During the 20-year history of the JSRR, many studies have been performedon plant roots, contributing new evidence to root science and technology. TheJSRR has played an important role in enlarging the international network ofroot studies as a member of the ISRR in Asia. I look forward to celebrating theJSRR's 20th Anniversary Symposium in the coming November. I hope that theroot research network will continue to expand on an international scale,particularly in Asia, and produce many useful results.

Professor, Kyoto Institute of Technology
The Japanese Society for Root Research (JSRR) was founded in 1992, and it
has operated for two decades. We are holding an international symposium todevelop a network of root researchers in Asia in order to advance efforts tosecure healthy food, a safe environment, and peace. Come join us!

About JSRR
The Japanese Society for Root Research (JSRR; http://www.jsrr.jp/e/) was established in 1992 toenhance plant root research and communication among plant root scientists in Japan andelsewhere. Nearly 450 individuals are registered members of the JSRR.
Over the course of its 20-year history, the JSRR has organized bi-annual domestic meetings andpublished the domestic newsletter Root Research. In addition, the JSRR organized severalinternational symposiums. In particular, the JSRR co-organized the sixth Symposium of theInternational Society of Root Research (ISRR) with the ISRR in Nagoya City in 2001. Three
hundred forty-one people from 34 countries participated in this symposium. The selected papers
from the 6th ISRR Symposium were published as a special issue of Plant and Soil (Vol. 255, Issue.
1) and a book (Root: The dynamic interface between plant and the Earth, Kluwer Academic
Publishers, 2003).
The JSRR began publishing an open access electronic journal, Plant Root(http://www.plantroot.org/), in 2007. Plant Root is the only international journal in the world thatspecializes in plant root science.
