Worker-like behavioral and physiological phenotype in queens with removed wings in a ponerine ant.

The Journal of experimental biology - 15 Sept 2022

Pyenson Benjamin, Albin-Brooks Christopher, Burhyte Corinne, Liebig Jürgen

Abstract excerpt

Many highly eusocial insects are characterized by morphological differences between females, which are especially pronounced in ants. How these differences associate with particular behavioral and physiological phenotypes can illuminate early ant evolution. In ants, the morphological queen usually possesses a larger thorax with wings compared with a wingless worker. While queens specialize in reproduction,...
