Associate Professor
OI Takao

Doctor of Agricultural Sciences, Nagoya University, Japan, 2014

Areas of specialization	Agriculture, Crop Science, Plant Morphology
Laboratory/research office	Lab. of Plant Functional Morphology Plants exhibit a wide variety of forms and functions while commonly having a basic tissue structure. We carefully observe the microstructure of plant tissues and cells using optical microscopes, electron microscopes, and X-ray CT, and are working to elucidate the shapes related to photosynthetic ability and stress resistance. Especially, we are working to develop and improve new observation techniques, such as three-dimensional reconstruction methods that capture objects as 3D shapes rather than 2D planar images, and trying to discover unknown structures of plants.
