Behavioral and genetic mechanisms of social evolution: insights from incipiently and facultatively social bees
Facultatively social species exhibit behavioral plasticity in response to changes in ecological
conditions and social environment, and thus provide a natural experiment to compare …

Convergent and complementary selection shaped gains and losses of eusociality in sweat bees
Sweat bees have repeatedly gained and lost eusociality, a transition from individual to group
reproduction. Here we generate chromosome-length genome assemblies for 17 species …

Social complexity, life-history and lineage influence the molecular basis of castes in vespid wasps
A key mechanistic hypothesis for the evolution of division of labour in social insects is that a
shared set of genes co-opted from a common solitary ancestral ground plan (a genetic …
