VITELLOGENIN-LIKE A-ASSOCIATED SHIFTS IN SOCIAL CUE RESPONSIVENESS REGULATE BEHAVIORAL TASK SPECIALIZATION IN AN ANT.

Vitellogenin-like A-associated shifts in social cue responsiveness regulate behavioral task specialization in an ant.

Division of labor and task specialization explain the success of human and insect societies.Social insect colonies are characterized by division of labor, with Obsolete Parts With Alternative Or Secondhand Available workers specializing in brood care early and foraging later in life.Theory posits that this task switching requires shifts in responsi
