(Reuters) - Nearly three-fourths of Japanese voters want to see a gradual phase-out of nuclear power, a newspaper poll showed on Tuesday, the latest sign of concerns about atomic safety as the country struggles with the world's worst nuclear crisis in 25 years.

The survey by the Asahi newspaper, however, also showed that 51 percent agreed reactors now off-line for inspections should be restarted if they met government safety standards, compared with 35 percent who were opposed, although the percentage opposed was higher in regions hosting reactors.

The survey coincided with Monday's referendum in Italy where almost 95 percent of votes cast favoured blocking a nuclear power revival in the earthquake-prone country
