Marking individual ants for behavioral sampling in a laboratory colony.

Cold Spring Harbor protocols - 1 Jul 2009

Holbrook C Tate

Abstract excerpt

Ant societies are tractable and malleable, two features that make them ideal models for probing the organization of complex biological systems. The ability to identify specific individuals while they function as part of a colony permits an integrative analysis of social complexity, including self...
