Female accessory glands of Adoxophyes honmai contain elicitor inducing tea leaves to arrest the egg-larval parasitoid, Ascogaster reticulata
Plants exhibit various defense mechanisms against pathogens and herbivores, which are induced by pathogen/herbivore-derived elicitors. Ascogaster reticulata (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is an egg-larval parasitoid o...

Plant responses induced by Adoxophyes honmai oviposition in host tea plants and non-host Arabidopsis thaliana
In the tea ecosystem, tea plants are exposed to attack by the smaller tea tortrix, Adoxophyes honmai Yasuda (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae). Ascogaster reticulata Watanabe (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is a solitary egg-l...

Effect of Leaf Maturity on Host Habitat Location by the Egg-Larval Parasitoid Ascogaster reticulata
Adoxophyes honmai, a serious pest of tea plants, prefers to lay eggs on mature tea leaves rather than young leaves. Here, we examined a hypothesis that Ascogaster reticulata, an egg-larval parasitoid of A. honmai
