【摘要】 本试验主要研究黄肢散白蚁 Reticulitermes flaviceps 群体中幼蚁、若蚁与补充型形成的关系。在室内饲养的黄肢散白蚁,若群体仅由工蚁及兵蚁组成,群体只能产生无翅补充型。在群体中加入若蚁,这时,群体可出现短翅及无翅两种类型的补充型。短翅型来自若蚁;无翅型来自工蚁。短翅补充型出现明显早于无翅补充型。当群体由工蚁、兵蚁及幼蚁组成,幼蚁可转化成若蚁,然后再转化成有翅补充型。但其短翅补充型的产生比无翅补充型的产生明显推迟。拥有若蚁的群体,补充型产卵较多,卵的孵化率也较高。更多还原

【Abstract】 The experiments on the formation of substitutes of Reticulitermes flaviceps inrelation to larvae and nymphs were made.The data showed that only apterous ne-otenics could be produced if orphaned colonies consisted of workers and soldiers.If orphaned colonies consisted of 76% of workers,20% of nymphs and 4% of sol-diers,colonies produced brachypterous neotenics which derived from nymphs within27-33 days,and apterous neotenics which derived from workers within 66-68 days.Brachy pterous neotenics were also formed from some of the colonies which contained76% of workers,20% of larvae and 4% of soldiers.Replacement reproductives ina colony containing nymphs deposited more eggs than the replacement reproductivesin a colony without nymphs.更多还原
