Melee Attacks
From The StarCraft 2 Wiki
Melee Attacks is an upgrade that is available for the Zerg that enhances the damage output of all melee ground units. It is researched from the Evolution Chamber and, like all weapon and armor upgrades, it has a research time that is noticeably longer than the units build duration.
