| Research Abstract |
I sequenced the genome of Arabidopsis halleri subsp. gemmifera by using next-generation DNA sequencer to explore the adaptive genes for local habitats. Furthermore, I examined the allele frequency changes from 100 years ago to the present in some functional genes related to environmental adaptation using specimen samples. As a result, rapid allele frequency changes during the last 20 years were detected in important functional genes.
