متن کاملDi:fferential Viability of Eggs Laid by Queens in Polygyne Colonies of the Fire Ant, Solenopsis Invicta
The viability of eggs laid by individual functional queens from polygyne colonies of the fire ant, Solenopsi:; intricra Buren, was examined by staining for chromatin. In isolation units held in the laboratory inseminated queens laid nearly 100% viable eggs, compared to < 10% for uninseminated queens, Experiments in which the quantity of brood was manipulated demonstrated that the number of broo...
