For example, into Apini tribe from honey bees we have 9 species but among them, Apis mellifera has the most of the subspecies but dwarf honey bees have not any subspecies. Or in the Euglossini tribe, the genus Euglussa has the most species higher than 120 and other genus in this tribe have low species. What is the main reason for this difference? Whether a genus or species with highest numbers of species/subspecies has a specific genomic structure?
