Various optical microscope technologies for visualization of specific molecules such as fluorescence imaging have been developed recently, however there are various biological phenomena that can be taken only by the electron microscopy. In the 82nd Annual Meeting of the Botanical Society of Japan, we had a joint symposium with the Japanese Society of Plant Morphology and IIRS, we arranged a symposium with speakers who are analyzing ultrastructural level by using various electron microscopic techniques for various biological materials from unicellular algae to trees. After presentation by the speakers, we held a symposium to discuss current morphology issues and ways to solve them.
