79年8月在华盛顿召开的国际植物保护会议有一个议题,题名为:“行为控制物质在植物保护方面的作用和应用”。会上所讨论的问题与我们日本研究人员所面临的问题大致相同,即确认行为控制物质的有效作用。认为从长远观点来看,应该把其纳入虫害防治战略的重要一环来进行研究。但会上对哪些目前能直接应用和今后的研究方向等问题,还存在各种不同的意见。 An IPPC conference in Washington, August 1979 entitled “The Role and Application of Behavior Control Substances in Plant Protection”. The issues discussed at the meeting were broadly in line with the problems faced by our Japanese researchers in identifying the effective role of behavior-controlling substances. Considered that in the long run, it should be included in the pest control strategy an important part of the study. However, at the meeting, there are still various opinions on issues that can be directly applied now and in the future.
