Reduced regulatory complexity associated with the evolutionary transition to sociality from cockroaches to termites despite evolutionary parallels with Hymenoptera

et al.

Abstract: In social species, the phenotypic diversity within a single species has often been associated with more complex genetic regulation. Transcription factors (TFs) being key to genetic regulation, have been studied in the origins of eusociality in Hymenoptera (Bees, Ants and Wasps) but less so in Blattodea (Cockroaches and Termites). Here we show that the social transition in Blattodea, from cockroaches to termites, displays similar patterns of regulatory change to those found in Hymenoptera. Specifically, by anal… Show more
