Outline of Final Research Achievements

Common buckwheat is an important crop, but yield and yield stability are low. Therefore, these improvements and development of breeding techniques is required. It is thought that photoperiod sensitivity and ecotype are greatly related to improve buckwheat yield and yield stability. However, few studies have elucidated the relevance on the genome level of photoperiod sensitivity, ecotype and ecotype differentiation in buckwheat.
Under these circumstances, this research has confirmed that many photoperiod sensitivity homologous genes are present in buckwheat, ecotype changes by selection under long day conditions, selection pressure for the photoperiod sensitivity gene was confirmed. From these results, It was inferred that ecotype design breeding in buckwheat could be possible by targeting photoperiod sensitivity gene regions.
