| General Description of the Research Project | This research aims to accelerate mutation breeding for sustainable crop production under climate change by development of innovative phenotyping technology. The Japanese team will develop interpretable AI models to reveal yield limiting factors and identify responsible genes for mutant phenotype by whole genome sequence analysis, while the Thailand and Indonesia teams will conduct rice field trials under various stress conditions. Through joint research by the three teams, it is expected to contribute to robust agricultural production under climate change. |
