社会进化影响了当代蜜蜂生物学的各个方面，但细节很难重建。社会进化的生殖地规划假说提出，独居昆虫的性淋循环的中央调节器已经被用来协调蜜蜂的社会复杂性，例如工蜂之间的劳动分工。生殖生理和社会行为之间的预测性状关联已经在花粉囤积综合征的背景下被确定，这是一套更大的相互关联的性状。该综合征的遗传结构以部分重叠的遗传结构为特征，具有几个一致的多效性数量性状位点（QTL）。尽管有这些中心QTL和综合的激素调控，花粉囤积综合征的不同方面可能由于外围QTL和额外的分离遗传变异而独立进化。花粉囤积综合征的特征也表明，这种综合征涉及许多非行为特征，这可能是许多“行为”综合征的情况。此外，花粉囤积综合征的遗传结构对改善蜂蜜健康和其他理想性状的育种计划也有影响：如果这些性状与花粉囤积综合征相当，一致的多效性QTL将使标记辅助选择成为可能，而足够的额外遗传变异可能允许分离权衡，以实现有效的多性状选择。
Social evolution has influenced every aspect of contemporary honey bee biology, but the details are difficult to reconstruct. The reproductive ground plan hypothesis of social evolution proposes that central regulators of the gonotropic cycle of solitary insects have been co-opted to coordinate social complexity in honey bees, such as the division of labor among workers. The predicted trait associations between reproductive physiology and social behavior have been identified in the context of the pollen hoarding syndrome, a larger suite of interrelated traits. The genetic architecture of this syndrome is characterized by a partially overlapping genetic architecture with several consistent, pleiotropic quantitative trait loci (QTL). Despite these central QTL and an integrated hormonal regulation, separate aspects of the pollen hoarding syndrome may evolve independently due to peripheral QTL and additionally segregating genetic variance. The characterization of the pollen hoarding syndrome has also demonstrated that this syndrome involves many non-behavioral traits, which may be the case for numerous “behavioral” syndromes. Furthermore, the genetic architecture of the pollen hoarding syndrome has implications for breeding programs for improving honey health and other desirable traits: if these traits are comparable to the pollen hoarding syndrome, consistent pleiotropic QTL will enable marker-assisted selection, while sufficient additional genetic variation may permit the dissociation of trade-offs for efficient multiple trait selection.
