Modulation of social interactions by immune stimulation in honey bee, Apis mellifera, workers
BACKGROUND: Immune response pathways have been relatively well-conserved across animal species, with similar systems in both mammals and invertebrates. Interestingly, honey bees have substantially reduced numbers of genes associated with immune function compared with solitary insect species. However...
