Context-dependent expression of the foraging gene in field colonies of ants: the interacting roles of age, environment and task
Task allocation among social insect workers is an ideal framework for studying the molecular mechanisms underlying behavioural plasticity because workers of similar genotype adopt different behavioural phenotypes. Elegant laboratory studies have pioneered this effort, but field studies involving the...
