The complete mitogenome of the Formosan termite, Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki

Insectes Sociaux, 2011
The Formosan termite Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki is a well-known invasive pest that causes severe damage to wooden structures in many parts of the world. Although several studies examined its phylogeographic patterns using a few mitochondrial genes, the phylogenetic relationships among C.

Characterization of a laccase from a wood‐feeding termite, Coptotermes formosanus

Insect Science, 2016
AbstractCoptotermes formosanus Shiraki is a wood‐feeding termite which secretes a series of lignolytic and cellulolytic enzymes for woody biomass degradation. However, the lignin modification mechanism in the termite is largely elusive, and the characteristics of most lignolytic enzymes in termites remain unknown.

Morphology and ultrastructure of the antennal chemoreceptors and mechanoreceptors of worker Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki

Cell And Tissue Research, 1976
Three types of setae were found on the antenna of workers of C. formosanus. Sensilla basiconica function as chemoreceptors. They are non-socketed, with fixed plate base, thin walled, and perforated. Pore tubules are contained within the cuticular pores of s. basiconica.

Repellency and toxicity of nootkatone to Coptotermes formosanus

2001
Nootkatone, one of over 300 components of vetiver oil, is a mildly pungent sesquiterpene ketone with a distinctive grapefruit flavor, largely responsible for vetiver oil unique aroma. As part of our research on natural products efficacy against Formosan subterranean termite, the major wood pest in the USA, previous experiments showed that vetiver oil ...

Behavioral effects of fipronil and imidacloprid on Coptotermes formosanus

2002
Fipronil and imidacloprid are non-repellant insecticides that work via direct contact and termite-to-termite transmission. This secondary form of transmission is more effective if termitescontinue functioning normally after they come in contact with the chemical.
