A formal assessment of gene flow and selection in the fire ant Solenopsis invicta.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Apr 2000

Goodisman M A, Ross K G, Asmussen M A

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies of the introduced fire ant Solenopsis invicta suggest that introduced polygyne (with multiple queens per nest) populations are strongly influenced by male-mediated gene flow from neighboring monogyne (single queen per nest) populations and selection acting on a single locus, general protein-9 (Gp-9). This investigation formally tests this hypothesis and determines if these processes can account for...
