Polyphenism in social insects: insights from a transcriptome-wide analysis of gene expression in the life stages of the key pollinator, <it>Bombus terrestris</it>
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Understanding polyphenism, the ability of a single genome to express multiple morphologically and behaviourally distinct phenotypes, is an important goal for evolutionary and developmental biology. Polyphenism has been key to the evo...
