Chroniodiplogaster formosiana sp. n. (Rhabditida: Diplogastridae) from Chinese populations of Odontotermes formosanus Shiraki (Isoptera: Termitidae).
Chroniodiplogaster formosiana sp. n. (Rhabditida: Diplogastridae) is described from a population of Odontotermes formosanus Shiraki (Isoptera: Termitidae) collected from dead (unidentified) wood at Dinghu Park, China. Characters of C. formosiana which separate it from C. aerivora (Cobb) are a longer tail, the presence of four micropapillae (quadriform condition), and the adjacent position of th...
متن کاملTrabulsiella odontotermitis sp. nov., isolated from the gut of the termite Odontotermes formosanus Shiraki.
Bacterial strains Eant 3-9(T) and Eant 3-3, isolated from the gut of the termite Odontotermes formosanus, were characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Cells of these organisms were Gram-negative, non-pigmented, rod-shaped, non-endospore-forming and facultatively anaerobic. Phenotypic, physiological and genetic characteristics of the two strains were highly similar. Phylogenetic ana...
متن کاملTrail Communication Regulated by Two Trail Pheromone Components in the Fungus-Growing Termite Odontotermes formosanus (Shiraki)
The eusocial termites are well accomplished in chemical communication, but how they achieve the communication using trace amount of no more than two pheromone components is mostly unknown. In this study, the foraging process and trail pheromones of the fungus-growing termite Odontotermes formosanus (Shiraki) were systematically studied and monitored in real-time using a combination of technique...
متن کاملEscaping and repairing behaviors of the termite Odontotermes formosanus (Blattodea: Termitidae) in response to disturbance
The escaping behavior of termites has been documented under laboratory conditions; however, no study has been conducted in a field setting due to the difficulty of observing natural behaviors inside wood or structures (e.g., nests, tunnels, etc.). The black-winged termite, Odontotermes formosanus (Shiraki), is a subterranean macrotermitine species which builds extensive mud tubes on tree trunks...
متن کاملCharacterization of Head Transcriptome and Analysis of Gene Expression Involved in Caste Differentiation and Aggression in Odontotermes formosanus (Shiraki)
BACKGROUND The subterranean termite Odontotermes formosanus (Shiraki) is a serious insect pest of trees and dams in China. To date, very little is known about genomic or transcriptomic data for caste differentiation and aggression in O. formosanus. Hence, studies on transcriptome and gene expression profiling are helpful to better understand molecular basis underlying caste differentiation and ...
