| Research Abstract |
Since rice is a main staple crop in Japan, a lot of data for growth and yield characteristics of varieties has been accumulated for a long time throughout the country. The purpose of the present study is to build up the database for those data in order to make use of the exploitation for cultivation method and breeding under global climate change in the 21^<st> century. The data for shoot morphology, phenological characters, tolerance for disease and pests, and for environmental stress, and yield and its components in totally 587 varieties, which have been widely cultivated throughout Japan in the 20^<th> century, were gathered based on their officially announcement at the time of variety registration in nation or in each prefecture. These data were unified to the same description of unit, such as weight, length and soil area, which were different between regions or changed with times. Finally, the database gathering these data of more than 10 thousands was built up using software being made by on homepage site (http://www.agr.hokudai.ac.jp/botagr/sakumotsu/) in Hokkaido University. For the main varieties cultivated widely and long time in the 20^<th> century in Japan, the physiological and ecological characteristics, such as leaf area index, photosynthetic rate, rate and duration of grain filling, grain yield and its components, and the response of these characters to nitrogen fertilizer levels were additionally investigated during the Project periods at the university farms by the project investigators. These data will be combined into the present database in the near future.
