CASTE DEVELOPMENT IN HYMENOPTERA, A MOLECULAR VIEW FOR FARMING IMPROVEMENT OF STINGLESS BEES

Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems
Background: The evolution and genetic elements for the development of the caste is an enigma in Hymenoptera, as well as the total impact that the genetic elements given in the food of the larvae have on the development of bees.

Why is eusociality an almost exclusively terrestrial phenomenon?

, 2014
Eusociality has evolved multiple times across diverse terrestrial taxa, and eusocial species fundamentally shape many terrestrial ecosystems. However, eusocial species are far less common and have much less ecological impact, in aquatic than terrestrial ...

Eusocial reproduction selects for longevity

Abstract Animals such as bees, ants, wasps, termites, and naked mole-rats live in colonies in which a single queen is the only female reproductive, an arrangement known as eusociality. Eusocial animals are known for their remarkably long lifespans.
