Integrating WGCNA, TCN, and Alternative Splicing to Map Early Caste Programs in Day-2 Honeybee Larvae

The 2-day-old larval stage is crucial for both caste and sex differentiation in honeybees. This study identifies key genes and splicing events, offering new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying caste formation and sex determination.
