Outline of Final Research Achievements |
From the view points of synthetic organic chemistry and natural product chemistry, I have been engaged in synthetic studies on strigolactones and their related compounds. Strigolactones are germination stimulants for the seeds of root parasitic weeds such as Striga and Orobanche. Strigolactones are also used as host recognition signals for arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, and have been proposed as a new class of plant hormone that inhibit shoot branching. The main objectives of this project are synthesis of naturally occurring strigolactones and contribution for parasitic weed control.
