MMajoe/Lasius-neglectus-Queen-and-workers: Queen loss fails to elicit physiological and transcriptional responses in workers of the invasive garden ant Lasius neglectus

Puntos clave

• The aim is to investigate whether losing the queen affects the physiological and transcriptional responses of worker ants in Lasius neglectus.
• Comparison of worker ants' physiological and transcriptional changes post-queen loss.
• Analysis conducted using R-scripts and data from multiple manuscript versions.
• Assessment of results across provided supplemental tables.
• No significant physiological or transcriptional responses were noted in workers after queen loss.
• Findings indicate that Lasius neglectus workers maintain stability despite changes in colony structure.
