## Discipline(s)

Plant Nutrition, Plant Nutrient Response, Crop Production with Low Fertilizers

## Research interests

My major interests are to contribute to the low input agriculture.  Mineral nutrients are among the requirements for crop production and fertilization contributed yield increase in the recent years.  Fertilization, however, is not sustainable. It has impacts on environments and utilizes limited resources and high energies.  My research extends from basic to applied sciences aiming to contribution to low input agriculture.

In the long history of plant evolution, plants experienced low nutrient environments and modern plants acquired the capacity to adapt low nutrient environments.  This capacity is essential for crop production. Understanding such mechanisms of plants will contribute to the future developments of crops which require less fertilization for production. Such understanding of plant responses to low nutrient environments are also important as a basic scientific knowledge to understand plant behaviors.

To achieve the goal, we utilizes wide ranges of disciplines and technologies, including plant physiology, biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, mathematics, information technologies.

### Study example

1. Studies on plant mechanisms to respond to different nutritional conditions: Using our stocks of cultivars and mutant lines, mechanisms of plant response to different nutritional conditions will be studied through molecular genetics, plant physiology etc.
2. Studies on modeling of plant growth: In combination of phenotyping in fields or in labs of a number of plants/cultivars, in combination of genetic and/or elemental and metabolic profiles, we have been developing technology to determine/predict physiological conditions of plants and their growth. This relatively new technology allows a better prediction of crop growth and it would be very useful to expand this technology to a wide range of crops and conditions.
3. Studies on breeding low-nutrient tolerant/high production crops: we have several collaborations with academic and commercial institutions to develop crop species tolerant to low nutrient conditions, through field testing and genetic analysis.  Nutrient deficiencies of mineral nutrients are problems in various courtiers including Japan and development of such cultivars will contribute to stable production and income of farmers.
