(Submitter supplied) We investigated environmental determinants of caste differences in paper wasps, specifically the effects of differential nutrition. We found that nutritional restriction only partially biased wasp gene expression patterns toward being worker caste-like, which highlights the complex and multifactorial nature of environmental effects on the gene expression patterns underlying plastic phenotypes

(Submitter supplied) Mating is a complex process, which is frequently associated with behavioural and physiological changes. However, understanding of the genetic underpinnings of these changes is limited. Honey bees are both a model system in behavioural genomics, and the dominant managed pollinator of human crops; consequently understanding the mating process has both pure and applied value. We used next-generation transcriptomics to probe changes in gene expression in the brains of honey bee queens, as they transition from virgin to mated reproductive status. more...

(Submitter supplied) Investigating essential physiological processes in diapausing mites by analyzing genome wide gene expression changes using custom-built microarray. We investigated the molecular biology of facultative reproductive diapause in the chelicerate Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae) by analyzing genome-wide gene expression differences in diapausing and non diapausing T. urticae, using an Agilent custom-built two color gene expression microarray. more...

(Submitter supplied) Our two main aims were 1) to isolate age-related changes in gene expression in queens of the eusocial bumble bee, Bombus terrestris; and 2) to determine whether experimentally increasing the costs of reproduction (by removing eggs) caused changes in age-related gene expression in these queens. To address these aims we extracted RNA from three key tissues (brain, fat body and ovary) from queens at two time points (10% and 60% mortality phases). more...

(Submitter supplied) We studied behavioral, brain transcriptomic and epigenetic responses of honey bees to social challenge. Bees were exposed to two intruders at different intervals. The initial exposure caused two behavioral effects at the individual level: an increase in the intensity of aggression toward a second intruder at 30 and 60 minutes, and an increased probability of responding aggressively toward a second intruder that persisted for two hours. more...

(Submitter supplied) E.O. Wilson proposed in Sociobiology that similarities between human and animal societies reflect common mechanistic and evolutionary roots. When introduced in 1975 this controversial hypothesis was beyond science’s ability to test and remains unproven. We used genomic analyses to determine whether superficial behavioral similarities in humans and the highly social honey bee reflect common molecular mechanisms. more...

(Submitter supplied) Here we reveal evidence of a shared genetic toolkit across the full spectrum of social complexity found in Vespid wasps, from simple group living where castes remain plastic throughout life, to complex superorganismal societies comprised of mutually dependent insects with irreversible castes determined during development. We generated brain transcriptomic data for castes in nine representative species; using a machine learning approach we identified thousands of shared orthologs which consistently describe castes (queens and workers), from species with the simplest (Mischocyttarus paper wasps) to the most complex (e.g. more...
