This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Termite sociality is commonly assumed to be similar to ants when in fact, termites inhabit a wide array of niche. Variation in the life history of termites is most evident in nest types, and termites display adaptive behaviors most appropriate to the ecological challenges associated with their nesting habit. Termite nest types are categorized into one-piece, the drywood and dampwood termites colonizing a single wooden piece, intermediates, the subterranean termites colonizing multiple resources via underground tunnels, and separate, the higher termites that include the builders of elaborate mounds. Foraging behaviors of termites, which occurs in the phases of discovery, quality assessment, and recruitment, and are impacted by different nest habits of termites. Various mechanisms of resource quality assessment have been observed in one-piece termites, as a colony consumes a single resource colonized by the founding reproductive. In contrast, due to the need to relocate resources to a centralized nest, separate nest types have developed efficient recruitment mechanisms. Intermediate nest type termites construct tunnels to forage and must efficiently discover resources, as well as have mechanisms to distribute nestmates among feeding sites. Numerous cues associated with the foraging behaviors of subterranean termites have been identified, yet how these mechanisms are integrated into a system of effective foraging strategy has not been considered. In particular, several cues suggested to mediate search patterns are likely involved in later stages of settlement at resources instead. Therefore, further investigations are necessary to determine what cues subterranean termites use to initially discover food resources. The first objective was to investigate termite response to distant odors from wood and nestmates and determine whether this behavioral response was due to attraction or arrestment. The response of Reticulitermes flavipes (Kollar) workers to wood and nestmates was measured using choice olfactometers that either allowed or prohibited departure from the treatments. Significant response to both wood and nestmates in the no-exit olfactometer indicated a direct orientation to cues and therefore attraction. In addition, the response to wood alone indicated mediation by volatile odors.

Book Synopsis Orphaning in the Eastern Subterranean Termite, Reticulitermes Flavipes (Kollar) (isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) by : Jerri Dawn Dombrowski
Download or read book Orphaning in the Eastern Subterranean Termite, Reticulitermes Flavipes (Kollar) (isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) written by Jerri Dawn Dombrowski and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Reticulitermes flavipes laboratory colonies survived orphaning by producing sexually functional neotenic reproductives. The [female] : [male] neotenic ratio in orphaned colonies was 2:1 after 10-11 months (N =22 colonies) and 6:1 after 16-17 months (N = 21 colonies). The majority of neotenics in orphaned colonies were of the ergatoid form, although a much greater percentage of nymphoid reproductives were found at the 16-17 month re-census than the 10-11 month re-census. Mortality was high for both orphaned and control colonies (in which the primary reproductive pair was retained) at both re-census times, but all surviving colonies showed at least a 400% increase in total colony size (excluding eggs and reproductives) when compared to initial colony size. Egg development (oogenesis) of all Reticulitermes flavipes female reproductives in laboratory colonies was assessed by means of trypan blue dye uptake in the middle growth region of ovarioles (evidence of vitellogenesis) and/or the production of terminal oocytes >̲ 0.2 mm in length. Oogenic activity was evident in 94% of the neotenic females (N(ergatoid) = 77, N(nymphoid) = 1) found in colonies 10-11 months after orphaning and in 99% of the neotenic females (N(ergatoid) = 102, N(nymphoid) = 18) found in colonies 16-17 months after orphaning. In control colonies of both time treatments, 100% of the primary reproductives (N(10-11 month) = 5, N (16-17 month) = 9) displayed evidence of egg development.. Results obtained from the laboratory colonies were compared with R. flavipes neotenic females found in a population occupying a severed tree stump. This wild population contained more male neotenics (N = 430) than female neotenics (N =316). A total of 33 nymphoid females was dissected, and all of these neotenics were undergoing oogenesis. It can be assumed with 95% confidence that at least 288 (91%) of the 316 female neotenics were also undergoing oogenesis.
Book Synopsis Biology of Termites: a Modern Synthesis by : David Edward Bignell
Download or read book Biology of Termites: a Modern Synthesis written by David Edward Bignell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-10-20 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biology of Termites, a Modern Synthesis brings together the major advances in termite biology, phylogenetics, social evolution and biogeography. In this new volume, David Bignell, Yves Roisin and Nathan Lo have brought together leading experts on termite taxonomy, behaviour, genetics, caste differentiation, physiology, microbiology, mound architecture, biogeography and control. Very strong evolutionary and developmental themes run through the individual chapters, fed by new data streams from molecular sequencing, and for the first time it is possible to compare the social organisation of termites with that of the social Hymenoptera, focusing on caste determination, population genetics, cooperative behaviour, nest hygiene and symbioses with microorganisms. New chapters have been added on termite pheromones, termites as pests of agriculture and on destructive invasive species.
Book Synopsis Social Recognition in Invertebrates by : Laura Aquiloni
Download or read book Social Recognition in Invertebrates written by Laura Aquiloni and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-05-29 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses a wide range of case studies from different invertebrate taxa to describe the numerous forms of social recognition occurring in this large group of animals and traces the evolution of this cognitive ability. The authors provide several examples of direct (i.e. the target of recognition is a conspecific) and indirect recognition (i.e. recognition of a reliable proxy rather than an individual, such as a den or a substrate) and discuss cases of familiar recognition (i.e. an animal remembers a conspecific but cannot tell what class it comes from or recognize its identity). Class-level recognition (i.e. an animal assigns a conspecific to an appropriate class of animals), and true individual recognition (i.e. an animal both identifies and recognizes a conspecific on an individual basis) are also addressed.
