Microorganisms (bacteria and archaea) are responsible for material cycling and environmental conservation in our planet. We will clarify the ecophysiological roles of microorganisms in the soil and hydrosphere and explore their possible application in urban areas. We are trying to understand microbial ecosystems by integrating individual microbial relationships into microbial networks as well as by elucidating the ecophysiology of each microbe.
