0 Il existe dans chaque colonie une régulation sociale qui conditionne l'apparition des diverses castes et leur proportion relative (…). La théorie trophogénétique du déterminisme des castes s'appuie (…) sur l'existence de facteurs somatiques, essentiellement nutritiaux, qui induiraient la croissance des organes génitaux femelles. Un bon nombre d'arguments plaident en sa faveur.
