In-hive patterns of temporal polyethism in strains of honey bees (Apis mellifera) with distinct genetic backgrounds
Honey bee workers exhibit an age-based division of labor (temporal polyethism, DOL). Younger bees transition through sets of tasks within the nest; older bees forage outside. Components of temporal polyethism remain unrevealed. Here, we investigate the timing and pattern of pre-foraging behavior in...
