Social evolution and absence of olfactory function in larval honey bees

Tianfei Peng, Zhenqing Chen, Amy C. Cash-Ahmed…·Gene E. Robinson

The paper shows larval honey bees have reduced olfactory function and rely on taste for feeding, with downregulated olfactory receptor genes and upregulated gustatory receptor genes.

Molecular analyses of individual variation in honey bee sociability

Ian M. Traniello, Arián Avalos, Michael Joe Munyua Gachomba…·Gene E. Robinson

This study identifies genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying sociability in honey bees by linking SNPs, brain gene expression, and trophallaxis behavior.
