Epigenetics is the study of changes in gene activity that can be transmitted through cell
divisions but cannot be explained by changes in the DNA sequence. Epigenetic …

Examining parent-of-origin effects on transcription and RNA methylation in mediating aggressive behavior in honey bees (Apis mellifera)
Conflict between genes inherited from the mother (matrigenes) and the father (patrigenes) is
predicted to arise during social interactions among offspring if these genes are not evenly …

The kin selection theory of genomic imprinting and modes of reproduction in the eusocial Hymenoptera
J da Silva - Biological Reviews, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Genomic imprinting is known from flowering plants and mammals but has not been
confirmed for the Hymenoptera even though the eusocial Hymenoptera are prime …

Beyond conflict: Kinship theory of intragenomic conflict predicts individual variation in altruistic behaviour
Behavioural variation is essential for animals to adapt to different social and environmental
conditions. The Kinship Theory of Intragenomic Conflict (KTIC) predicts that parent‐specific …

Intragenomic conflict underlies extreme phenotypic plasticity in queen-worker caste determination in honey bees (Apis mellifera)
Caste determination of honey bees (Apis mellifera) is a prime example of developmental
plasticity, where differences in larval diet will result in identical genotypes yielding either …

Molecular Mechanisms of Phenotypic Variation in Honey Bees (Apis mellifera)
S Bresnahan - 2024 - etda.libraries.psu.edu
Phenotypic variation is the raw material for natural selection. Elucidating the molecular
mechanisms underlying phenotypic variation is crucial for understanding how animals adapt …

Parent of origin DNA methylation as a potential mechanism for genomic imprinting in bees
Genomic imprinting is defined as parent-of-origin allele-specific expression. In order for
genes to be expressed in this manner an 'imprinting'mark must be present to distinguish the …
