Abstract The Western honey bee (Apis mellifera) subspecies exhibit local adaptive traits that evolved in response to the different environments that characterize their native distribution ranges. An important trait is the cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC)

Abstract Pheromone communication is a key mechanism by which the reproductive division of labor is maintained within insect communities. Understanding how pheromones evolved to regulate social behavior requires knowledge of the molecular regulation o

ABSTRACT The study of the fecal microbiota is crucial for unraveling the pathways through which gut symbionts are acquired and transmitted. While stable gut microbial communities are essential for honey bee health, their modes of acquisition and tran

Foraging individuals optimize spatial movement to maximize resource use in heterogeneous environments. Colonies of Eciton burchellii, a neotropical species of army ant, forage as an army, consuming broad arrays of arthropod and social insect prey. Pr

IntroductionThe current state of anthropogenic climate change is particularly concerning for tropical insects, species predicted to be the most negatively affected. Researching climatic tolerance in social insects is challenging because adaptations e

The fidelity of vertical transmission is a critical factor in maintaining mutualistic associations with microorganisms. The obligate mutualism between termites and intestinal protist communities has been maintained for over 130 million years, suggest

Abstract Ants are crucial ecosystem engineers, and their ecological success is facilitated by a division of labour among sterile “workers”. In some ant lineages, workers have undergone further morphological differentiation, resulting in differenc

Abstract Background Strain-level diversity is widespread among bacterial species and can expand the functional potential of natural microbial communities. However, to what extent communities undergo consistent shifts in strain composition in response
