Research Abstract |
Target plants of our project are landrace and wild relatives of rice, wheat, barley and soybean distributed in China. Objectives of the field trip were firstly observation of geographical distribution and ecological condition of their habitats, and secondly, if possible, collection of their seeds for genetic characterization. 1) Rice group : With a kind cooperation of Guangxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences, we could visit 18 sites inhabited by wild progenitor of cultivated rice (Oryza rufipogon) in Guangxi Province. This wild rice is known to be differentiated into perennial and annual ecotypes in tropical Asia, but all populations we observed during our trip were perennial type. They seemed to have unique characteristics differing from perennials grown in tropical areas. In some populations, gene flow from adjacent rice fields was observed. More serious problem is destruction of the natural habitats of wild rice due to urbanization or environmental development. 2) Wheat-Barley group :
… More
In Tibet and Si-Chuan, farmers' fields of wheat and barley were observed and seed sampling was done with the cooperation of scientists of Si Chuan Agricultural University. During two trips in 1995 and 1996, more than 600 samples each of wheat and barley were obtained. "Irregulare" type of barley which has been reported only in Ethiopia was firstly found in Tibet. 3) Soybean group : Farmers' fields of landraces were visited in mountain tribe villages in Gui-Zhou Province and Xi-Shuang Bian Na, Yunnan Province, and diverse types were observed. Distribution of wild soybean (Glysine soja) was surveyed in Northeast and South (Quangxi) China, and along Yellow River. It was confirmed wild soybean is not distributed in South China. Introduction of seed samples of important crops from China is quite restricted officially. For wheat and barley, Chinese counterpart scientists could bring the collected smaples with them for cooperative study in Japan. Materials are now grown in experimental field in Japan, and preliminary survey of characters is going on. For wild rice, one of the Chinese team-members was able to work in Nat. Inst. Genet., and Chinese materials are now under study. For soybean, DNA was extracted and mitochondrial genome is studied in a laboratory of Chinese University by scientists from both countries. Less
