Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, to develop novel biodegradable polymers that could use as agricultural gears, we investigated the relationship between biodegradable polymers and polymer-degrading microbiota. A kind of biodegradable polymers are also degraded by plant-pathogens. Phylogenetic analyses of metagenome on the surface of biodegradable polymers revealed that some plant-pathogens appeared on the soil after incubation at 30 degree celsius for 7 months. On the other hand, the growth on a plant was never effected by the soil.
