| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In general, it is difficult to examine past ecological events, but specimens deposited in herbaria would be useful for such study because the specimens keep their DNA as when they were collected. These materials can be used to examine past hybridization between indigenous plant species and invasive alien species. We examined the possible values of the specimens in herbaria for study on past natural hybridization between native and invasive plants. In addition, field surveys and molecular genetic studies on on-going hybridization between two Rumex species, of which one is native and other is exotic, were conducted.
