Pathogenicity of filamentous fungi towards Atta sexdens rubropilosa (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)
(2022-04-01)
In the Neotropics, leaf-cutting ants are pests of great importance to various crops. The natural defenses and complexity of these ants reduce the impact of potentially useful pathogens for biological control. Furthermore, ...
Astilbin toxicity to leaf-cutting ant Atta sexdens rubropilosa (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)
(2005-04-18)
The toxicity of astilbin, isolated from Dimorphandra mollis, was tested in laboratory ingestion bioassays for the leaf-cutting ant Atta sexdens rubropilosa Forel. Worker ants that were fed an artificial diet daily to which ...
Starch metabolism in Leucoagaricus gongylophorus, the symbiotic fungus of leaf-cutting ants
(Elsevier B.V., 2006-01-01)
Leucoagaricus gongylophorus, the symbiotic fungus of the leaf-cutting ants, degrades starch, this degradation being supposed to occur in the plant material which leafcutters forage to the nests, generating most of the ...

Synthetic amides toxic to the leaf-cutting ant Atta sexdens rubropilosa L. and its symbiotic fungus
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2006-02-01)
1 Nine synthetic amides similar to natural N-piperidine-3-(4,5-methylenedioxyphenyl)-2-(E)-propenainide and N-pyrrolidine-3-(4,5-methylenedyoxiphenyl)2-(E)-propenamide were synthesized and identified by their spectroscopic ...
