Non-lethal fungal infection could reduce aggression towards strangers in ants

Biology

Non-lethal fungal infection could reduce aggression towards strangers in ants

E. Csata, L. P. Casacci, et al.

Discover how the ant-parasitic fungus *Rickia wasmanni* influences *Myrmica* ants, leading them to accept infected non-nestmates. This fascinating research by Enikő Csata, Luca Pietro Casacci, Joachim Ruther, Abel Bernadou, Jürgen Heinze, and Bálint Markó reveals that increased levels of tricosane (n-C23) in infected ants act as a pacifying signal, potentially reshaping their colony structures.
