The role of small RNAs in caste determination and differentiation in the bumble bee, Bombus terrestris

Investigating the molecular basis of queen-worker caste determination and differentiation in eusocial insects allows researchers to address fundamental aspects of evolution and development. In this regard, little is known of the role of gene regulation by microRNAs (miRNAs), non-coding RNA molecules...
