| Research Abstract |
We developed a method for DNA analysis of ancient pollen from lake sediments and glaciers to retrieve genetic information for past spatial dynamics of intra- and/or inter-specific lineage. We reported genetic analysis of fossil pollen collected from lake sediment in central Norway and showed that conifer trees survived in ice-free refugia of Scandinavia during the last glaciation. And we compared DNA- and pollen-based vegetation analysis of the lake sediment samples. We also reported DNA analysis of Pinus pollen grains collected from Belukha glacier in Russia and identified them at the section level in the genus. These results have major implications for plant phylogeography by allowing direct analysis of past genetic information in ancient pollen.
