Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The survey was conducted in unfinished Northern mountainous area in Vietnam for obtaining new species related to D. kaki and we found several trees which bear pubescent fruits. However, these trees seem to be the same species which we collected previously in Vietnam, so that there are no new species from this survey. In addition, although we conducted resurvey of Diospyros spp. in germplasm repository of China and the campus of Kasetsart University in Thailand, we could not find new species closely related to D. kaki. The phylogenetic studies from DNA sequences of ITS and matK regions in “ye-mao-shi”, which was assumed to closely relate to D. kaki from morphological characteristics, is indicated that this species should be included with D. glandulosa which assumed to be ancestor of D. kaki, due to matK analysis, not due to ITS analysis. This contradiction of the results from each analysis should be corrected by the further analysis in the future.
