behaviorial characters related to morphoproductive characteristics of the strain. As a result, were selected bee lines with high resistance to specifical bee diseases.

Key words: Apis m.carpatica race, natural resistance, lines
