| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Oki islands have unique forests, where the relic tree species of the glacial age grow in the warm-temperate zone. In the result of the survey of the distribution of the relic species, Pinus parviflora grows on the rocky mountains, Thuja standishii grows from the coastal area to the mountain area, and Cercidiphyllum japonicum grows in the riparian area. Although Quercus crispula grows from the coastal to the mountain area, they distributed mainly in the northern area of the islands, because it’s cool and it has a lot of precipitation due to the seasonal northwest wind. Also, in the result of the analysis of the genetic diversity, it is suggested that T. standishii made Oki Islands a refuge during the glacial age. Therefore, Oki Islands are important places for understanding the spread of trees by the climate change in Japan.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
隠岐諸島は日本で６番目に認定された世界ジオパークであり，暖温帯林に冷温帯の樹種が存在する植生の固有性は，世界ジオパークの認定に大きな役割を果たした。本研究成果は，こうした固有の森林植生の維持機構を明らかにし，さらに隠岐諸島が氷河期のレフュジアとして重要な役割を果たした可能性を示した。本成果は，隠岐諸島の森林資源の保全や活用においての学術的基礎資料を提供するものである。
