Popis: |
Vander Meer et al. investigate the mechanisms of male involvement in reproductive development in fire ant newly mated queens. The authors find that males produce tyramide compounds that, when transferred to females during mating, are converted to bioactive molecules that trigger wing loss, ovary development, and queen pheromone production. |
