Chemical Profiles of Two Pheromone Glands Are Differentially Regulated by Distinct Mating Factors in Honey Bee Queens (Apis mellifera L.)
PLOS ONE, 8(11).
MeSH headings : Animals; Bees / metabolism; Exocrine Glands / metabolism; Female; Gene Expression Regulation; Insemination; Male; Pheromones / metabolism; Reproduction / physiology; Sexual Behavior, Animal
TL;DR:
The long-term impact of different factors involved during queen insemination on the chemical composition of the mandibular and Dufour's glands, two of the major sources of queen pheromone, suggest that the chemical contents of these two glands are regulated by different neuro-physiological mechanisms.

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
