| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Mangroves are intertidal forest ecosystem tat distribute in tropics and subtropics of the world. Mangroves provide critical ecological services to the human being, but it has recently been destructed rapidly according to human activities. To analyze and access the genetic diversity of mangrove forest tree species in the global distribution range, we focused on five groups of tree species. Using the integrated molecular genetic methods to the samples obtained from populations scattering over the whole distribution range of species, we tried to analyze and assess genetic diversity of the mangroves. Our aims are (1) to understand the present spatial distribution pattern of genetic diversity (genetic structure), (2) to study the process that form the genetic structure, and (3) to use the information of genetic diversity for conservation of mangroves. In the study of four years for the five groups of mangroves, we obtained the results shown in the report.
