| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, the function of the haustorium, which is the interface between the host plant and the parasitic plant, is studied at the molecular level The purpose of this study was to elucidate the information exchange, control, decision making and output in both plants. Striga, a parasitic plant, parasitizes the roots of major cereals and causes extensive damage. In addition to the genome transcriptome analysis of Striga and other parasitic plants, we also conducted a genome transcriptome analysis. We have established an experimental model system using the parasitic plant, P. japonicum, We also have completed its genome sequencing and established a root transformation system, which allowed us to identify genes and receptors important for parasitism, and to discover the movement of hormones between plants.
