Research Abstract |
We have found a root cause of insect pests(e. g., scolytine and platypodine beetles, gall midges, lace bugs), which cause tree decline in forests and orchards etc. in the world including Japan and US, on comparison of ecological and genetic background. Especially, we have examined a biological mechanism in insect-microbe symbiosis, insect attack patterns in host trees and insect-vectoring fungus pathogenicity to them.
