| Research Abstract |
When comparing the results of field census of sapling (defined as diameter at breast height < 5cm and taller than 30 cm) for Fagus crenata, Acer japonicum, and A micranthum with canopy dynamics, typhoon disturbance affects the population dynamic and structure of A. micranthum saplings, while A. japonicum showed moderate changes in the population dynamics during the studied period. F. crenata showed little change in population dynamics during the studied period. On the other hand, seven microsatellite markers could be selected for the analysis of the two Acer species.
