Research Abstract |
To elucidate the cause and effect of highly decreased population size of the Arctic lamprey, Lethenteron japonicum in the stream life period, the ecological field research for larvae and upstream migrating adults, and population genetic analysis of the Ishikari River populations were carried out. As a result, it was made clear that both the soft mud quantity on the stream bed and the abundance of detritus originated from the litter of fallen leaves played an important role for high survival of lamprey larvae. In addition, it was found that the water depth was important for spawning success of upstream migrating lamprey adults. The results from microsatellite DNA analysis showed the genetic diversity of Ishikari River populations decreased in recent years. On the basis of these results, we proposed some improvement plans of stream environments to restore the population size of this lamprey species.
