Colony and population genetic structure of the Formosan subterranean termite, Coptotermes formosanus, in Japan.

Molecular ecology - 1 Oct 2003

Vargo Edward L, Husseneder Claudia, Grace J Kenneth

Abstract excerpt

Subterranean termites have unusual plasticity in their breeding systems. As a result of their cryptic foraging and nesting habits, detailed information on the numbers and types of reproductive individuals in colonies has been difficult to obtain. In this study, we used microsatellite markers to i...
