Biology of Termites, a Modern Synthesis brings together the major
advances in termite biology, phylogenetics, social evolution and
biogeography. In this new volume, David Bignell, Yves Roisin and
Nathan Lo have brought together leading experts on termite
taxonomy, behaviour, genetics, caste differentiation, physiology,
microbiology, mound architecture, biogeography and control. Very
strong evolutionary and developmental themes run through the
individual chapters, fed by new data streams from molecular
sequencing, and for the first time it is possible to compare the
social organisation of termites with that of the social
Hymenoptera, focusing on caste determination, population genetics,
cooperative behaviour, nest hygiene and symbioses with
microorganisms. New chapters have been added on termite pheromones,
termites as pests of agriculture and on destructive invasive
species.
