Variation in the level of aggression, chemical and genetic distance among three supercolonies of the Argentine ant in EuropeNARA Subscribed
In their invasive ranges, Argentine ant populations often form one geographically vast supercolony, genetically and chemically uniform within which there is no intraspecific aggression. Here we present regional patterns of intraspecific aggression, cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) and population genetics of 18 nesting sites across Corsica and the French mainland. Aggression tests confirm the presence of a third European supercolo...
Intraspecific competition affects population size and resource allocation in an ant dispersing by colony fissionNARA Subscribed
Intraspecific competition is a pervasive phenomenon with important ecological and evolutionary consequences, yet its effect in natural populations remains controversial. Although numerous studies suggest that in many cases populations across all organisms are limited by density‐dependent processes, this conclusion often relies on correlative data. Here, using an experimental approach, we examined the effect of intraspecific co...
