Electromagnetic Waves as Non-destructive Method to Control Subterranean Termites Coptotermes Curvignathus Holmgren and Coptotermes Formosanus Shiraki

open access: yesProcedia Environmental Sciences, 2013
AbstractThe objective of the study is to develop non destructive methods using electromagnetic waves apparatus to control subterranean termites Coptotermes curvignathus Holmgren and Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki and to evaluate the safety of the apparatus to human. The frequency of electromagnetic waves used in this research were 30 Hz∼300 Hz, 0.3 KHz∼

The Microbiome Within a Microbe: Rethinking Blastocystis Biology

open access: yesJournal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Blastocystis spp., one of the most prevalent microeukaryotes in the human gut, has long puzzled researchers with its ambiguous role in health and disease. Decades‐old microscopy studies reported bacterial‐ and viral‐like particles within Blastocystis spp. cells, but these findings have been mainly overlooked.

Natural Pesticides in Crop Protection: Comparative Advantages, Ecological Risks, and Future Directions

open access: yesJournal of Chemistry, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Although synthetic pesticides have long been used to protect crops, their widespread use has led to significant health and environmental problems, including ecological contamination, resistant pest populations, and hazardous residues in food. These restrictions have sparked interest in natural pesticides (NPs), particularly the secondary metabolites of

Individual Behavior of Workers of the Formosan Subterranean Termite (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) on Consecutive Days of Tunnel Construction

open access: yesInsects, 2012
This study examines the individual behavior of workers of the Formosan subterranean termite, Coptotermes formosanus Shirkai, on two consecutive days of tunnel construction. In each trial, a group of 30 termite workers was observed continuously during the

Comparative Expression Analysis of Olfactory Receptor Genes Among Individuals With Soldier and Worker Caste Differentiation Fates in Termites

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
We investigated the role of chemosensory gene expression in caste differentiation of the damp‐wood termite Zootermopsis nevadensis. Gene expression analyses revealed that third‐instar larvae destined to become workers exhibited significantly higher expression of key olfactory receptor genes in their antennae, suggesting that differences in chemosensory

Lipid Components of Coptotermes formosanus (a Sort of Termites)

open access: yesJournal of Japan Oil Chemists' Society, 1986
The fatty components of each caste of Coptotermes formosanus (worker, soldier, alate and larva of alate) were studied for determination of fatty and sterol composition. The major fatty acid components of all samples were 18 : 1, 16 : 0 and 18 : 0. But, 22.0 and 24 : 0 as fatty acids were detected in the fatty components of soldier. 17 : 0 and 17 : 1 as
