Dose-Dependent Effects of a Gut-Derived Bacillus on Survival and Feeding in a Neotropical Termite
DiversityThe ecological success of termites is closely linked to their associations with gut microbial communities, yet these interactions may also entail potential fitness costs. The effects of gut-associated bacteria on host performance remain poorly understood.

Termite Communities in Sugarcane Plantations in Southeastern Brazil: an Ecological Approach
EntomoBrasilis, 2015 Termites are key components of soil fauna, playing an essential role in organic matter decomposition and nutrient cycling. However, they can cause significant economic losses in commercial plantations, such as sugar cane.

Termite (Insecta, Isoptera) fauna from natural parks of the northeast region of Argentina
Scientia Agricola, 2004 The knowledge of insect biodiversity in natural areas of Argentina is limited, and termites are among the understudied taxa. In order to assess the diversity of Isoptera in some protected areas of the country, termite sampling within three National Parks
