| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Genus Thujopsis is endemic to Japan and consists of two varieties: T. dolabrata var. dolabrata, which is distributed mainly on the Pacific side, and T. dolabrata var. hondae, which is distributed mainly on the Sea of Japan side. Testing the hypothesis that there is a difference in winter cold tolerance between the two varieties, no difference was detected from November to early March during cold acclimation, thus rejecting the initial hypothesis. On the other hand, T. dolabrata var. dolabrata presented slightly higher cold tolerance in September-October and late March, suggesting that local adaptation to the provenance may occur at the preacclimation and the deacclimation stage. Sugar content analysis did not show any difference among the provenances. In addition, a T. dolabrata cDNA database with detailed annotations was developed for future use of comparison by expressed genes.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
冬季の耐寒性と糖含有量に変種間差が見られなかったことから、両変種の分化は冬季の低温に対する適応に起因するという仮説は否定された。一方、低温に順化していない期間の耐寒性にわずかな差が見られたことから、アスナロ属の変種の分化には仮説と異なる環境要因への適応、もしくは集団の隔離等の歴史的経緯が関わっている可能性が示された。本研究で整備されたcDNAデータベースは、今後多様なアスナロ属の遺伝学的研究、ひいては育種等に応用することができる。
