CHEMICAL COMMUNICATION NETWORK IN ECOSYSTEM : CASE STUDY IN A TRITROPHIC SYSTEM CONSISTING OF PLANTS,HERBIVORES AND CARNIVORES-

(A)在印度斑潜蝇、菜粉蝶和团冠蝶的三栖系统中，我们发现雌性蝴蝶偏爱未被寄生的植物，并避开被同种寄生的植物。其中一个可能的原因是，被侵扰的植物是敌人的密集空间。研究结果发表在《应用昆虫学与动物学》杂志上。(B)我们阐明了草食动物诱导的挥发物在本地捕食性叶螨Amblyseius emersleyi觅食行为中的作用。研究结果发表在《应用昆虫学与动物学》杂志上。(C)我们在《实验与应用螨学》杂志上总结了由植物、蜘蛛和捕食性螨类组成的三营养相互作用。(D)我们在《生物防治》杂志上总结了由植物、幼虫和寄生蜂组成的三营养相互作用。(E)我们总结了食肉动物的学习，并在日文期刊《Kontyuto Shizen》上发表了手稿。

(A) In tritrophic systems of Rorippa indica, Pieris rapae and C.glomerata, we found that female butterflies preferred uninfested plants and avoid the plants infested by conspecifics. One of the possible reason for this is that the infested plants are enemy dense space. The results were in press in journal of Applied Entomology and Zoology.(B) We clarified the function of herbivore-induced volatiles in the foraging behavior of native predatory mites Amblyseius womersleyi. The results were published in the journal of Applied Entomology and Zoology.(C) We summarized the tritrophic interactions consisting of plants, spider mites and predatory mites in the journal of Experimental and Applied Acarology.(D) We summarized the tritrophic interactions consisting of plants, caterpiller and parasitic wasps in the journal of Biological Control.(E) We summarized the learning of carnivores and published the manuscript in the journal of "Kontyuu to Shizen" (in Japanese)
