Queen and king recognition in the subterranean termite, Reticulitermes flavipes: Evidence for royal recognition pheromones
PLOS ONE, 14(5), e0209810.
Ed(s): F. Nascimento
MeSH headings : Animals; Behavior, Animal; Female; Isoptera / physiology; Male; Pheromones / metabolism; Photoperiod; Recognition, Psychology; Reproduction
TL;DR:
The striking response to reproductives and their cuticular extracts suggests that royal-specific cuticular compounds act as recognition pheromones and that shaking behavior is a clear and measurable queen and king recognition response in this termite species.
