Differential gene expression underlying the biosynthesis of Dufour's gland signals in Bombus impatiens

Pheromones regulating social behavior are one of the most explored phenomena in social insects. However, compound identity, biosynthesis and their genetic basis are known in only a handful of species. Here we examined the gene expression associated with pheromone biosynthesis of two main chemical cl...
