Invited Talk
Agricultural Activities in the Mekong River Delta of Vietnam:
Some Views in Insects and Diseases【ベトナムメコン川地域の農業活動: 植物病と昆虫に関する知見】

ABSTRACT
Vietnam has been the second largest rice exporter in the world. 50% of the production of rice
in Vietnam is from Mekong river delta area. This talk overviews agricultural activities in theMekong River Delta of Vietnam then issues to improve quality of crops and plants will be
discussed. Especially the way how to produce environmental friendly products preventing
them from natural resource erosion and how to develop technology to produce disease andvirus free products will be discussed. Related activities such as GlobalGAP(GoodAgricultural Practice), ASEAN GAP and VietGAP will be introduced.

Establishment and Activities of Hosei University Center for Clinical Plant Science【法政大学植物医科学センターの設立と活動】

ABSTRACT
Hosei University Center for Clinical Plant Science (CCPS) is a plant hospital established in2014. CPSC was originally designed at the time of establishment of the Department ofClinical Plant Science (DCPS) founded in 2008, but it finally realized after six years.
More than 30% of world agricultural production is lost, and sometime natural landscape
was completely destroyed by pests, which are insects, diseases and weeds. To contribute
improving these situation, DCPS launched the plant doctor program. The aim of the programis to educate the engineers who can diagnose plant growth disorders.
The task of CCPS are, firstly, consulting services for diagnosis of the plant disorders,secondly, operation of training courses for high school students and teachers, members ofscientific societies and university students of foreign countries, and finally, publishing thetechnical books as the outcomes of activities of DCPS.

Dr. Takeshi Nishio is a Professor in the Departmentof Clinical Plant Science, Faculty of Bioscience at
Hosei University, Koganei, Japan, and the Director
General of Clinical Plant Science Center. After hereceived M.S. Degree in Plant Pathology form
Nagoya University, he joined Yokohama Plant
Protection Station in 1973. For 15 years, heworked for the Station as a Plant Quarantine
Inspector and Research Scientist. He received thePh.D. Degree from Tokyo University in 1985. From 1997 to 2006, he had served on several
Divisions in the Ministries of Japanese Central Government as an Administrator, atKasumigaseki, Tokyo, including as Deputy Director General of Agriculture, Forestry andFisheries Research Council, and as Director General of Policy Research Institute, MAFF.
His research interests include development of detection methods, epidemiology of plantviruses, especially fruit tree viruses, and aphid transmission of the Plum Pox Virus, the virus
is an exotic plant pathogen intending to eradicate by the Plant Protection Law. Recently, heheaded one of the SIP projects, under the leadership of Council for Science, Technology andInnovation, Cabinet Office, Government of Japan.

Biology, Pathology and Control of Colletotrichum spp on Tropical Plants【熱帯植物における植物炭疽病菌の病理と制御】

ABSTRACT
Colletotrichum spp. is one of the most important genera of plant pathogen fungi (oneof top 10 of economically important fungal pathogen). The genus Colletotrichum
relates to several cash crops on worldwide such as fruit-plants, vegetables andornamentals, and is principal cause of serious plants disease in vital tropical and thesub-tropical regions (De Silva et al., 2016; Da Silva & Michereff, 2013). According toRojas et al., 2010, Colletotrichum spp. is the principle cause of anthracnose disease,damping-off and blossom, seedling blight disease as well as pre- and postharvest fruitrot. Plant-quarantine has decisions that Colletotrichum-infected commodities are notsuitable for import or export purpose because of revenue loss (Sharma and Shenoy,2016). Studies on taxonomy of Colletotrichum were once limited to the identificationof strains using only morphological characteristics and host association. More recently,
using morphology coupled with multi-gene molecular phylogeny has developed as aneffective strategy for improvement and understanding of Colletotrichum taxonomy. Itis a prime important step to make great effort to get achievement of control
anthracnose disease.
