Effects of immunostimulation on social behavior, chemical communication and genome-wide gene expression in honey bee workers (Apis mellifera)
BMC Genomics, 13.

2011 journal article
Effects of Instrumental Insemination and Insemination Quantity on Dufour’s Gland Chemical Profiles and Vitellogenin Expression in Honey Bee Queens (Apis mellifera)
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 37(9), 1027–1036.
author keywords: Chemical ecology; Gene expression; Behavior; Social insects; Pheromone
MeSH headings : Animals; Bees / genetics; Bees / metabolism; Bees / physiology; Female; Gene Expression Regulation; Insemination; Male; Pheromones / metabolism; Vitellogenins / genetics
TL;DR:
It appears that the differences in behavioral responses were elicited by subtle changes in the overall chemical profiles rather than dramatic changes in specific individual chemicals.

Effects of queen mandibular pheromone on nestmate recognition in worker honeybees, Apis mellifera

2009 journal article
Queen reproductive state modulates pheromone production and queen-worker interactions in honeybees
BEHAVIORAL ECOLOGY, 20(5), 1007–1014.
author keywords: behavior; caste; chemical communication; pheromone; reproduction; social insect
TL;DR:
These studies suggest that the queen pheromone blend is modulated by the reproductive status of the queens, and workers can detect these subtle differences and are more responsive to queens with higher reproductive potential.

Genomic analysis of post-mating changes in the honey bee queen (Apis mellifera)
BMC GENOMICS, 9.
MeSH headings : Animals; Base Sequence; Bees / genetics; Bees / growth & development; Bees / physiology; Brain / metabolism; DNA Primers / genetics; Drosophila / genetics; Drosophila / physiology; Female; Gene Expression Profiling; Genomics; Male; Oligonucleotide Array Sequence Analysis; Ovary / growth & development; Ovary / metabolism; RNA / genetics; RNA / metabolism; Reproduction / genetics; Reproduction / physiology; Sex Attractants / metabolism; Sexual Behavior, Animal; Species Specificity; Sperm Count; Vitellogenins / genetics; Vitellogenins / metabolism
TL;DR:
Studying the underlying molecular mechanisms of post-mating changes in honey bee queens will not only give insight into how molecular mechanisms regulate physiological and behavioral changes, but they may also lead to important insights into the evolution of social behavior.

2008 journal article
Social management of LPS-induced inflammation in Formica polyctena ants
BRAIN BEHAVIOR AND IMMUNITY, 22(6), 833–837.
author keywords: lipopolysaccharides; innate immunity; social behavior; insects; ants
MeSH headings : Animals; Ants / immunology; Ants / physiology; Behavior, Animal / physiology; Immunity, Innate / physiology; Inflammation / chemically induced; Inflammation / immunology; Inflammation / physiopathology; Lipopolysaccharides / toxicity; Nesting Behavior / physiology; Social Behavior
TL;DR:
It is shown that LPS-induced immune activation in ants triggers behavioral changes in nestmates, which supports the importance of social interactions in resistance to disease in social insects, and perhaps social animals in general.

Specificity in chemical profiles of workers, brood and mutualistic fungi in Atta, Acromyrmex, and Sericomyrmex fungus-growing ants
JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL ECOLOGY, 33(12), 2281–2292.
author keywords: cuticular hydrocarbons; colony odor; recognition; symbiosis
MeSH headings : Animals; Ants / chemistry; Ants / physiology; Fungi / physiology; Hydrocarbons / chemistry; Symbiosis
TL;DR:
It is hypothesize that hydrocarbons are particularly important as recognition cues because they appear to simultaneously allow the assessment of developmental stages and the identification of symbiont, colony, and species.
