Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To secure crop production and keep ecosystems properly functioning in the high CO2 era, we should examine plant responses to high CO2. In this program, molecular biologists, crop scientists, and ecologists studied various plant CO2 responses together through forming a tight consortium. The staring team tried to activate this consortium through supporting omics platforms, encouraging collaborations, and organizing various workshops and symposia. We organized four retreats for young scientists to expose them to interdisciplinary environment. We also tried to publicize not only the results our studies but also importance of the studies in relation to the global climate changes to a large audience including citizens, high school students, university students, as well as plant scientists.
