On the Biological Diversity of Ant Alkaloids
Annual Review of Entomology, 2022Ants have outstanding capacity to mediate inter- and intraspecific interactions by producing structurally diverse metabolites from numerous secretory glands. Since Murray Blum's pioneering studies dating from the 1950s, there has been a growing interest in arthropod toxins as natural products. Over a dozen different alkaloid classes have been reported

The ontogeny of selection on genetic diversity in harvester ants
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2022Selection may favour traits throughout an individual's lifetime or at a particular life stage. In many species of social insects, established colonies that are more genetically diverse outperform less diverse colonies with respect to a variety of traits that contribute to fitness, but whether selection favours high diversity in ...

Diversity control in ant colony optimization
Artificial Life and Robotics, 2004Optimization inspired by cooperative food retrieval in ants has been unexpectedly successful and has been known as ant colony optimization (ACO) in recent years. One of the most important factors to improve the performance of the ACO algorithms is the complex trade-off between intensification and diversification.

Enigmatic Biodiversity Correlations: Ant Diversity Responds to Diverse Resources
Science, 2004A pattern noted in ecology is that diversity at one level begets diversity at other levels. In the case of consumers competing for similar resources, the diversity of those resources is thought to provide some degree of niche diversification in which a diverse set of consumer species can coexist.

Sensitive Ants: Inducing Diversity in the Colony
2009A metaheuristic called Sensitive Ant Model (SAM) for solving combinatorial optimization problems is developed. The proposed model is based on the Ant Colony System (ACS) algorithm in which agents cooperate indirectly using pheromone trails. SAM improves and extends the ACS approach by endowing each agent of the model with properties that induce ...

Periodicity and diversity in ant mating flights
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 19921. Flight hours and seasons are alike within species, but differ among species and among genera. 2. Laboratory studies indicate internal circadian control of the phase relation to the light-dark cycle, with field evidence for modification by temperature (or other environmental variables). 3.
