Research Abstract

It was revealed that chlorogenic acid and quercetin-3-O-glucoseide, which are identified as parts of feeding stimulants for larva of Graphium sarpedon nipponum, displayed oviposition stimulant for adult female butterflies. Results proved that the chemical contained in the host plants deeply took part in co-evolution between swallowtail butterflies and their host plants.
