During the past few decades, it has become increasingly apparent that heredity is not the sole determining factor in disease development, such as cancer.
A number of species of Thysanoptera (thrips) are increasingly important crop pests in many parts of the world, as well as in some cases being vectors of plant disease.
From the acclaimed author of Honeybee Democracy, a classic account of the ecological factors that shape the social lives of honeybeesFor many years, research on honeybee social life dealt primarily with the physiological processes underlying the social system of the bee rather than the ecological factors that have shaped its societies.
