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 ...
