Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to explore the optimal pattern of light irradiation variation for plant growth, plants were grown under various light conditions, and basic data on plant growth were collected. First, a cultivation system with light fluctuation was constructed, and a system that can centrally manage multiple irradiation light control units with a single PC was built. Next, the effects of light irradiation patterns on plant growth were investigated using the constructed system, and it was suggested that the growth rate of Arabidopsis thaliana varied depending on the interaction between irradiation patterns and day length. Environmental measurements and field surveys of photosynthesis-induced responses were conducted on the tropical forest floor and revealed that changes in the rate of photosynthesis-induced responses within the same tropical tree species were dependent on stomatal aperture along the growth light environment.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究で得られた「光照射の長期変動パターンの影響」は、栽培用の高輝度LED光源を用いた植物工場への技術提供や産学連携強化の礎としての可能性を秘めている。また、本研究にように、長期的に植物成長にとって最適な光照射パターン、光強度、日長などを網羅的に調べた研究はなく、本研究で先駆けて実施すれば効率的な植物栽培の基礎研究として大きなアドバンテージとなる。
