Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To investigate the requirements for floral initiation of mass flowering trees, we monitored expression of key flowering pathway genes, meteorological conditions and endogenous resources over four years in Shorea curtisii and S. leprosula. We introduced a dynamical mathematical model based on cues from drought and low temperature that coincide with activation of flowering gene to explain floral initiation of dipterocarps. The long duration from signal to trigger of 2-3 months was predicted by the model. To investigate the relationship between nitrogen and flowering in Japanese beech, nitrogen supply in the soil were monitored. Inorganic nitrogen contents peaked in summer and gradually decreased from 2014 to 2016. Comparing the expression pattern of key flowering gene in F. crenata and soil nitrogen content showed that masting of Japanese beech is not caused by the fluctuation in the supply of soil nitrogen.
