The present study was designed to investigate the effect of Chlorella algae as a source of protein on the rate of queen bees laying eggs (egg, larva and pupa), pollen storage, colony population and feed consumption. This experiment on honey bees (Apis mellifera) was conducted based on a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 10 replications at the Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Resources, University of Tehran. Treatments were classified as follows: 1- Basal diet, 2- Basal diet containing 5% of Chlorella, 3- Basal diet containing 10% of Chlorella, and 4- Basal diet containing 20% of Chlorella. Results showed that different levels of Chlorella algae have significant effects on total brood rearing, feed consumption and colony population (p < 0.05). The present research findings suggest that levels of dietary Chlorella algae can improve the total brood and population of the colony.
