Current and Past Project

　Stem lot disease of the asparagus is the difficulty prevention blight that drove the bare ground production center of the southwest warm place into the destruction. However, there is not resistance in the asparagus seed, and I take measures, but general prevention is insufficient mainly on drug prevention. Therefore, using the mongrel after ages with the wild animal class having stem lot resistance which applicants created, I bring up a resistance system of the asparagus to solve these problems and I search a resistance marker and develop a developing new varieties of plants technology in a short term.
Although SI paper manufacture sludge is discarded by incineration now, establishment of a non-burning system recycling system is desired from a viewpoint of ecology, such as carbon-dioxide-emission reduction.
This research project is a product development project for the agricultural use using PSI Paper sludge.
To investigate the difference of nutrition systems of Rhizoctonia from parasitim to variatible using molecular analysis

By using polysilica iron flocculant (PSI), it have succeeded in creating an aluminum-free paper sludge. Furthermore, PSI paper sludge has opened up the prospect of technological development that will enable recycling without resorting to incineration, whereas conventional paper sludge treatment has relied on incineration. Therefore, it searched for highly effective fungi for low-temperature fermentation of PSI papermaking sludge (PSI sludge) and clarified their taxonomic position. Furthermore, it clarified the characteristics of the isolates that are highly effective for low-temperature fermentation of PSI sludge by conducting culture tests on the obtained isolates and investigating the substances produced by the isolates..

Agr., Kyushu Univ, 65, 1, 9-14, 2020.02, Heavy metal (Cr, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, and Pb) contamination of the summer and winter vegetables were examined in a multi–industry district of Bangladesh. In this district, various kinds of industries discharged their wastewater into nearby irrigation canals, contaminating the vegetables that were cultivated by using the irrigation water with the heavy metals. Among the vegetables, the heavy metal concentrations were the highest in root vegetables, followed by leaf vegetables for both the summer and winter vegetables. Zn was the highest, while Cd was the lowest in concentrations throughout the vegetables. Every heavy metal concentration was lower in the summer than in the winter vegetables. The reason is probably that the concentrations of irrigation water and soil were diluted by rainfall during the rainy season when the summer vegetables were grown. The health risk index, which enables to assess the potential health risk due to the ingestion of vegetables, showed a high value in root and leaf vegetables, which indicated that the root and leaf vegetables grown in the district were found unsuitable for human ingestion..

In this district, various kinds of industries discharged their wastewater into nearby irrigation canals, and soil contaminated with this water could be a major environmental pollution factor. The geoaccumulation index (Igeo) indicated that the study areas (in both dry and wet season) were treated as uncontaminated to moderately contaminated with Zn and As in Banglabazar; Zn, Cu, and As in Kashimpur; and Zn in Chandra but uncontaminated with other heavy metals. The pollution load index (PLI) showed the study areas were slightly contaminated in the dry season whereas uncontaminated in the wet season. Based on potential ecological risk index (RI) only Banglabazar area posed moderate risk in the dry season whereas other areas posed low risk in the both seasons. On the other hand, the characteristics of lower Igeo, PLI and RI values in the wet season showing the dilution effect of rainfall (in irrigation water) on the soil’s low absorption of the heavy metals. The results of current study clearly pointed out that the study areas were mostly uncontaminated with heavy metals and pose low risk to the environment..

Nguyen Van Thinh, Masaru Matsumoto, Shamim Uddin, Yiping Xie, Kiyoshi Kurosawa, Arsenic, Toxic Heavy Metals, and C-N-P in Peaty Sediments in Samta Village, Southwestern Bangladesh, JOURNAL OF THE FACULTY OF AGRICULTURE KYUSHU UNIVERSITY, 63, 2, 207-210, 2018.01, Concentration of Arsenic (As), other toxic heavy metals, and C, N, P of the peaty sediments collected rom Samta Village, Bangladesh were analyzed. The sediment layers were located in 6.5–9.0 m in depth from ground surface. According to the results, As, N (total), NH4–N and C (total) concentrations were larger in peat than peaty clay layers. As is, therefore, may be related to N (total), NH4–N and C (total) in concentrations. There were significant amount of ash, which was inorganic residue (minerals), in the sediments. P2O5 in the sediments may be sourced from phosphate fertilizers. The concentration of Fe, Al and Mn were high, while the concentrations of Cr, Cu, Zn, Pb were low. Based on the correlation analysis, the higher As may be related to higher C, N, H in concentrations. Thus, organic substances may be related to the higher As concentration. P2O5 and NH4–N were not closely related to the As concentrations. Positive correlations of As with Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb in concentrations were observed, while any correlation of As with Fe and Mn was not observed..

For rep-PCR assays primers ERIC2 and BOXA1R were used. Sequences of these isolates were aligned with other known R. solani sequences from the GenBank. Rep-PCR analysis revealed that two genotypes (Rep-Vet1 and Rep-Vet2) were present based on the fingerprinting dendrograms having the similarity coefficient score at 75% differentiation. The two clonal populations were scattered and had different geographical localizations in North Vietnam..

Bait plant materials of rice, mat rush and cotton were successfully used to isolate R. solani AG1-IA, R. oryzae and R. oryzae-sativae. Moreover, the three plant materials were also effectively used to detect genomic DNA derived from all Rhizoctonia spp. obtained from Myanmar. Rice segment was the most successful materials for detection of fungal cell lipids including palmitic, stearic and linoleic acids. The results of this experiment demonstrate that bait plant materials of rice, mat rush and cotton were the best useful tools for not only direct isolation, but also fungal DNA diagnosis and cell lipid assay of Myanmar soil environmental conditions.

Compared to the WTR alone, the WTR + bark medium exhibited similar neutral pH and a redox potential (Eh) indicating aerobic conditions, higher electrical conductivity (EC), cation exchange capacity (CEC), and total carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) concentrations, and lower phosphate (P) absorption coefficients and available manganese (Mn) concentrations. Comparing to the theoretical baseline medium immediately after creation, the WTR + bark medium, after a one-month incubation, exhibited a decline in available Mn, total C, and total N concentrations and an increase in CEC and P-absorption coefficients. These changes may be attributable not only to the introduction of composted bark but, also, to the increase in aerobicmicrobial activityor some factor by incubation..
