Carbon dioxide levels and ventilation in <italic toggle="yes">Acromyrmex</italic> nests: significance and evolution of architectural innovations in leaf-cutting ants
Leaf-cutting ant colonies largely differ in size, yet all consume O2 and produce CO2 in large amounts because of their underground fungus gardens. We have shown that in the Acromyrmex genus, three basic nest morphologies occur, and investigated the effects of architectural innovations on nest ventil...
