From: Targeted worker removal reveals a lack of flexibility in brood transport specialisation with no compensatory gain in efficiency

Figure 10

Mean time taken to transport half of the brood per day (average of the two observation sessions) for control (red) and treatment (grey) subcolonies. A time of 150 min was reported for observation sessions in which less than half of the brood was transported. Bars with a ↓ or ↓↓ indicate no brood transport occurred at all during either one or both observation sessions. Days 11, 12 and 13 present data following re-introduction of removed workers.
