Keywords:Tomato growth, hand-made clinostat

The circulationCirculation of foods is be an important matter for long–term manned space activity in extraterrestrial environments, such as on Mars. We have already confirmed that seed formation in tomato plants requires gravity. In this study, we will consider the gravity-required period and its mechanisms during seed formation under microgravity generated by a hand-made 3D-clinostat.
