对4种蚂蚁共生真菌进行了配对培养试验和生产力估算。在配对培养物中未观察到不同分离株之间的相互作用。在所有分离株之间记录了生产率的显著差异。真菌生产力和成熟的殖民地工人人口的共生蚂蚁物种之间存在很强的相关性。
Paired-culture tests and productivity estimates were made on isolates of fungal symbionts from four species of attine ants. No interactions between different isolates in paired-cultures were observed. Significant differences in productivity were recorded between all isolates. A strong correlation was found between fungal productivity and mature colony worker population of the respective symbiotic ant species.
