Green biotechnology Area

Program Officer (PO)

Overview

This technology area aims to advance the use of biotechnology to create low-environmental-impact industrial processes that enable the reduction, fixation, and utilization of greenhouse gases in natural environments such as forests, farmland, and oceans.
Specifically, we aim to elucidate the mechanisms underlying symbiotic relationships in complex biological systems, where diverse organisms interact in intricate ways and many aspects remain unknown, as well as to establish methods for harnessing the functions of plants and microorganisms based on these symbiotic mechanisms.
To this end, we will promote the development of high-throughput analytical technologies that exceed conventional approaches to elucidate mechanisms of action; novel genome-editing and breeding technologies that maximize the functions of microorganisms and plants; and technologies that leverage these functions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while enabling food production.
