Differential Selection on Caste-Associated Genes in a Subterranean Termite

Differential Selection on Caste-Associated Genes in a Subterranean Termite

Analyzing the information-rich content of RNA can help uncover genetic events associated with social insect castes or other social polymorphisms. Here, we exploit a series of cDNA libraries previously derived from whole-body tissue of different castes as well as from three behaviourally distinct pop...
