The circadian rhythms of physiology and behavior, which are based on a highly ubiquitous gene regulatory network, play a crucial role in the age-based division of labor in social insects like Apis mellifera. These, which belong to the Apini tribe, along with the stingless bees (Meliponini), were the only ones to achieve the highest degree of eusociality among corbiculate bees. Despite 70%…
The circadian rhythms of insects are generated through an oscillatory and self-regulatory gene loop, whose organization is poorly characterized in members of the Meliponini tribe, which are the highly eusocial bees native to Brazil. In the honey bee, Apis mellifera, the molecular operation of circadian rhythms is highly characterized, and, strikingly, it has greater similarity with humans…
The regulatory circuitry of the molecular clock that generates circadian activity rhythms shows a striking feature in the workers of the highly eusocial honey bees. While caring for the brood, the workers are arrhythmic in their behaviors, and the genes composing the core-loop module of the clock do not oscillate in their expression. They only become rhythmic once they become foragers. To…
