Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have examined the physiological mechanisms of tree death caused by root rot disease, that have been expanded in the Bonin Islands, using the potted seedlings with artificial inoculation of Pyrrhoderma noxium. Along with the index of damage based on the microscopy images of invaded mycelia in the root tissues of potted seedlings, we investigated the response of several leaf physiological traits and the root function to the disease progress in two woody plant species with contrasting leaf economical strategies, Bischofia javanica and Raphiolepis umbellate. In both species, the depression of stomatal opening, photosynthesis and root function was found in the initial stages before the visible leaf damage and root decay, although the intrinsic mechanism of photosynthetic damage were different between species. This fact will be contribute to rapid detection of root rot diseases by field survey in the visible above-ground parts.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
小笠原・沖縄で甚大な被害を及ぼしている南根腐病の枯死について、樹木病理学の観点から調査を行った。その結果、水分欠乏による葉の萎凅・枯損よりも先に、葉で多くの生理的なストレスが発生していることが示された。このことは、病気の早期発見の手法開発にも繋がるといえる。また、小笠原での野外調査において多くのプロットで南根腐病が進行していることがわかり、本病害の対策の必要性を科学的に示した。
