Reproductive parasitism by worker honey bees suppressed by queens through regulation of worker mandibular secretions
Social cohesion in social insect colonies can be achieved through the use of chemical signals whose production is caste-specific and regulated by social contexts. In honey bees, queen mandibular gland pheromones (QMP) maintain reproductive dominance by inhibiting ovary activation and production of q...
