A supergene controlling social structure in Alpine ants also affects the dispersal ability and fecundity of each sex

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Social organization, dispersal and fecundity coevolve, but whether they are genetically linked remains little known. Supergenes are prime candidates for coupling adaptive traits and mediating sex-specific trade-offs. Here, we test whether a supergene that controls social structure in
