Abstract
⺠Honey bee histones are post-translationally modified. ⺠For the first time, we identify and quantify 23 individual histone modifications in honey bee whole larvae and queen ovaries. ⺠Combinatorial analyses suggest a histone code exists in the honey bee. ⺠Histone modifications provide a potential mechanism to mediate phenotypic plasticity in the honey bee.
