Comparative reproductive biology of the social parasite Acromyrmex ameliae de Souza, Soares & Della Lucia and of its host Acromyrmex subterraneus subterraneus Forel (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) [PDF]
Social parasites exhibit several characteristics that allow them to exploit their host species efficiently. The smaller size of parasite species is a trait commonly found in ants. In this work, we investigated several aspects of the reproductive biology of Acromyrmex ameliae De Souza, Soares & Della Lucia, a recently discovered parasite of Acromyrmex ...

Microbes have many mechanisms to exert their inhibitory activity against target pests. One such mechanism involves the production and secretion of hydrolytic enzymes, such as chitinases, which are produced naturally by plants in response to attack by insect herbivores and phytopathogens and have been sought as an additional factor to enhance pest ...
