Neutral and adaptive explanations for an association between caste-biased gene expression and rate of sequence evolution
The castes of social insects provide outstanding opportunities to address the causes and consequences of evolution of discrete phenotypes, i.e., polymorphisms. Here we focus on recently described patterns of a positive association between the degree of caste-specific gene expression and the rate of...
