Diversity and functional analysis of gut microbiota reveal ecological adaptations in the inquilinism of Ancistrotermes dimorphus and its host Macrotermes barneyi
Inquilinism describes an interesting interspecific interaction in termite ecosystems wherein an inquiline species inhabits the host’s nest structure. In this context, gut microbiota play a crucial role in mediating the ecological relationship. The facultative inquiline Ancistrotermes dimorphus (Term...
