Queens perform prophylactic undertaking behaviours towards co-foundress corpses. Queens encountering non-infected and infected corpses performed several behaviours, namely corpse a biting and b burying or c removal. These behaviours were performed equally towards both infected and non-infected corpses (error bars show ±95% CI; n.s. = non-significant GLM result at α = 0.05). Supporting data in Additional file 2
