The <i>Doublesex</i> sex determination pathway regulates reproductive division of labor in honey bees

2018-05-04

Abstract excerpt

Eusociality, the ultimate level of social organization, requires reproductive division of labor, and a sophisticated system of communication to maintain societal homeostasis. Reproductive division of labor is maintained by physiological differences between reproductive and sterile castes, typically dictated by pheromonal queen fertility signals that suppress worker reproduction. Intriguingly, reproduction and pher...
