Antagonistic pleiotropy and the evolution of extraordinary lifespans in eusocial organisms
Queens of eusocial species live extraordinarily long compared to their workers. So far, it has been argued that these lifespan divergences are readily explained by the classical evolutionary theory of ageing. As workers predominantly perform risky tasks, such as foraging and nest defense, and queens...
