Applied Molecular Microbiology Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies microbes in everyday life, from pathogens of rice to winemaking.
AboutAbout the lab
From rice pathogens to wine microbes.
The Applied Molecular Microbiology Lab studies a wide range of microorganisms, specializing in applied mycology and microbial genetics.
It works on the mechanisms of mutation in the rice blast fungus, which causes rice disease, and on the search for and development of highly functional phytases.
It also analyzes how microorganisms change during winemaking, and preserves and manages strains in the AHU Strain Preservation Room.
Key terms
- Rice blast
- A disease caused by a type of fungus, in which lesions form on rice leaves and panicles and the plant withers. A representative rice disease.
- Phytase
- An enzyme that breaks down the phosphorus compound (phytic acid) abundant in plant seeds and similar tissues.
- Strain
- Among microbes of the same type, a single line that has been isolated from a given source and grown in pure culture.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab works on elucidating the mutation mechanisms of the rice blast fungus, searching for and developing highly functional phytases, analyzing microbial dynamics during winemaking, and preserving and managing microbial strains.
