Developmental Genetics
Studies using Rare Model Systems from Evo-Devo to Aging
In the Developmental Genetics session, we have lined up great speakers to discuss interesting research topics using a variety of model systems. Our presentations will range from studies in evolutionary developmental biology, utilizing butterflies and jellyfish, to evolutionary ecology with wild freshwater fish and duckweed, and onto aging research employing killifish. We aim to showcase new research methods through the use of a diverse array of rare models.

Plant Genetics
Advances in Plant Genetics
Plant genetics began with Mendel's peas, and the discovery of transposon in maize was a key discovery in epigenetics. Unraveling the unknowns of plant genetics such as heterosis and polyploidy inheritance may provide clues to improve the crops that will feed us in the future. In this symposium, we will introduce the latest discoveries in genetic mechanisms and epigenetics at the germline and somatic cell level, and the functions of genes newly identified by genome-based gene engineering in non-model plants.
