DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Rebeca Rosengaus\nAbstract: Termites have had a long c
 o-evolutionary history with prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbes. The assoc
 iation of these microbes spans the symbiotic continuum from mutualistic to
  pathogenic interactions. Two phenomena by which termites achieve colony-w
 ide immunocompetence are described. First\, termites appear to benefit fro
 m symbiont-mediated social immunity where mutualistic gut microbes produce
  multiple functional antifungal ?-1\,3-glucanases which are shared among t
 ermite nestmates via proctodeal exchanges. Second\, immunocompetence at th
 e colony-level may be also achieved through transgenerational immunity whe
 re parents anticipate the needs of their offspring based on their own immu
 ne state. These two strategies may ultimately reduce risks of infection at
  both the individual- and colony-levels.
