| Research Abstract |
We discovered the fungus(Leptosphaerulina japonica) which is parasitic on a cedar male flower in 2004.We examined the development of the cedar pollen scattering prevention technique using fungi by inoculation tests artificially. As a result, after inoculating by using the mycelium suspension which added 10% of commercial bean oil in cedar mail flower along the growth stage(growth stage) of the cedar male flower, we succeeded in letting a male flower wither and die at approximately 35-65% of frequency.
