متن کاملDeconstructing the superorganism: social physiology, groundplans, and sociogenomics.
Our understanding of insect societies is rapidly expanding due to an emphasis on integrative approaches. Emerging tools enabling the molecular dissection of social behavior, together with novel hypotheses for the evolution of eusociality, are emblematic of this progress. However, an obstacle to a truly integrative approach remains, as social physiology--the basis of group-level coordination--ha...

متن کاملPLANT–INSECT INTERACTIONS IN THE ERA OF CONSOLIDATION IN BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES Nicotiana attenuata as an ecological expression system
The past decades have seen an intense development of organismal biology and genomics of individual species on the one hand, and population biology and evolutionary ecology on the other. While the great discoveries fuelled by the current model systems will continue over the next decades, more and more discoveries will occur at the interface between different biological disciplines. It is through...
