真社会性昆虫生殖分工的建立是典型的基于蜂王对工蜂的优势相互作用。我们使用一个标准化的行为分析，环管，观察攻击和其他行为之间的皇后和工人的现场收集的社会群体的汗蜂，Megalopta genalis。皇后一般表现出更高水平的攻击和主导行为比工人。工蚁比蚁后更频繁地进行两种行为，“C姿势”和“反向”。我们的数据表明，工人的C-姿势的防御功能，因为它与女王侵略的表达。在女王，侵略行为“轻推”，“咬”，“推”，“追逐”彼此相关的表达频率，其他两个行为，更经常由女王（“备份”和“回到”）没有。两种行为进行更经常的工人，“C-姿势”和“反向”，工人没有相关性。蜂王和工蜂的活动水平是相关的。在女王和工人种姓中，身体大小与女王样行为的表达增加相关。蚁后通常比工蚁更大，卵巢也更大。雌工蜂体型和卵巢大小的差异与行为差异相关。体型的影响表明发育营养对成年行为的影响。
The establishment of reproductive division of labor in primitively eusocial insects is typically based on dominance interactions from the queen toward her worker daughters. We used a standardized behavioral assay, the circle tube, to observe aggressive and other behaviors between the queen and workers of field-collected social colonies of the sweat bee,Megalopta genalis.Queens generally expressed higher levels of aggressive and dominant behaviors than workers. Workers performed two behaviors, ‘C-posture’ and ‘reverse’, more frequently than queens. Our data suggest a defensive function for C-posture in workers, as it correlated with the expression of queen aggression. Within queens, the aggressive behaviors ‘nudge’, ‘bite’, ‘push’, and ‘chase’ correlated with each other in their frequencies of expression; the other two behaviors that were performed more often by queens (‘back up’ and ‘back into’) did not. The two behaviors performed more often by workers, ‘C-posture’ and ‘reverse’, were not correlated in workers. Queen and worker activity levels were correlated. Body size correlated with increased expression of queen-like behavior in both the queen and worker castes. Queens generally were bigger and had larger ovaries than workers. Queen–worker body size and ovary size differences correlated with behavioral differences. The effects of body size suggest an influence of developmental nutrition on adult behavior.
