Outline of Final Research Achievements

As a basic tool to analyze the primary factor inducing the population crash of Aphidius colemani, we developed the method of species identification using DNA sequences for 11 species of primary parasitoids and eight species of secondary parasitoids. Comparison of species composition of secondary parasitoids among A. colemani and domestic primary parasitoids revealed that A. colemani can escape from only one species of secondary parasitoids, while Ephedrus nacheri and Diaeretiella rapae can escape from three and two species, respectively. Intrinsic rate of population growth of A. colemani is higher than domestic species, but A. colemani is inferior to some of domestic species when they compete for identical host individuals. Actually, A. colemani and domestic species coexisted in greenhouses for several months. Therefore, secondary parasitoids can be the primary factor inducing the population crash of A. colemani.
