Comparison of gene expression in the red imported fire ant (Solenopsis invicta) under different temperature conditions

Abstract The red imported fire ant (RIFA), Solenopsis invicta Buren is native to South America and is known as a global problematic invasive species. This study focused on the molecular response of RIFA by comparing gene expression profiles after exposing ants to low (10 °C) and high (40 °C) tempera...
