Changes in reproductive roles are associated with changes in gene expression in fire ant queens
... Fig. 3 Expression levels of genes related to Juvenile Hormone (JH) metabolism and response in virgin fire ant queens that are either still in pres- ence of their mother queen or have been orphaned for 6 or 24 h. Only genes with multiple clones on the microarray are shown. ...
The transcription factor Krüppel homolog 1 is linked to hormone mediated social organization in bees
... Thus, in bumble bees as in most insects, JH levels are associated with ovary activation and reproduction, while in honey bees and some ant species, juvenile hormone levels are not higher in reproductive queens or workers (for a recent review see [29]). Thus, this hormonal ...
Stress and Invasion: Factors influencing the escape behavior of native fence lizards in response to introduced fire ants
... Lizards from fire ant invaded areas are more likely to respond to fire ant attack than lizards from uninvaded sites. Lizards from both sites exhibit elevated levels of the stress hormone, corticosterone (CORT) following attack by fire ants. ...
Invasive ant management
... The active constituent is the chemical that mediates ant control (eg metabolic inhibitors, juvenile hormone analo- gues), and is supplied to the ants within a delivery matrix that the ant must ingest in order to receive a dose of the active constituent. ...
Group size effect on worker juvenile hormone titers and soldier differentiation in Formosan subterranean termite
... JH, a crucial hormone of insects, has been shown to regulate various types of morphological polymorphisms that are associated with ... of the inhibitory signal possibly powered either by accumulation of pheromone or by mechanical movement as desert ants, Cataglyphis fortis ...
The Challenge Hypothesis in an Insect: Juvenile Hormone Increases during Reproductive Conflict following Queen Loss in Polistes Wasps
... Reproductive conflicts affect labor and immune defense in the queenless ant Diacamma sp. “Nilgiri.” Evolution 62:123–134. First citation in article. Elekonich, MM, DJ Schulz, G. Bloch, and GE Robinson. 2001. Juvenile hormone levels in honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) foragers ...
