Social insect genomics conference 2011

Many interesting talks and stimulating discussions during Shenzhen’s Social Insect Genomics Conference which coincided with the release of Sanne Nygaard’s Acromyrmex echinatior leaf-cutter ant genome paper showing adaptations linked to fungal farming. More excitement is on its way with next generation sociogenetics projects bubbling up around the world & across the phylogeny!
