In Japan, plant genomics research is mainly leaded by the national research institutes. The various structural studies such as rice genome has allowed researchers to analyze useful traits, and to focus their commercialization. With aims to facilitate structural and functional study in plant genome, NIAS (National Institute of Agrobiological Sciences) constructed Poaceae genome DB and RIKEN (Rikagaku Kenkyusho) built DB for Arabidopsis genome and plant full-length cDNA. NIG (National Institute of Genetics) constructed a national biological resources DB (National Bio Resource Project). This compiling DB provides a variety of genome-related research materials for researchers in the field. Recently, as an effort to resolve global issues of food supply and environmental problems, New Agri-genome Project has been performed aiming to develop an innovative agricultural technologies for the quantity, disease resistance and identifying useful genes related to environmental problems. In addition, in order to improve agricultural productivity in developing countries, JIRCAS assisted technical supports for the plant genome research and developed NERICA rice, which is suitable for African area. Such these approaches are expected to contribute to solving the global issues about food, energy and environment in the world.
