Outline of Final Research Achievements

Totally the project meeting was held six times in different places of Japan in order to stimulate the exchange of information among members. A meeting for young students and researchers was also held five times with special events each time. Furthermore, we financially support the young students and researcher to attend the international meetings. We published five volumes of newsletter. Our members also gave lectures for general citizens, elementary and high school students for teaching the power of plants to overcome environmental stresses. At the stress evaluation center, we supported the members to use closed green house for transgenic plants and laser micro dissection. We regularly updated our homepage. To stimulate collaborative studies with modelling members, we asked modelling experts to give lectures and held a meeting for matching between dry and wet scientists.
