| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Polyembryony is a unique style of development in which many embryos are clonally produced from a single egg. To date, the genetic mechanisms underlying polyembryogenesis is not clear. In the polyembryonic parasitoid, more than 2000 adults are produced from a single egg. The transcriptome analysis at the onset of polyembryogenesis or the induction of polyembryogenesis of this parasitoid showed many differentially expressed genes, such as cell cycle, cellular adherence, metabolism, and several novel genes.
