20The caste system of termites is an example of phenotypic plasticity. The castes differ not only 21 in morphology and physiology, but also in behavior. As most of their behaviors within 22 colonies involve nestmates, it is difficult to extract innate differences among castes. In this 23 study, we focused on movement patterns of isolated individuals of Hodotermopsis sjostedti. 24
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
