Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The broad-leaved evergreen forest in the continental Asia is known for the characterisitc plant resource use including use of tea, Japanese lacquer and refined bamboo craft. However, recently, several invasive alien plants, such as Chromolaena odorata, Mikania micrantha, Solanum viarum in northeast India, and Chromolaena odorata, Mimosa pigra, Tithonia diversifolia in Laos, have extended their distribution and transformed the native vegetation, which influenced the local livelihood.
