A research article led by Dr. Ulugbek Togaev, Professor at the Engineering School of Central Asian University, has been published in Frontiers in Insect Science, a Q1 international peer-reviewed journal.
The article, titled "Comparative metagenomic analysis of gut microbiota in Anacanthotermes turkestanicus and A. ahngerianus reveals diet- and habitat-driven functional divergence," presents the first comparative metagenomic analysis of the gut microbiota of two termite species from Uzbekistan.
The study demonstrates how diet and habitat shape the diversity and functional characteristics of gut microbial communities. The findings contribute to a better understanding of termite biology, microbial ecology, and insect–microbe interactions, providing a foundation for future research in these areas.
This publication reflects Central Asian University's continued focus on advancing scientific research and international collaboration.
