It is unclear why some species become successful invaders whilst others fail, and whether invasive success depends on pre-adaptations already present in the native range or on characters evolving de-novo after introduction. Ants are among the worst i

The emerging field of nutritional geometry (NG) provides powerful new approaches to test whether and how organisms prioritize specific nutritional blends when consuming chemically complex foods. NG approaches can thus help move beyond food-level esti

Convergent development of ecological, genetic, and morphological traits in native supercolonies of the red ant Myrmica rubra

Autor: Rasmus Stenbak Larsen, Jacobus J. Boomsma, Jes S. Pedersen, Sarah Carlsen, Dóra B. Huszár

Publikováno v: Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology

Ant supercolonies (large networks of interconnected nests) represent the most extreme form of multi-queen breeding (polygyny) and have been found across ant lineages, usually in specific long-term stable populations. Many studies on the genetic popul

Artificial selection on ant female caste ratio uncovers a link between female-biased sex ratios and infection by Wolbachia endosymbionts

Autor: Rohini Singh, Jes S. Pedersen, Anna M. Schmidt, Luigi Pontieri, Timothy A. Linksvayer

Publikováno v: Journal of evolutionary biology. 30(2)

Social insect sex and caste ratios are well-studied targets of evolutionary conflicts, but the heritable factors affecting these traits remain unknown. To elucidate these factors, we carried out a short-term artificial selection study on female caste
