In subject area:Agricultural and Biological Sciences The foraging workforce of a typical honey bee colony is comprised of thousands of workers that can specialize their foraging effort along two main axes: the resource axis and the exploration-exploitation axis. ...
Current evidence demonstrates that a sixth major extinction of biological diversity event is underway.1. The Earth is losing between one and ten percent of biodiversity per decade2, mostly due to habitat loss, pest invasion, pollution, over-harvesting and disease3. Certain natural ecosystem services...

Even though these results permit us to pinpoint a cell biological target for JH in an important caste differentiation process, we cannot yet establish whether JH acts directly on the affinity of actin to spectrin, or whether this is due to a transcriptional effect on factors that mediate the ...
