ETHOLOGY ECOLOGY & EVOLUTION, 21(2), 147–153.
author keywords: honey bee queens; lethal fighting; reproductive quality; colony-level selection; social insect reproduction
TL;DR:
It was found that heavier queens were significantly more likely to survive than lighter queens, suggesting that there may be opposing levels of selection acting on queen duels at the individual and colony levels.
