Research Abstract |
I found that starvation induced by molting hormone is the main cause of reduction of the amount of symbiotic bacteria in hemipteran insects. Also I succeeded in obtaining many novel genes involved in insect symbiosis by the construction of EST database and quantitative expression analysis. Moreover, I established RNAi method for stinkbug insects. Identification of novel symbiosis-associated genes and establishment of functional analysis will allow significant advance in analysis of the molecular mechanisms of host-symbiont crosstalk.
