Studies on fruiting bodies of edible mushrooms via lipidomics approach: fruiting body formation and blue-light response

Department of Agro-environmental Sciences, Graduate School of Bioresource and Bioenvironmental Sciences

Fruiting bodies of edible mushrooms are an important source of agri-products and bioactive substances. It is of great significance to study the fruiting body morphogenesis in the mushroom industry. Li [...]

Impact of deer foraging on forest nitrogen cycling: Exploring variations across different stand structures

Department of Agro-environmental Sciences, Graduate School of Bioresource and Bioenvironmental Sciences

Understanding nitrogen (N) cycles in forests is important for understanding ecosystems function of forests. In western Japan, excessive deer feeding has caused changes in the structure of the fores [...]

It is known that cellulose undergoes an irreversible transformation from native cellulose I (with parallel molecular chains) to cellulose II (with antiparallel chains) through high-concentration alkal [...]

Theoretical analysis of the evolution of diapause with sex-specific plasticity of seasonal polyphenism in the butterfly, Eurema mandarina

Department of Systems Life Sciences, Graduate School of Systems Life Sciences

In order to theoretically clarify the conditions under which coexistence of diapause-form and non-diapause-form males observed in the butterfly (Eurema mandarina) in late autumn evolves, we will devel [...]
