Thomas D. Seeley References (2097 words)
Worker bees have the potential to lay eggs that will produce males, but less than 0.1% of the males produced in a colony derive from worker-laid eggs.
This worker-worker policing is favored in honey bee colonies because the queen mates with multiple males, hence each worker is surrounded mainly by half sisters and each worker is more closely related to the male offspring of the queen (her brothers, r = 0.25) than those of her half sisters (her half-nephews, r = 0.125).
The mechanism by which this is accomplished involves the nurse bees feeding the foragers proteinaceous food when the pollen reserve is large, but withholding this when the pollen reserve is small.
