Atta (ant)
''Atta'' is a genus of ant, ants of the Neotropical realm belonging to the ant subfamily Myrmicinae. In English often the species are known as leafcutter ants, though that name is shared with members of the genus ''Acromyrmex''. Workers of ''Atta'' ants gather plant material from the ant colony, colony's local area, carry the plant parts into the colony's underground chambers, and there fungus grows on it. All the nest's ants feed on that fungus, not the plant material they collect. Leafcutters don't sting, thus inject no venom, although they are known as strong biters. Life Cycle It's unclear how many species the genus ''Atta'' comprises. GBIF lists over 60 -- though many of those name are regarded as "doubtful" -- while the Catalogue of Life lists only 16. As with all ants, ''Atta'' species undergo complete metamorphosis in which each individual ant hatches from an egg as a larva, the larva grows until it forms a pupa, from which later emerges an adult ant. Among adults le ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Atta Flour
Atta is a type of wheat flour, originally from the Indian subcontinent, used to make flatbreads. It is the most widespread flour in the Indian subcontinent. Properties Whole common wheat ('' Triticum aestivum'') is generally used to make atta; it has a high gluten content, which provides elasticity, so the dough made out of atta flour is strong and can be rolled into thin sheets. The word "whole" is used to describe atta as it includes every component of the grain, meaning the bran, germ and the endosperm. Atta was traditionally ground in the home on a stone chakki mill. This is useful when using a tandoor, where the flatbread is stuck to the inside of the oven, and also makes chapatis softer as the dough absorbs more water. Atta is also produced in industrial flour mills.
