In a study published in the open access journal PLoS genetics (public library of science), gro Amdam, associate professor, should be the king, a research scientist at the college of life science at Arizona state university college of humanities, to explain how the first time, they have successfully killed two genes in the "master regulator" of bees module, control food related behavior.
