Research Abstract |
Mechanisms of UV -damage and photoreactivation, effects of carotenoids on UV tolerance, and the relationship between diapause induction and change in metabolism of carotenoids were studied in spider mites. As a result, the reciprocity between intensity and irradiation time in UV damage and function of photoreactivation were verified. With regard to the change of pigmentation in diapausing adult females, we found that reproductive diapause and pigmentation were separable phenomena. On the other hand, the effects of carotenoid composition on UV tolerance remained unclear.
