Postwar Reconstruction of Japanese Genetics: Kihara Hitoshi and the Rockefeller Foundation Rice Project in Cold War Asia
This paper examines the post-Occupation reconstruction of Japanese genetics by considering its relations with both US postwar interests and Japanese wartime activities in Asia. In the 1950s, the Rockefeller Foundation approached Kihara Hitoshi,1 a prominent Japanese plant geneticist, as part of their interests in a large agricultural project in Cold War Asia, which eventually developed into what is now known as the Green Revolution. Kihara used this opportunity to bring in necessary resources for Japanese geneticists, obtaining a grant from the foundation to research the origin of cultivated rice at the National Institute of Genetics (NIG). When the foundation established the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) in the Philippines in 1960, Kihara was named one of the trustees. Using the IRRI network, Kihara integrated the NIG into the international network and reestablished Japanese rice geneticists’ authority internationally through the standardization of rice gene symbols. With the foundation’s support, Japanese geneticists reentered fields in Asia soon after Japan began restoring its diplomatic relations. In this article, I show that Kihara’s postwar reconstruction effort was a continuation of Japanese geneticists’ longstanding development of resources, networks, and authority in Asia since wartime. I also suggest that examining interactions between the foundation/IRRI and the Japanese rice research community broadens our understanding of the history of rice science in Asia, including that of the Green Revolution, whose narrative is often centered on postwar US interests.journal articl
