Strong positive allometry of bite force in leaf-cutter ants increases the range of cuttable plant tissues

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
Atta leaf-cutter ants are the prime herbivore in the Neotropics: differently-sized foragers harvest plant material to grow a fungus as crop. Efficient foraging involves complex interactions between worker-size, task-preferences and plant-fungus ...
