Wasp gene expression supports an evolutionary link between maternal behavior and eusociality
Abstract
The presence of workers that forgo reproduction and care for their siblings is a defining feature of eusociality and a major challenge for evolutionary theory. It has been proposed that worker behavior evolved from maternal care behavior. We explored this idea by studying gene expression in the prim …
