LIFE ON LAND

The global ocean deep-water circulation delivers heat content, nutrients, and many other chemicals worldwide, thus important in affecting the ecosystem and climate. Among them, the Pacific is a specia [...]

生物は微小な構成単位を集合させることによって材料を成し、集合構造に起因した優れた機能を創発させる。このプロセスは常温常圧、水系といった極めて温和な環境下で達成されることから、持続可能な社会の実現に向けて大きな注目を集めている。一方で、繊維状の物質は互いに絡まりあうため、複雑な構造を構築することが困難であった。本研究では、集合構造化の場として流体界面に着目し、ナノ繊維の緻密な構造化を通し、集合構造か [...]

Plants change their root structure in response to varying nitrogen (N) availability in order to utilize N in soil efficiently. The root of the model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana consists of a single ma [...]

Who Should Capture the Deer? Reconsidering a Sustainable Wildlife Management System Based on a Framework: 'self-help, mutual assistance, and public support'

The damage caused by Japanese deer is becoming increasingly serious. To date, deer capture has largely depended on local hunting clubs, but the number and aging of hunters have become critical issues, [...]

More than 150,000 species have been described within the order Hymenoptera worldwide, the majority of which are parasitoid wasps that prey upon other arthropods. These parasitoids have diversified by [...]

哺乳類ではたった一つの受精卵から個体が形成される。このように一つの細胞から一個体を形成できる能力を全能性といい、その性質を有する細胞を全能性細胞という。したがって全能性細胞は生命の源であり、その分子基盤を理解することは「生命とは何か」に対する知見をもたらす。本研究では着床前初期発生過程の細胞核を用いたプロテオーム解析から全能性制御に関与する要素の同定を目指す。

The detailed mechanisms that lowered the atmospheric CO2 concentrations by approximately 100 ppm during glacial periods remain a crucial open question. It is hypothesized that increased ocean alkalini [...]

In recent years, the loss of understory vegetation such as dwarf bamboo (Sasa spp.) has become more serious due to overgrazing by Sika deer, which is rapidly increasing in population. Degradation of [...]
