LIFE ON LAND

Do forests always protect us from heavy rainfall? Forests can temporarily store rainfall on leaves, branches, and bark, delaying the movement of water to the ground. However, during heavy or prolonged [...]

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 [...]

Recent advances in UAV LiDAR and airborne laser scanning have enabled high-resolution and low-cost acquisition of three-dimensional forest point cloud data. At the same time, analysis methods such as [...]

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 [...]

The apple fruit borer Spilonota samseong (Tortricidae), a pest of apples, has two closely related species (S. albicana and S. prognathana) that do not feed on apples. They closely resemble each other [...]

All animals do communications by some means in the interactions with others. Some of them use acoustic sound for communication. They can be divided into two groups, one of which warbles in both males [...]
