Low-insecticide Input Application Strategies For Managing Subterranean Termite (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) Infestations
Brian T. Forschler | Full Paper | 2008

Twenty-six treatments were conducted using an integrated management approach to removing subterranean termite infestations from structures on the University of Georgia, Athens, GA, USA campus. Termite infestations were identified by building occupants followed by an inspection, development of an act...

GENETIC VARIATION and GENE FLOW of COPTOTERMES FORMOSANUS (ISOPTERA: RHINOTERMITIDAE) in ATLANTA, GEORGIA

The purpose of this research was to evaluate the genetic variation and gene flow of Coptotermes formosanus(Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) in the Atlanta, Georgia, metropolitan area using multi-locus DNA markers. Previous research from this lab using maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA sequence marker...

SUBTERRANEAN TERMITE MOVEMENTS and RELATIONSHIPS OVER TIME: GENETIC CHARACTERIZATION of a FIELD SITE

The purpose of this study was to examine the relatedness of Reticulitermes flavipes subterranean termites using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and simple sequence repeat (SSR) DNA fingerprints and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence from individual termites collected at four separate f...

ANTS AND SUBTERRANEAN TERMITES IN THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT: THE TERMINOLOGY OF POPULATION MANAGEMENT CONTROL TACTICS

Ants and subterranean termites are economically important insect pests in the urban environment. Managing populations of these pests through bait-toxicant control tactics is a viable option that requires a thorough understanding of their biology. The terminology used in describing a bait-toxicant co...
