Greetings! I assume there's a commonly used equivalent term for this in English, but haven't succeeded in finding it via the literature at my disposal. Any help would be appreciated.
"Медоносные пчелы в естественном состоянии склонны устраивать гнезда сферической формы.
При этом отдельные участки с засевом на сотах могут иметь круглую форму, а не квадратную или прямоугольную."
Thanks in advance!

brood on honeycombs
A honeycomb is a mass of hexagonal prismatic wax cells built by honey bees in their nests to contain their larvae and stores of honey and pollen.

ЗАСЕВ, яйца, отложенные пчелиной маткой или пчёлами-трутовками в ячейки сота. Может быть пчелиным — оплодотворённые яйца в пчелиных ячейках и трутневым — неоплодотворённые яйца в трутневых или пчелиных ячейках. При благоприятных условиях зимовки, когда в семьях достаточно мёда, перги, пчёл и имеется здоровая матка, засев появляется в январе—феврале, задолго до весеннего облёта пчёл. Ранней весной засев занимает незначительную площадь сота.

Brood
In entomology, the term brood is used to refer to the embryo or egg, the larva and the pupa stages in the life of holometabolous insects. The brood of honey bees develops within a bee hive.

The brood comb is the beeswax structure of cells where the queen bee lays eggs. It is the part of the beehive where a new brood is raised by the colony. During the summer a good queen may lay 1500-2000 eggs per day, which results in 1500-2000 bees hatching after the three-week development period.
The brood comb is usually found in the lower part of the beehive, while the honeycomb may surround the brood area and is found exclusively in the honey supers. When a queen does not have enough brood comb to lay eggs, usually due to congestion from pollen or honey,[citation needed] the bee colony may be more prone to swarm.

comb inoculation / inoculated combs
I don't know beans about beekeeping, but look it up. Seems like this might be the term. (Watch out for matches having to do with vaccinating roosters!)

Thanks Rachel, but this isn't it. I'll try to provide more context next time (a translator's best friend:) |

building up or growing honeycombs
It is obvious that honeycombs do present, at peculiar stages during their growth progression, the signature or pattern of ellipses (Figure 1). This is a well–known and widely accepted fact, since the normal sketch of the comb does possess an ellipsoidal form that is typically described by all of the authors involved in the study ... http://www.jnsci.org/files/html/2016/e173.htm
