• Feeding groups, lifetypes and the global ecology of termites (2001, unknown): “All families of termites have dominant populations of flagellate celulloytic protozoa in their guts (Inoue et al. 2000) except for the most phylogenetically apical and speciose family, the Termitidae, in which the flagellates have been lost and fungi and prokaryotes (in Macrotermitinae) or…”
• Origin of termite eusociality: trophallaxis integrates the social, nutritional, and microbial environments (2015, background): “…with gut symbionts It is unchallenged dogma that neither Cryptocercus nor OP termites can live without intestinal symbionts to metabolise and upgrade their cellulose-based, nitrogen-poor diet (Cleveland et al., 1934; Inoue et al., 2000; Hongoh, 2010; Watanabe & Tokuda, 2010; Bignell, 2011).”
• Role of the Termite Gut Microbiota in Symbiotic Digestion (2010, background): “2004), others may thrive on bacteria or soluble substrates, in a similar fashion to some smaller parabasalid species (Inoue et al. 2000; Brugerolle and Radek 2006).”
• Symbiotic Protozoa of Termites (2006, background): “Transmission between nest mates seems to be responsible for the fact that protist assemblage composition is often mirrored by termite phylogeny (Inoue et al. 2000).”
• Bacterial microbiota associated with ants of the genus Tetraponera (2007, background): “In termites, symbionts of the gut flora are passed on between generations in that way (Inoue et al., 2000).”
• Termite Phylogenetics and Co-cladogenesis with Symbionts (2010, background): “With the exception of the Termitidae, members of all other termite families and Cryptocercus harbour unique genera of parabasalid and oxymonad flagellates, found nowhere else in nature (Cleveland et al. 1934; Inoue et al. 2000).”
