Welcome to Sato Lab !
Laboratory of Plant Genetics, National Institute of Genetics.
The goal of our research is to elucidate the mechanism of plant embryogenesis. We are focusing on processes of the patterning of apical-basal or dorsal-ventral axis formation, and the organogenesis during the early stages of rice embryogenesis. We are taking a molecular genetic approach using a series of rice embryogenesis defective mutants as well as comparative embryology and genomics approaches in grass species. We are also responsible for managing, preservation, propagation, and distribution of rice genetic resources of wild rice species collected in the NIG under the NBRP.
