Colony size is linked to paternity frequency and paternity skew in yellowjacket wasps and hornets
BACKGROUND: The puzzle of the selective benefits of multiple mating and multiple paternity in social insects has been a major focus of research in evolutionary biology. We examine paternity in a clade of social insects, the vespine wasps (the yellowjackets and hornets), which contains species with h...
