【Elucidation of the viromes in barley and its survival area】

We have elucidated the distribution of latent infection type viruses using barley genetic resources so far. In this research team, we will comprehensively analyze and describe viruses existing in the barley survival area such as the aboveground parts of the barley, the rhizosphere, and pathogens and insects parasitic on the barley. It can be applied to “construction of effective virus vector for genetic analysis / modification of barley”, the resistance to disease mechanism of barley and research on barley and microbial / insect interaction.
