| Research Abstract |
I investigated morphological, ecological, and genetical features of Nuphar japonica DC., N. oguraensis Miki, and N. submersa Shiga & Kadono to assess evolutionary process of leaf morphology, life form, and heterophylly in the genus Nuphar Sm. (Nymphaeaceae). In crossing experiment, these species were cross compatible, and I created artificial F1 hybrids with each species for the future ecogenomics study.
