摘要: The influence of the reproductives on soldier production was studied in two species higher termites,Nasutitermes lujae (Nasutitermitinae) andCubitermes fungifaber (Termitinae). In both species, royal pair has a stimulatory production. molts are to three times more numerous when workers reared with reproductives. InN. lujae, king and queen have an apparently equal influence. act induction orientation toward type. It can be now claimed that inN. which existence inhibitory pheromone recently evidenced, proportion soldiers results from balance between influences soldiers. hypothetical nature is discussed.
