摘要: General characteristics of ambrosia fungus-beetle mutualism are described and recent trends for innovative research briefly indicated. Techniques to locate, collect, transport, maintain, isolate, study fungi beetles in the field vitro reviewed detail. A synthetic basal medium growing is described; this should enable researchers investigate nutrition enzymology both symbionts.
