Distinct chemical blends produced by different reproductive castes in the subterranean termite Reticulitermes flavipes
Abstract The production of royal pheromones by reproductives (queens and kings) enables social insect colonies to allocate individuals into reproductive and non-reproductive roles. In many termite species, nestmates can develop into neotenics when the primary king or queen dies, which then inhibit t...
