白蚁分子生物学研究进展 　　Abstract Termites are dangerous social insects. Different subjects of scienceshave been involved in establishment of safe and effective control methods agains t termites. Molecular biology has played an important role in termite research.DNA sequence analysis has been used to identify and classify termite populations , and the most commonly used markers are mitochondrial genes. Genetic engineerin g technology has been successfully introduced to establish the genetically impro ved bacteria from termite intestines for termite control. Different functional g enes, such as Hexameri
