The functional morphology of the metapleural gland of the leaf-cutting ant Atta laevigata (Formicidae: Attini)

Micron, 2010
Given the importance of the metapleural gland in ants, the present study aimed at describing it in minor, media, and major workers of Atta laevigata, focusing their physiology using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), histologic, and histochemical techniques.

Mono- and sesquiterpene variation in Pinus caribaea needles and its relationship to Atta laevigata herbivory

Biochemical Systematics and Ecology, 1994
Abstract The relationship between terpene content in Pinus caribaea needles and Atta laevigata herbivory was examined. Analysis of newly defoliated (foraged) pines revealed that the concentrations of myrcene and caryophyllene were lower than in undefoliated (non-foraged) trees.

Actividad Antibacteriana de un Péptido Antimicrobiano de Atta laevigata en Bacterias Patógenas de Tejidos Blandos

2022
Introducción: Las infecciones de piel y tejidos blandos (IPTB) son todas aquellas patologías que se desencadenan cuando el equilibrio entre los microorganismos y el hospedero se rompen, permitiendo así la entrada de bacterias como Staphylococcus aureus y Streptococcus pyogenes, quienes son los principales agentes etiológicos implicados en las IPTB; sin
