Social Context and Reproductive Potential Affect Worker Reproductive Decisions in a Eusocial Insect
Context-dependent decision-making conditions individual plasticity and is an integrant part of alternative reproductive strategies. In eusocial Hymenoptera (ants, bees and wasps), the discovery of worker reproductive parasitism recently challenged the view of workers as a homogeneous collective enti...
