Abstract
Stingless bees of the genus construct a brood comb with a spiral or a target pattern architecture in three dimensions. Crystals possess these same patterns on the molecular scale. Here, we show that the same excitable-medium dynamics governs both crystal nucleation and growth and comb construction in , so that a minimal coupled-map lattice model based on crystal growth explains how these bees produce the structures seen in their bee combs.
摘要
属的无刺蜂构建了一种具有三维螺旋或靶心图案结构的育雏巢脾。晶体在分子尺度上具有这些相同的图案。在这里，我们表明相同的可激发介质动力学同时控制着晶体的成核和生长以及属中巢脾的构建，因此基于晶体生长的最小耦合映射晶格模型解释了这些蜜蜂如何产生其蜂巢中所见的结构。
