摘要:
It is suggested that the evolution of polyandry by social hymenopteran queens is caused by colony-level selection, either because polyandry affects the distribution of non-functional diploid males in colonies (the load hypothesis) or because it increases the genetic diversity of the worker force (the diversity hypothesis).
