Brain gene expression analyses in virgin and mated queens of fire ants reveal mating‐independent and socially regulated changes

Transcriptomes of dissected brains from virgin alate and dealate mated queens from polygyne fire ants (Solenopsis invicta) were analyzed and compared. Thirteen genes were upregulated in mated queen brain, and nine were downregulated. While many of the regulated genes were either uncharacterized or n...
