| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Research on improving the water use efficiency of plants is essential. In this research project, basic research was conducted to create plants that show high productivity under water-saving conditions. By combining chlorophyll fluorescence and thermography, we succeeded to construct a prototype of a visualization device for plant water use efficiency, which can simultaneously evaluate photosynthetic rate and transpiration rate. In addition, basic research for genetic improvement of water use efficiency in plants led to the discovery of several factors effective in enhancing plant productivity under water-saving conditions.
