Persimmon (\u67ff) shows a wide diversity in their fruit shape and ripening. Utilizing their genetic diversities, with GWAS and\/or transcriptomic network analyses, we are attempting to identify genetic factors conferring various shapes and ripening characters. Also, planning to launch onto tomato ripening system, focusing on evolutionally conserved ethylene receptors and chemical compounds accessible to them.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<hr>\n<h2>Study on sex determination in horticultural crops<\/h2>\n<div class=\"columns\">\n<div>\n<p>Sexuality is one of the most important strategies to maintain the genetic diversity within a species. In horticultural crops, the sexuality also involves breeding, cultivation, and fruit qualities. Harnessing various sexual systems (or sex expressions) would derive many applications. We have been researching on the sex determination systems of persimmon, in which the first finding of plant sex determining gene was made, kiwifruit, and white campion. Their independent but convergent evolution of the sexualities tells us potentially various ways to artificially modify sex expressions in crop.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gels.okayama-u.ac.jp\/kokusaisyakaizin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Photo3_2akagi.jpg\" alt=\"\"  class=\"aligncenter\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research Area : Postharvest Horticulture Assoc.Prof.AKAGI Takeshi Prediction of qualities and disorders of fruits and vegetables, by \u201cDEEP LEARNING\u201d D &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gels.okayama-u.ac.jp\/kokusaisyakaizin\/research\/department-of-plant-science\/postharvest-and-crop-application\"> read more&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":127,"menu_order":5,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"research.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-998","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gels.okayama-u.ac.jp\/kokusaisyakaizin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/998"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gels.okayama-u.ac.jp\/kokusaisyakaizin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gels.okayama-u.ac.jp\/kokusaisyakaizin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gels.okayama-u.ac.jp\/kokusaisyakaizin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gels.okayama-u.ac.jp\/kokusaisyakaizin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=998"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.gels.okayama-u.ac.jp\/kokusaisyakaizin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/998\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2381,"href":"https:\/\/www.gels.okayama-u.ac.jp\/kokusaisyakaizin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/998\/revisions\/2381"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gels.okayama-u.ac.jp\/kokusaisyakaizin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/127"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gels.okayama-u.ac.jp\/kokusaisyakaizin\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=998"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
