dc.description.abstractHoney is a food widely consumed worldwide and much appreciated for its nutritional and organoleptic properties as well as for its beneficial health effects. However, honey is also considered one of the foods most prone to be adulterated either by the admixing of honey with lower quality, by the addition of sugars, or by mislabeling of botanical and geographical origins, among other possible frauds.1 Therefore, typically, honey authentication has focused mainly on the development of techniques targeting these types of frauds. Recently, increased attention has been paid to honey’s entomological origin since it also relates with geographical origin whose label non-compliances are difficult to detect. Moreover, in the current context where native honeybees are increasingly threatened by introgression, due to the use of exotic queens, preservation of honeybee subspecies in their native ranges, to which they are better adapted, is perceived as of high importance. In this sense, valorisation of the honey produced by native subspecies has been suggested as a possible approach to generate higher income for beekeepers, contributing to the development of rural regions and of sustainable beekeeping based on conservation strategiespt_PT
