The Influence of Allogrooming Behavior on Individual Innate Immunity in the Subterranean Termite Reticulitermes chinensis (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae)

Journal of Insect Science, 2019
Insect societies have evolved a series of disease defenses against pathogens, including social sanitary behavior and individual innate immunity. However, whether sanitary behavior can affect individual innate immunity remains unknown.

Discriminant Analysis as a Tool for Detecting the Acoustic Signals of Termites Coptotermes Curvignathus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae)

International Journal of Technology, 2018
Various methods for termite detection have been developed, one of which is purely based on their acoustic signals. However, this method has a weakness, as it is difficult to separate the signals generated by the termites from noise in the environment.

FEEDING PREFERENCE OF SUBTERRANEAN TERMITES FOR FOREST SPECIES ASSOCIATED OR NOT A WOOD-DECAYING FUNGI

Floresta e Ambiente, 2023
This study was performed with the aim of determining the “natural” wood preferences of subterranean termites (Isoptera) in a field feeding experiment, giving a choice between a control (Pinus sp.) and test woods: three species of Eucalyptus.
