Long live the queen, the king and the commoner? Transcript expression differences between old and young in the termite Cryptotermes secundus
Social insects provide promising new avenues for aging research. Within a colony, individuals that share the same genetic background can differ in lifespan by up to two orders of magnitude. Reproducing queens (and in termites also kings) can live for more than 20 years, extraordinary lifespans for i...
