Disentangling nutritional pathways linking leafcutter ants and their co‐evolved fungal symbionts using stable isotopes

Leafcutter ants are the ultimate insect superorganisms, with up to millions of physiologically specialized workers cooperating to cut and transport vegetation and then convert it into compost used to cultivate co‐evolved fungi, domesticated over millions of years. We tested hypotheses about the nutr...
