Selected genetic and biological attributes of the Hymenoptera which differ from those of other insect groups are discussed in relation to modes of reproduction, sex determination and gender allocation and sex ratio. Genetic variation and population viability, single locus variation and quantitative variation are considered. Genetic load and inbreeding depression are discussed in relation to haplodiploidy and thelytoky. Intraspecific variation in response to abiotic factors, host suitability and in susceptibility to toxins is considered in the final section.
