Olf@Task investigates how olfactory perception influences the division of labor in social insects, particularly honey bees. By examining the role of pheromones and using advanced neurogenetic tools, the project aims to uncover the mechanisms behind task allocation within colonies.
Division of labor and task specialization are key elements explaining the remarkable ecological success of human and animal societies.
Social insect colonies are characterized by a highly effective division of labor, with workers specializing in brood care early in life and in foraging later in life.
Various theoretical models have been proposed to explain division of labor, most prominently the response threshold model, which postulates that individuals differ in their response threshold to tas…
