| Research Abstract |
To examine the relative genetic contributions of pollen flow and seed dispersal to overall gene flow in a natural population of Pinus densiflora along a ridge, DNA of two different tissues; namely, embryo and megagametophyte (maternally inherited haploid tissue) ; of dispersed seeds (a total of 1,709 seeds) collected during five years (2003 to 2007) were separately analyzed. And then, the genetic compositions of both paternally and maternally derived gametes of the seeds were accurately evaluated. Using the principal coordinate analysis (PCA), paternally and maternally derived gametes were separately plotted on the scattergram clearly, indicating that they have different genetic compositions. It is suggested that the gametic heterogeneity between patentages largely contributes to the overall genetic variability at the seed dispersal stage of this population.
