TL;DR: The genome sequence of the honeybee Apis mellifera is reported, suggesting a novel African origin for the species A. melliferA and insights into whether Africanized bees spread throughout the New World via hybridization or displacement.

Stability analysis of swarms
Veysel Gazi,Kevin M. Passino +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the individuals (autonomous agents or biological creatures) will form a cohesive swarm in a finite time and an explicit bound on the swarm size is obtained, which depends only on the parameters of the swarm model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life and death: metabolic rate, membrane composition, and life span of animals.
TL;DR: The links between metabolic rate andmaximum life span of mammals and birds as well as the linking role of membrane fatty acid composition in determining the maximum life span are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conflict resolution in insect societies
TL;DR: Five major areas of reproductive conflict in insect societies are reviewed: (a) sex allocation, (b) queen rearing, (c) male rearing), (d) queen-worker caste fate, and (e) breeding conflicts among totipotent adults.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reproductive protein protects functionally sterile honey bee workers from oxidative stress.
TL;DR: The finding suggests that one mechanistic explanation for patterns of longevity in bees is that a reproductive regulatory pathway has been remodeled to extend life, and is of considerable relevance to research on longevity regulation that builds largely on inference from solitary model species.
