    Evolution 55:1639-43. 2001
    ..This may help to explain why B. terrestris and most other social insects are often monandrous...

    A Sauter
    , Experimental Ecology, ETH-Zentrum NW, , Switzerland
    Proc Biol Sci 268:1449-54. 2001
    ..Furthermore, such male interference could be a more general phenomenon in social insects, with obvious ramifications for the evolution of polyandry in this group...

    Mol Ecol 16:1327-39. 2007
    ..Only one QTL for body size was plausibly found in at least two populations. QTLs for encapsulation and Crithidia infection intensity were located on the same linkage groups...
