| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a simplified Agrobacterium-mediated transformation technique (AgarTrap method) for the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha, and produced a T-DNA insertion mutant library containing over 10 thousands lines. Using the mutant library, we explored mutant(s) deficient in the organelle relocation movement response, and successfully found one mutant. Based on various experiments, we found that the mutant lacks a novel gene, but not known genes involved in the response. In our future work, we will analyze the novel gene.
