| الوصف: | A key mechanistic hypothesis for the evolution of division of labour in social insects is that a sharedset of genes co-opted from a common solitary ancestral ground plan (a genetic toolkit for sociality) regulates caste differentiation across levels of social complexity. Using brain transcriptome data from nine species of vespid wasps, we test for overlap in differentially expressed caste genes and use machine learningmodels to predict castes usjavascript:void(0);ing different gene sets. We find evidence of a shared genetic toolkit across species representing different levels of social complexity. We also find evidence of additional finescale differences in predictive gene sets, functional enrichment and rates of gene evolution that are related to level of social complexity, lineage and of colony founding. These results suggest that the concept of a shared genetic toolkit for sociality may be too simplistic to fully describe the process of the major transition to sociality. |
