Worker Survival and Egg Production—But Not Transcriptional Activity—Respond to Queen Number in the Highly Polygynous, Invasive Ant Tapinoma magnum
In social animals, reproductive activity and ageing are influenced by group composition. In monogynous (single-queen) insect societies, queen presence affects worker fecundity and longevity, but less...
