A study in PNAS describes a maternal-effect killer supergene that regulates social behaviour in Alpine silver ants. Queens carrying the ‘killer’ haplotype fail to produce live progeny homozygous for the alternative haplotype, ensuring all colonies adopt a multiple-queen, rather than single-queen, social structure.

杀手皇后和超基因。

PNAS 的一项研究描述了一种母体效应杀手超基因,可调节高山银蚁的社会行为。携带“杀手”单倍型的皇后不能产生与替代单倍型纯合的活后代,从而确保所有殖民地都采用多皇后而不是单皇后的社会结构。
