Research Abstract

Our research activities were focused on the following three themes.
1.To determine the importance of apomixis in the reproductive biology of dipterocarps we have carried out analysis of nuclear microsatellite variation in a population of Dipterocarpus alatus. The results provided first genetic evidence for the occurrence of apomixis in the species and indicated that it can reduce the levels of genetic variation within populations.
2.To determine the levels and patterns of genetic polymorphism in various members of the Dipterocarpaceae family we have studied nucleotide polymorphism in two nuclear genes(GapC and Pgi) in populations of Shorea acuminata, S.curtisii S.parvifolia and S.leprosula. The study suggested recent speciation of the family but compared to other tree species considerable population differentiation. Furthermore, it provided first genetic evidence for the occurrence of a widespread inter-specific hybridization in dipterocarps.
3.To determine phylogenetic position of endemic dipterocarp species native to Sri Lanka we have constructed molecular phylogeny for 74 species of Dipterocarpaceae based on three chloroplast DNA sequences. Results of this work revealed divergent character of Sri Lankan species, which is probably due to their prolonged isolation from the other Asian members of the family.
In the course of the project, three MSc and two BSc programs were completed.
