Oryzalin-induced Tetraploidy in Cryptomeria japonica (Cupressaceae)
Japanese-cedar [Cryptomeria japonica (L.f.) D. Don] represents an alternative to leyland cypress [·Cuprocyparis leylandii (A.B. Jacks. & Dallim.) Farjon] as an evergreen screen or specimen plant for landscapes. It performs well under a range of soil and environmental conditions but has been underused attributable, in part, to unsightly winter browning caused by photoinhibition. In previous stud...
متن کاملGenetic Differentiation and Evolutionary Adaptation in Cryptomeria japonica
Local adaptation of plant species is a central issue for survival during global climate change, especially for long-lived forest trees, with their lengthy regeneration time and spatially limited gene flow. Identification of loci and/or genomic regions associated with local adaptation is necessary for knowledge of both evolution and molecular breeding for climate change. Cryptomeria japonica is ...
متن کاملModeling Diameter Growth and Self-Thinning in Planted Sugi (Cryptomeria japonica) Stands
Abstract: The objectives of this study were to analyze diameter growth in relation to natural thinning in high-density stands in even-aged, pure plantation forests and to develop a growth prediction system based on Japanese permanent plot data. Long-term data recorded in even-aged, pure, unthinned stand plots of Sugi (Cryptomeria japonica) forests were available. Relationships between log-trans...
متن کاملTowards male sterility in Cryptomeria japonica using the male strobilus-specific genes of C. japonica
Background Cryptomeria japonica D. Don (sugi) is one of the most important Japanese conifer species. Rapid improvement of the wood trait (e.g., growth speed and wood quality) using a conventional breeding approach is not possible, because breeding of coniferous tree requires a very long time. Genetic modification might be a powerful tool to shorten the time needed to breed trees compared with t...
متن کاملDNA variation in a conifer, Cryptomeria japonica (Cupressaceae sensu lato).
We investigated the nucleotide variation of a conifer, Cryptomeria japonica, and the divergence between this species and its closest relative, Taxodium distichum, at seven nuclear loci (Acl5, Chi1, Ferr, GapC, HemA, Lcyb, and Pat). Samples of C. japonica were collected from three areas, Kantou-Toukai, Hokuriku, and Iwate. No apparent geographic differentiation was found among these samples. How...
