Most of the previous studies on beryllium abundances in metal-poor stars have taken different Galactic populations as a whole when investigating production and evolution Be. In this Letter, we report detection systematic differences [α/H]–A(Be) relationships between low- high-α which were identified by works. We remind that one should be more careful Be with sample comprising populations, because such mixed may lead to inaccurate Be–Fe/Be–O relationships.
