A unified model of Hymenopteran preadaptations that trigger the evolutionary transition to eusociality

The Hymenoptera are thought to have preadaptations responsible for the repeated evolution of eusociality in ants, bees, and wasps. Here, Quiñones and Pen model the evolution of primitively social insects and identify factors that synergistically promote the transition to eusociality.
