    In highly social bee populations, bee kings influence the behavior of bee populations by releasing information.
    Bee king information has a variety of important functions, such as inhibiting the cultivation of new bee king and the development of the worker bee ovary, attracting worker bees around the bee king to form a waiter circle and feed the bee king, induce male bees to track and mate.
    Eastern bees and Western bees are very close sister species, the two bees have similar components and content differences, that is, bee king information is conservative, but the two bees on the bee king information ion perception and response is not clear.
    team led by Tan Ken, a researcher in the Chemical Ecology Research Group of Xishuangbana Tropical Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, conducted a detailed study on the mechanism of the bee king's information.
    study found that Western bees are much more sensitive to bee king information, and western bee kings have more bees around than eastern bees.
    these results show that different bees have specific chemical feelings about bee king cellulose, which may help explain the high level of ovarian development of eastern bees.
    Because eastern bees are more likely to be bee-splitting and absconding than western bees, they are more likely to lose their bee kings, and worker bees are less sensitive to bee king pythons, making their ovary development a behavioral adaptation that helps improve the suitability of bee populations.
    study was published in Scientific Reports under the title "Resisting majesty:Apis cerana, hass lower antennal persy and a lessed attraction to queen mandibular pheromone than Apis mellifera."
