摘要:

SUMMARYWorker larvae ofMelipona rufiventris, M. quadrifasciataandM. compressipeswere treated topically with juvenile hormone (JH) during the cocoon-spinning phase. Examination of the tergites of the queens obtained following JH application showed induced differentiation into adults with full female (queen) traits.Meliponaworkers had tergal glands only in tergite II, whereas natural and JH-induced queens had tergal glands in tergite II plus additional glands in at least one other of tergites III to VII.
