Differential gene expression in queen-worker caste determination in bumble-bees.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Jun 2005

Pereboom Jeffrey J M, Jordan William C, Sumner Seirian, Hammond Robert L, Bourke Andrew F G

Abstract excerpt

Investigating how differential gene expression underlies caste determination in the social Hymenoptera is central to understanding how variation in gene expression underlies adaptive phenotypic diversity. We investigated for the first time the association between differential gene expression and queen-worker caste determination in the bumble-bee Bombus terrestris. Using suppression subtractive hybridization we...
