Melanogaster, maybe the result of considerable rewiring within and among certain pathways, which made possible the divergence in the queen/worker developmental pathways. Interestingly, this divergence is only seen in the female sex, whereas in the male sex, drones may be larger or smaller, depending on the larval rearing conditions, but they show no essential differences in morphology. , 2014). As an overarching argument for all these “incompatibilities” in the signalling pathways, we found that the hypoxia response core genes are significantly over-expressed in worker larvae, indicating an endogenous hypoxia response.
