Research Abstract

(1)落葉広葉樹林の生産性は種多様性が高いほど大きく、種多様性は葉群構造や土壌中の窒素量にも影響し、結果的に林床草本群集やショウジョウバエ群集の多様性にも影響することが明らかとなった。また、理論研究により、生物群集の多様性は、生息環境の撹乱と生物種の分散能力の大小により影響を受けることを明らかにした。
(2)陸上生態系における昆虫の種多様性を決定する要因について、植物の形質の変化を介した食物関係を通さない間接的な相互作用の重要性を指摘し、それを評価するための手段として相互作用網アプローチを提唱した。温帯におけるヤナギと熱帯におけるマカランガについて、複数の相互関係が植物の形質の変化を通して相互に結びつけられていることを明らかにした。相互作用網の理論モデルの構築に着手した。
(3)シンバイオトロンの試運転を開始した。アクアトロンを用いて、動・植物プランクトンの2者系において、光・栄養塩バランスが食物連鎖構造(個対数と化学組成)を変えることを明らかにした。また、ターマイトロンを用いて、土壌中の物質循環機能を担う水の動きを知るために水素、酸素の同位体比の測定を開始した。
(4)多様性の創出の基礎となる遺伝子の変異は、遺伝子複製各過程で塩基配列に依存して起こることを示した。植物ウイルスが新たな宿主への感染能を細胞間移行蛋白の変異によって獲得する過程の詳細を明らかにした。植物の遺伝子発現の光環境応答には糖濃度センサーが関与していることを明らかにした。ミツバチ(Apis cerana japonica)のperiod geneのクローニングに成功し、2種類のspliced variantを得た。魚類の適応放散の生理的要因となりうる視物質の比較分子生物学を推進した。
(5)集水域における森林、草原、湖沼生態系の機能と生物多様性の関係を明らかにする目的で、熱帯林、温帯林、温帯湖沼(琵琶湖)、バイカル湖、モンゴル草原において調査を実行した。調査から、生態系の特性を明らかにし、さらに各生態系の人為攪乱への応答を予想するための基礎的知見を得た。
(6)BOY-DIWPA用調査マニュアルのテスト版を出版し、各国のサイト候補地を決めた。アリ学ネットワーク(ANeT)の第2回ワークショップをマレーシアサバ大学で開催し、組織体制を確立した(参加国は10カ国)。IBOYの重要サイトの一つであるランビル国立公園の維管束植物相解明のため標本調査が進展した。
