BIOCHEMICAL PHENOTYPIC AND GENETIC STUDIES OF TWO INTRODUCED FIRE ANTS AND THEIR HYBRID (HYMENOPTERA: FORMICIDAE)
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
Two introduced fire ants, Solenopsis invicta and S. richteri, and their hybrid were studied using phenotypic markers from gas chromatographic analysis of hydrocarbons and venom alkaloids, as well as genetic markers from enzyme electrophoresis to suggest that F1 hybrids are viable.
