The paper shows that infected ant pupae emit chemical signals to trigger their own destruction by colony members, with worker pupae doing so due to weaker immunity compared to queen pupae.

This study shows that severe fungal infection impairs fighting success in ant males, revealing a trade-off between immunity and competitive ability, with worker aggression also influencing outcomes.
