Description

Proteins are known to be social interaction signals in many species in the animal kingdom. The aim of this project is to explore the potential role of cuticular polar compounds in reproductive recognition on termites. Cuticular polar fractions were extracted from reproductives and workers. These extracts were used for molecular profiling, top-down proteomics and tested in behavioral bioassays to measure behavioral response in termite.
