Outline of Final Research Achievements

The study of how behavioral traits controlled by organismal movement affect fitness was conducted using insects as material. Behaviors targeted were mainly predator-prey strategies, predation strategies, movement-dispersal strategies, and reproductive and mating strategies. The target organisms were mainly insects of the order Coleoptera. In particular, we conducted artificial selection experiments for walking and immobility among the movement traits of Tribolium beetles, and examined correlation responses among established breeding lines. The results revealed that a group of genes in the tyrosine metabolism system mediated by dopamine is involved in the movement of the organism.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

生物の対捕食者戦略である死んだふりの適応と進化の仕組みについては、ダーウィン以降、科学的に証明されてこなかった。この研究では、甲虫類の死んだふり行動について、古典的な育種実験と行動観察に加えて、トランスクリプトーム解析によって形質に関わる遺伝子群を明らかにできた。その結果、死んだふりにはチロシン代謝系に含まれるドーパミン関連遺伝子が大きく関与していることが世界に先駆けて明らかとなった。一連の研究は、生物の対捕食戦略の教科書にも掲載され、死んだふりという行動を対捕食者戦略の科学として位置付ける役割を果たした。
