Alarm Pheromone Processing in the Ant Brain: An Evolutionary Perspective

Social insects exhibit sophisticated communication by means of pheromones, one example of which is the use of alarm pheromones to alert nestmates for colony defense. We review recent advances in the understanding of the processing of alarm pheromone information in the ant brain. We found that inform...
