Termite Reproduction

Termite Reproduction is a biological process defining the mechanism by which termite colonies produce new reproductive individuals through the differentiation of nymphs into alates, supplementary reproductives, or neotenics, thereby ensuring colony propagation, genetic diversity, and social structure maintenance within the eusocial insect order Blattodea.
