ABSTRACT Cockroaches are known reservoirs for diverse bacterial microbiomes. However, comprehensive analyses of the eukaryotic communities within cockroaches remain limited. In this study, we selected three long‐term laboratory‐reared cockroach species (Blattella germanica, Periplaneta fuliginosa, and Periplaneta japonica) and performed metabarcoding ...

Intestinal Tumours in the German Cockroach Blattella germanica L. [PDF]
NATURALLY occurring tumours are extremely rare in insects. Harker1 in her review reports that, except for those in Drosophila, only two have been described during the past 25 years. Tumours can, however, be induced in cockroaches by cutting the nerves2,3, by repeated implantation of suboesophageal ganglia which are out of phase4, and by ligature of the
