Coevolution Research Group (CRG) aims at the mechanism elucidation of coevolutionary phenomena amid organisms.Taking some important groups of the organism in tropical and subtropical ecosystems as the major research materials. The integrating methodologies of animal ecology, plant ecology, chemical ecology and molecular biology have been used to research fig and fig wasp system, and obtain some progress. CRG is carrying out researches to discover the phenomena of mutualism, symbiosis, parasitism, predation, competition and adaptation occurred in the processes of systematic development and evolution, to understand the mechanisms of coevolution between interacting organisms, and to explore the essence and process of the evolution of species in micro and macro scopes. In recent years, the species diversity of some important insects is also monitored to discover their influencing factors. The ultimate aim of CRG is to provide scientific basis for the efficient conservation and sustainable utilization of biodiversity. 
Our recent research will focuses:
1. The evolution of key traits about pollination and oviposition in fig and fig wasp system.
2. Evolutionary mechanism of fig and fig wasp co-diversification.
3. Multitrophic community assembly and operating mechaism of complex ecological network.
4. Biodiversity conservation and sustainable utilization.
