Research Interests
Nuclear transplantation between different stocks or different species in the ciliate, Euplotes.
Nuclear functions, especially meiotic activity or gene expression, were investigated in the micronuclei-transplanted cells.
|
Current Research
Taxonomic identification in Euplotes.
Cannibalism in the ciliate, Blepharisma.
Response to mechanical stress in the ciliate, Spirostomum.
Teaching materials in biological education.
Recognition of organisms in the students of a college.
