The Developmental Biology and Systems Plant Science Lab studies the development of flowers and roots in plants such as rice and barley. The lab is located in the Bioscience and Biotechnology Center at Nagoya University. Undergraduate students belong to the Department of Biological Resource Sciences in the School of Agricultural Sciences, and graduate students belong to the Department of Plant Production Science in the Graduate School of Bioagricultural Sciences.

The Plant Genome Breeding Lab uses plant genome information to develop crop varieties suited to solving the challenges of modern society. The lab regards breeding as a form of "manufacturing" and aims to develop varieties that address challenges such as reducing carbon dioxide, energy, and marine plastic waste. The main crop is sorghum, and the lab also works on rice. On the lab's website, it is also introduced under the name "Sazuka Lab."

The Environmental Systems Biology Lab, working mainly with plants, aims to understand, predict, and control how organisms respond in real environments. The lab believes that understanding how organisms behave in real environments is essential to learning their true nature and applying that knowledge. Members come from diverse backgrounds, including molecular biology, ecology, and data science. The lab seminar is held online every week, bringing together members from three sites: Nagoya University, Keio University, and Ryukoku University.

The Animal Genetics and Breeding Lab studies livestock and poultry, laboratory animals, and wild animals, with genetics and breeding science as its two pillars. In addition to basic research on elucidating genetic phenomena and on the genetic diversity and evolution of animals, the lab pursues applied research aimed at developing new model animals, breeding useful animals, and conserving, discovering, and utilizing genetic resources of native livestock breeds and wild animals. Recently, the lab has been using approaches such as molecular biology, quantitative genetics, and genomics, conducting research with a broad perspective that spans molecules and cells to individuals and populations. The lab welcomes people who are interested in genetics and highly motivated to pursue creative research on their own, and it respects each student's preferences when choosing a research theme as far as possible.

The Genome and Epigenome Dynamics Lab studies how the genome, the blueprint of living organisms, and the epigenetic mechanisms that regulate it are established and how they change. Using comparisons such as human and chimpanzee iPS cells and mouse subspecies, the lab investigates epigenomic differences mainly through large-scale sequencing. The lab pays particular attention to how mammalian retrotransposons alter the function of the genome. The lab belongs to the Department of Biological Resource Sciences for undergraduates and the Department of Animal Sciences for graduate students.

The Animal Morphology Lab studies animal morphology in the broad sense, from the macro to the micro level. Its research centers on anatomy, microbiology, genetics, and developmental biology. The study materials include mice, bats, cultured cells, viruses, viviparous fishes, and electric eels. Students are assigned to labs for their graduation research in December of the third year, but lab visits and consultations before then are always welcome.

The Integrative Animal Physiology Lab studies the ingenious mechanisms by which animals adapt to environmental change, using a variety of animals. The subjects include mammals such as mice and hamsters, birds such as chickens and quails, and fish such as medaka and zebrafish. Working with organic synthetic chemists, the lab also develops molecules that can contribute to increasing food production and overcoming human diseases. The lab is split between two buildings: the School of Agricultural Sciences and the Institute of Transformative Bio-Molecules.

The Animal Reproductive Science Lab studies how reproduction in mammals is controlled, from the perspective of neuroendocrinology. Using experimental animals such as rats, mice, and musk shrews, the lab investigates how the brain and the gonads influence each other. In recent years, the lab has focused on kisspeptin, which regulates gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from upstream. The findings are aimed at applications in livestock production and are also used to improve human reproductive medicine.

The Animal Nutrition Science Lab studies the mechanisms of animal nutrition and metabolism, using chickens, quails, mice, rats, and cells. The lab investigates the metabolic and transport mechanisms specific to the liver, kidney, and ovary, as well as new physiological functions of components contained in food. Focusing on essential nutrients, food components involved in taste and palatability, and food components with strong physiological effects, the lab aims to propose new concepts in nutritional physiology.

The Animal Production Science Lab works to elucidate the physiological functions that livestock naturally possess, with the aim of linking its findings to higher livestock productivity. In particular, the lab aims to clarify the mechanisms that control reproductive function, which bears directly on increasing livestock numbers, and to develop technologies for efficient reproduction. Using goats and cattle as research subjects, the lab studies the biological phenomena of ruminant livestock. The lab is located at Togo Field (the University Farm) of the Field Science Center for Education and Research, attached to the Graduate School of Bioagricultural Sciences.
