| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The molecular phylogenetic analyses revealed that certain pants taxa occurring at moist environments in the central Ryukyus (Amami and Okinawa Island Groups), such as Tashiroea okinawensis and Deutzia naseana var. naseana, had the most closely related taxa in China. These plants taxa unable to cross over sea because of lacking ability of long seed dispersal, and thus, route with moist environment on land is necessary for explain establishment of the disjunctive distribution patterns such as the Old Yangtze River. Therefore, it is concluded that a hypothesis of “the Old Yangtze River has been a major migration route for terrestrial plants from China Continental to the central Ryukyus” had high possibility.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
これまで形態データから示唆されていた陸生植物における中国大陸－中琉球の隔離分布が本研究の分子データ用いた解析によって支持され、植物の新たな日本列島への主要進入経路が示唆された。本研究の成果は国際植物科学会議XIX（2018年、中国）で代表者が主催したシンポジウムの主要テーマとなり、今後、国際共同研究として更に発展させることになった。また本研究の成果を活用し、巡回展「琉球の植物」を沖縄県で開催した。
