Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Jul 2012
Dobata Shigeto, Tsuji Kazuki
Abstract excerpt
Colonies of eusocial Hymenoptera, such as ants, bees and wasps, have long been recognized as candidates for the study of genomic imprinting on the grounds of evolutionary conflicts that arise from close interactions among colony members and relatedness asymmetry owing to haplodiploidy. Although a...
