We studied the genomics of social polymorphism in ants. We identified a "social chromosome" associated with colony structure in the desert ant Cataglyphis niger. This chromosome is homologous to the social chromosome of the fire ant Solenopsis invicta.

Megajournals like @SciReports, @PLOSONE and @IJERPH_MDPI threaten scientific progress, benefiting only publishers and their shareholders. We need non-profit institutions to lead scientific publishing! #OpenScience #NonProfitPublishing ☢️

"Author finds another’s name on an Elsevier book chapter she wrote" Interesting and warrisome to see this.
Pay more attention to any legal clauses for future reuse by the publisher. The editor should have known better too #AcademicWriting

Soil invertebrates such as #springtails and #oribatid #mites may be able to decompose dead plant material.🍃 🍂
Researchers from @LOEWE_TBG, @Senckenberg, @goetheuni identified cellulase #genes in some invertebrates that help the digestion of cellulose.
