        Antagonistic interactions between garden yeasts and microfungal garden pathogens of leaf-cutting ants 

        Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp); Univ Texas Austin (Springer, 2009-10-01)
        We investigate the diversity of yeasts isolated in gardens of the leafcutter ant Atta texana. Repeated sampling of gardens from four nests over a 1-year time period showed that gardens contain a diverse assemblage of yeasts. ...

        A volatile semiochemical released by the fungus garden of leaf-cutting ants 

        Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp); Univ Oeste Paulista UNOESTE (Florida Entomological Soc, 2020-03-01)
        The symbiosis between fungi and leaf-cutting ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) has aroused the interest of researchers about the mechanism used by ants to select plants. The nutritional needs of the fungus garden, and the ...

        Metagenomics Reveals Diet-Specific Specialization of Bacterial Communities in Fungus Gardens of Grass- and Dicot-Cutter Ants 

        Univ Wisconsin; Rutgers State Univ; Chinese Acad Sci; Texas State Univ; Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp); Universidade de São Paulo (USP) (Frontiers Media Sa, 2020-09-24)
        Leaf-cutter ants in the genusAttaare dominant herbivores in the Neotropics. While most species ofAttacut dicots to incorporate into their fungus gardens, some species specialize on grasses. Here we examine the bacterial ...

        The first fossil fungus gardens of Isoptera: oldest evidence of symbiotic termite fungiculture (Miocene, Chad basin) 

        Duringer, Philippe; Schuster, Mathieu; Genise, Jorge Fernando; Likius, Andossa; Mackaye, Hassan Taisso; Vignaud, Patrick; Brunet, Michel (Springer Verlag Berlín, 2006-08-22)
        Higher termites of the subfamily Macrotermitinae (fungus-growing termites) are known to build fungus gardens where a symbiotic fungus (Termitomyces sp.) is cultivated. The fungus grows on a substrate called fungus comb, a ...

        Nest Architecture and Colony Growth of Atta bisphaerica Grass-Cutting Ants 

        Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp) (Mdpi, 2020-11-01)
        Simple Summary Atta bisphaerica grass-cutting ants build giant nests with hundreds or thousands of large chambers. Here, we assessed whether the total volume of fungus chambers and other nest parameters grow at close or ...

        Growth of populations and the fungus garden of Atta sexdens rubropilosa (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) response to foraged substrates 

        Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp); Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF) (California State University, 2008-01-01)
        The leaf-cutting ants forage diverse plants for cultivation of symbiotic fungus, which is a primary food source for larvae in the colony. Previous studies have suggested that continuous offering of a single vegetal species ...

        Growth of populations and the fungus garden of Atta sexdens rubropilosa (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) response to foraged substrates 

        Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP); Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (2008-11-19)
        The leaf-cutting ants forage diverse plants for cultivation of symbiotic fungus, which is a primary food source for larvae in the colony. Previous studies have suggested that continuous offering of a single vegetal species ...

        Leaf-cutter ant fungus gardens are biphasic mixed microbial bioreactors that convert plant biomass to polyols with biotechnological applications 

        Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp); Universidade de São Paulo (USP) (Amer Soc Microbiology, 2015-07-01)
        Leaf-cutter ants use plant matter to culture the obligate mutualistic basidiomycete Leucoagaricus gongylophorus. This fungus mediates ant nutrition on plant resources. Furthermore, other microbes living in the fungus garden ...

        Fungal communities in gardens of the leafcutter ant Atta cephalotes in forest and cabruca agrosystems of southern Bahia State (Brazil) 

        UESC - Santa Cruz State University; Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp) (2015-12-01)
        Leaf-cutting ants interact with several fungi in addition to the fungal symbiont they cultivate for food. Here, we assessed alien fungal communities in colonies of Atta cephalotes. Fungus garden fragments were sampled from ...

        What is the stimulus for the excavation of fungus chamber in leaf-cutting ants? 

        Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp) (Springer, 2015-02-01)
        This study investigated the stimulus for the excavation of fungus chamber by leaf-cutting ants (Atta sexdens rubropilosa) during nest building. Thus, it was hypothesized that the fungus garden or the brood is a stimulus ...
