Bumble bee queens activate dopamine production and gene expression in nutritional signaling pathways in the brain
Abstract To explore the neuroendocrine mechanisms underlying caste-specific behavior and its evolution from primitive to advanced eusocial bees, the monoamine levels and expression of genes involved in monoamine production and signaling in the brain were compared between the castes of Bombus ignitus...
