  • Here, the authors produce an updated termite classification with genomic scale analyses, highlighting thirteen family-level lineages and resilience of their classification to future termite research.

  • The vibroacoustic and chemical alarm communication in the wood roach Cryptocercus and in 20 termite species are studied to reveal that the Neoisoptera species have developed the most sophisticated communication system, which could contribute towards their ecological success.

  • Séité, Harrison, et al. investigate the mechanisms underlying long lifespan in queens and kings of the highly social termite Macrotermes natalensis. Using transcriptomics, lipidomics and metabolomics, this study shows that several aging-related processes are reduced in the fat bodies of these reproductives and that an upregulated insulin-like peptide, Ilp9, does not lead to deleterious fat storage in old queens, while simple sugars dominate in their hemolymph.

  • Through metagenomics and metatranscriptomics analyses, Calusinska et al. investigate the adaptation of the gut microbiome of the termite Cortaritermes sp. to a diet of Miscanthus grass. This work is a starting point for the identification of lignocellulose-degradation enzymes for potential biotechnology applications.
