Basic Research Group
Leader's Profile
Activities of Basic Research GroupThe Basic Research Group explores, evaluates, and conserves fungal genetic resources, accumulating high-quality genetic resources in order to construct a database of genetic data. More specifically, we are actively committed to collecting fungus and other mushroom species throughout the country and the world. We perform accurate identification and evaluation of collected strains to accelerate the pace of exploration of new genetic resources. We are continuously expanding our cumulative stock of high-quality genetic resources and plan to double the scale of the existing genetic resource bank of 10,000 strains representing 1,000 species within a period of five years. Additionally, we also plan to construct a genetic resource database, which will store both morphologic and genetic information on the collected fungal and other mushroom samples to lay the groundwork for the development of an identification and classification system for mushrooms and plant pathogenic fungi.. We expect that the high-quality genetic resource bank will serve a wide range of needs in the development and practical application of new functions of fungi and enable the achievement of the purposes of environmental conservation, food production, and health promotion, all necessary components for the realization of a sustainable society in harmony with nature.
