Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The analysis of Y chromosomal DNA showed the genetic differentiation between the Hokkaido population and the continental populations of brown bears. But, the paternal genetic difference among local populations within Hokkaido was small. This could have resulted from wider range of males than females, and was in contrast to the triple structure formed by maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA. In addition, analysis of ancient bear bones clarified mitochondrial DNA haplogroups of of brown bears in Bulgaria and Sakhalin, and discussed the zoogeographical history

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
ヒグマは森林生態系の頂点に立つ食肉類であり,その遺伝的多様性,分子系統ならびに進化的起源を明らかにすることは,生物多様性や生態系の保全を考える上で,重要な生物学的情報をもたらす。さらに,本研究はロシアおよびブルガリアとの国際共同研究であり,大陸レベルでのヒグマの動物地理学的歴史および北海道ヒグマの三重構造の形成過程を解明することに貢献するものである。従来の母系遺伝子ミトコンドリアDNAのデータに加え,父系遺伝子Y染色体DNAのデータを新しく加え,北海道ヒグマの独自性をさらに示した。
