Ability of primary and secondary reproductives to inhibit the development of neotenics in Kalotermes flavicollis (Isoptera: Kalotermitidae)

The inhibitory potential of primary and secondary reproductives was studied using half-orphaned colonies of Kalotermes flavicollis. Both primary and secondary reproductives (neotenics) were equally effective in inhibiting the development of replacement reproductives. Single females totally inhibited...
