Understanding the ecological relevance of variation within and between colonies has been an important and recurring theme in social insect research. Recent research addresses the genomic and physiological factors and fitness effects associated with behavioral variation, within and among colonies, in regulation of activity, cognitive abilities, and aggression. Behavioral variation among colonies has consequences for survival and reproductive success that are the basis for evolutionary change.
了解群体内和群体间变异的生态相关性一直是社会昆虫研究中的一个重要且反复出现的主题。最近的研究解决了与行为变异相关的基因组和生理因素以及适应度效应，包括在活动、认知能力和攻击性方面的调节。群体间的行为变异对生存和繁殖成功有影响，这是进化变化的基础。
