Workers
Give up reproduction for the benefit of their mother queen
Darwinian puzzle
‘The sterile worker caste of the social Hymenoptera poses one special difficulty, which at first appeared to me insuperable, and actually fatal to my whole
theory.’
Darwin (1859) On the Origin of
Species
Why become a worker?
![Page 5: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
E.g. honey bee benefit of becoming a queen:
ability to head daughter swarm
SO WHY DO NOT MANY FEMALES OPT TO BECOME QUEENS?
females benefit from becoming a queen, but colony would suffer if all would do so “caste fate conflict”(colony mostly needs workers for swarming)
individual benefits but collective suffers = “tragedy of the commons”

Summary
social insect females benefit from developing as a queen
in Melipona, females have the ability to do this (’self determination’)
results in excess queen production
why do not all females develop as a queen?
what limits exploitation within the group?
![Page 20: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
W.D. Hamilton (1936-2000)
Kin selection theory
![Page 21: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Costs to kin can limit exploitation
when selfishness causes cost to kin exploitation becomes less profitable
queen overproduction causes depletion of workforce and has two costs to kin:
reduced ability to swarmreduced production of males
prediction: less exploitation when group members are highly related
has never been tested
![Page 22: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Factors determining kinship
multiple mating by queen: reduces relatedness among sisters
does not occur in stingless bees
worker laying
– workers can sometimes produce sons
– relatedness to worker’s sons = 0.75
– relatedness to queen’s sons = 0.25
can occur in stingless bees
![Page 23: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Caste conflict model
female should become a queen with a probability of (1-Rf) / (1+Rm) (self determination)
with Rf = sister-sister relatedness
Rm = relatedness to males
= 20% under single mating, all males queen produced
= 14% under single mating, all males worker produced
assuming linear cost to total colony reproduction
higher/lower ratios with other cost functions

Test: interspecies comparison
PREDICTION
less queen overproduction when males are worker’s sons, since costs are then to closer relatives
(nephews, r = 0.75, rather than brothers, r = 0.25)

Summary
Melipona females selfishly exploit colony by developing as queens
causes “tragedy of the commons”: queen overproduction
reduced exploitation when costs are to close kin (workers’ sons)
![Page 35: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Alternative explanations for excess queen production
in Melipona ?
![Page 36: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
1. Kerr’s theory of genetic caste determination
♀♀ ♀
♀
♀♀ ♀♀
Kerr (1950) proposed2-locus 2-allele systemfor Melipona
females heterozygous at both loci develop into queens
results in 25% queens
![Page 37: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Different levels of explanation
not an alternative hypothesis –different level of explanation (Alcock 1993) :
Kerr’s hypothesis suggests HOW the observed caste ratios could come about (PROXIMATE)
Caste conflict theory explains WHY the caste ratios are as observed (ULTIMATE)
cf. XY-sex determination as an efficient mechanism to attain optimal 1:1 sex ratioin mammals
![Page 38: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
2. Insurance against queen loss?
queen are overproduced to ensure that continuous stock of queens is present
bet-hedging argument
queen overproduction is far too high
queen replacement takes 10 daysin this period up to 70 queens are produced
there are other ways to ensure a continuous stock of queens
![Page 39: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Queen stocks kept in prisonsIn Trigonini stingless bees, e.g. Plebeia remota
ensures that continuous stock of queens is present without having to overproduce them
![Page 40: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
What about other social insects?
other swarming social insects: queen-worker size dimorphism– army ants– honey bees– trigonine (non-Melipona) stingless bees
caste fate enforced via food control
results in few queens being produced
makes individuals work for the benefit of society and develop as a worker, even when not in best interests of individuals themselves
![Page 41: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Honey bee
multiply mated: Rf=0.3, Rm=0.25
females would like to become queens with prob. of (1-Rf) / (1+Rm) = 56%
only 0.02% actually become queens
strong divergence between individual and colony optimum
females are coerced into a working role
![Page 43: Actual and potential tragedies: conflicts over female caste fate in Apis and Melipona bees](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062720/5681351a550346895d9c7261/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Evasion of caste policing:dwarf queens
observations– occur in ants and trigonine bees– same size as workers– produced in excess– can reproduce, although usually less
fecund
hypothesis– selfish strategy to overcome worker
feeding control?
support– overproduced relative to normal queens

Frequency of dwarf queens
overproduced relative to normal queens– E.g. Schwarziana quadripunctata– 1 in 85 worker cells (1.2%) yield dwarf queens– only 1 in 620 females reared as normal queens (0.16%)– i.e. 88% of all queens produced are dwarf queens &
produced in 7-fold excess relative to normal queens
excess queens are killed by workers as in Melipona
as predicted by caste conflict theory !

Summary
social insect caste system provides scope for conflict
caste conflict may cause significant costs to the society
(Melipona – queen overproduction)
coercion is more effective than kinship in suppressing caste conflict

What can we learn from all this?

Insight into conflict resolution
Self determination20% queen production
stingless bees
Policing of caste fate0.02% queen production
honey bees
Individual Freedom Causes a Cost to Society
But females prefer to become
queen with probability
of 56% !
Efficient Society but
No Individual Freedom
THE SAME TENSION OCCURS IN HUMAN SOCIETY !
