Geological Journal, EarlyView.The composition of intrusive rocks suggests that the magma was likely generated in a subduction‐related setting. The arc crustal thickness in the Phnom Sro Ngam and Halo Prospects was probably < 40 km during emplacement. Zircon U–Pb age range indicates a correlation with Loei Fold Belt magmatic activity.

Miombo woodland termite mounds: resource islands for small vertebrates? [PDF]
, 2003 Macrotermes mounds are a significant feature of African woodland landscape, contributing to habitat heterogeneity. The mounds are massive, often many centuries old, and support dense vegetation and a suite of woody plant species scarce in surrounding ...

The role of logistic constraints on termite construction of chambers and tunnels
, 2005 In previous models of the building behaviour of termites, physical and logistic constraints that limit the movement of termites andpheromones have been neglected. Here, we present an individual-based mo del of termite construction that includes idealized

UJI PILIH MAKANAN RAYAP KAYU KERING CRYPTOTERMES CYNOCEPHALUS LIGHT
Jurnal Penelitian Hasil Hutan (Journal of Forest Products Research), 2017 The experiment was carried out to study the role of lignin as dry wood termite Cryptotermes cynocephalus Light food. The C. cynocephalus termite was given lignin and cellulose food, separately or both in the test petridish. These research conclude that :

Advances in research on autophagy in the maintenance of insect–microbe symbiosis
New Plant Protection, EarlyView.Autophagy plays a dual regulatory role in insect–microbe symbiotic relationships. Beneficial symbiotic bacteria in insects participate in nutrient exchange via the TOR pathway, whereas pathogenic microbes induce immune defense through the AMPK pathway. Autophagy‐related genes regulate development and pathogen clearance during this process.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Avocados are a multibillion‐dollar global commodity, but their growing export market pressures local farmers to abandon local fruit tree diversity in favor of commercial cultivar production. Interviews with rural avocado farmers and households from the Southern Mexican Highlands, Pacific Coastal Honduras, and Western Nicaragua, as well as the genetic ...

The functional role of ants in no‐till cropping systems
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Ants provide valuable ecosystem services in tropical agriculture, but their roles in temperate row crops remain poorly understood. Conservation practices such as no‐till farming and cover cropping support ant communities that contribute to pest suppression, weed seed removal, and soil quality, which can increase crop productivity.

Impact of Environmental Microparticles on Insect Olfaction
Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Terrestrial insects underpin key ecosystem services, including pollination, herbivory regulation, decomposition, nutrient cycling, and disease control. These functions depend on chemical communication that guides insects to food, mates, hosts, shelters, and oviposition sites while helping them avoid threats.
