Battle between Humans and Weeds

The history of crop cultivation is also the history of the battle between humans and weeds.
In our laboratory, we are conducting research to elucidate the battle between humans and weeds that has been waged in agricultural lands from a molecular biological perspective, to gain a deeper understanding of the way weeds live and to develop better weed control technology.
