• Ecological, behavioral, and biochemical aspects of insect hydrocarbons. (2005, background): “(101) discussed these changes in terms of a switch from behavioral dominance to chemical signaling, which involves less risk to the dominant female.”
• Kin recognition in eusocial wasps (2004, unknown): “Sledge et al. (2001b) collected parasitized field colonies of P.”
• Chemical recognition of reproductive status in social insects (2006, background): “Additionally, alpha and subordinate foundresses chemically differ from workers (Sledge et al. 2001).”
• Queen fertility, egg marking and colony size in the ant Camponotus floridanus (2006, unknown): “…link between CHC patterns and fertility (Bonavita-Cougourdan et al. 1991; Ayasse et al. 1995; Monnin et al. 1998; Peeters et al. 1999; Liebig et al. 2000; Sledge et al. 2001; Cuvillier-Hot et al. 2002, 2004a; Hannonen et al. 2002; Heinze et al. 2002; Tentschert et al. 2002; De Biseau et al. 2004).”
• Worker rank, reproductive status and cuticular hydrocarbon signature in the ant, Pachycondyla cf. inversa (2002, background): “Trabalon et al. 1990; Ayasse et al. 1995; Monnin et al. 1998; Liebig et al. 2000; Cuvillier-Hot et al. 2001; Sledge et al. 2001 ), the evidence remains correlative.”
• Fertility signalling and reproductive skew in queenless ants (2004, background): “Workers of several species of ants and social wasps can detect the presence of egg layers in the nest, probably through contact pheromones (e.g. for ants: Gnamptogenys menadensis: Gobin et al. 1999; Diacamma sp.: Kikuta & Tsuji 1999; Tsuji et al. 1999; Harpegnathos saltator: Liebig et al. 1999; Form”
• Endocrine Control of Insect Polyphenism (2012, background): “!ereafter, the dominant female signals her status to the subordinate females (Sledge et al., 2001), and whenever she encounters an egg laid by another female she removes it.”
