Division of labour underlies efficient colony defence in a clonal ant

Z. Li, Q. Wang, D. Knebel, D. Veit, Y. Ulrich

This study links division of labour to colony defence efficiency in clonal ants, showing that behavioural variation within colonies enhances defence effectiveness regardless of social environment.

Behavioural individuality determines infection risk in clonal ant colonies

Z. Li, E. T. Frank, T. Oliveira-Honorato, F. Azuma, V. Bachmann, D. J. Parker, T. Schmitt, E. P. Economo, Y. Ulrich

The paper shows that individual behavioral differences in clonal ant colonies influence infection risk by altering division of labour and spatial distribution, leading to increased parasite transmission.

Emergent behavioral organization in heterogeneous groups of a social insect

Y. Ulrich, M. Kawakatsu, C. K. Tokita, J. Saragosti, V. Chandra, C. E. Tarnita, D. J. Kronauer

This study examines how group composition affects behavior and division of labor in clonal raider ants using experimental and theoretical approaches, showing that heterogeneity in genotype, age, and morphology leads to distinct behavioral patterns.
