The normal growth of many tree species depends on colonization by ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi, which improve nutrient absorption from soils. In the early stages of primary succession, available nutrients such as nitrogen are quite limited. Thus, ECM fungi strongly influence the survival and growth of host plants in these severe environments. On the south-east side of Mt. Fuji, the vegetation is patchily distributed, like vegetation islands in a sea of volcanic desert, and at elevations from 1,500 to 1,600 m the total vegetation coverage is only 5-6%, indicating an early stage of primary succession. At this site, Salix reinii, an alpine dwarf willow, is distributed in some vegetation patches and is virtually the exclusive ECM host, contributing over 99% of the total ECM hosts. In the present study, we studied ECM colonization on current-year seedlings of pioneer tree species, including Salix reinii, Betula ermanii and Larix kaempferi, and also studied the growth and nutrient content of them. Ectomycorrhizae were almost absent on S. reinii seedlings that were transplanted on bare ground and in willow-absent vegetation patches. On the other hand, seedlings that were transplanted beside mature willows extensively formed ectomycorrhizae, and the growth of them was considerably enhanced. By molecular analyses, the most fungal constituents on these ECM root tips were identified as the species colonizing mature willows, such as Inocybe lacera, Laccaria spp. and Scleroderma bovista. Seedlings of L. kaempferi and B. ermanii also formed ectomycorrhizae beside the mature willows, but not without mature willows. These results indicate that existing mature willows act as ECM inocula for pioneer seedlings and enhance the survival and growth of them, leading the vegetation succession.

Santalum boninense Tuyama is a semi-parasitic shrub. The species is an endangered and endemic species in the Ogasawara (Bonin) Islands. Total number of trees is estimated less than two hundred fifty. For conservation of this species, the real genet number must be estimated, but not the ramet number. It is said that the fruiting scarcely occurs and it is difficult to produce the next generation in nature.The purpose of this study is 1) to clarify distribution of S. boninense and 2) to examine the genetic structure. Six populations were found in the Ogasawara Islands. Three populations are in Chichi Island with 8 to 50 ramets each. The other three are in Haha Islands with 8 to 50 ramets. Haha Island populations have taller trees in the mean than Chichi Island ones. ITS1 has 376bp in the length while ITS2 has 358bp. There are no variations in 71 shrubs in 6 populations in ITS1 and ITS2. The spacer regeon of psbM-trnD in Chloroplast DNA genome consists of 1001bp. The spacer regeon of trnR-trnN in chloroplast DNA is composed of 630bp. No sequence variations were founded in these spacers. No DNA sequence variations in S. boninensis show low gene diversity of this species. The shrubs within a population may composed of one or a few genets. Low or no genetic variation is often related to poor fluiting rate due to imbreeding depression. The rare fluiting of S. boninense may be explained by the low genetic diversity and frequent clonal growth.

Microsatellites, comprising tandemly repeated short nucleotide sequences, are ubiquitous in eukaryotic genomes. The tendency of microsatellites to be codominant and highly polymorphic is a major factor responsible for their popularity as genetic markers for ecological and evolutionary studies.In this study, the high mutation of a microsatellie was shown in leaves collected from different parts from one indvidual of Robinia pseudoacacia, suggesting that it should be checked the mutation carefully before using this kind of markers to investigate individual genotypes and paternity analysis.

A small population of Picea glehnii isolatedly distributing at Mt. Hyachine in Tohoku area suffered considerable losses from mudflow in 1948. At non-mudflow place 78 individuals with DBH>20cm and 62 ones with 20cm>DBH>5cm survive now, while about 130 young trees with DBH>5cm grow at the post-mudflow place. Analysis on genetic diversity of these populations were carried out using microsatellite markers. The population which holds the biggest genetic diversity is the individuals with DBH>20cm at non-mudflow place. In comparison with this population, the population with 20cm>DBH>5cm at non-mudflow place keep 79.2% of allelic numbers and 95.1% of gene diversity, and the population with DBH>5cm at post-mudflow place holds 89.6% of allelic numbers and 90.3% of gene diversity. In both places in non-mudflow and post-mudflow, young generation trees have relatively low level of genetic diversity.

Indonesia has one of the largest areas of deforestation in the world. From the perspective of tropical forest conservation, only the company which is licensed from the government can cut the natural forests because of restricting illegal cutting. The biggest forestry company in Indonesia is Perm Perhutani. So their forests need to be managed properly for sustainable use. Teak (
Tectona grandis) which covers 55% of all Perhutani management area is also main plantation species in Java Island. The main objective of this study is to identify the teak plantation areas and show the suitable site for teak plantation by using Satellite Remote Sensing and GIS techniques in Cianjur Prefecture, West Java.
The satellite images used were 12 scenes which include Landsat MSS 1976, 83, TM 1989,91,92,97,98, and ETM+ 2001. First, the Modified Minnaert function was applied to the satellite data to reduce topographic effects. Second, the distribution of the teak plantation area was extracted from the entire prefecture through both supervised classification by maximum likelihood and vegetation indices thresholding. And also the trend of land cover change from 1976 to 2001 was estimated by land cover classification. Finally, the extracted teak plantation area was overlayed with other geological, topographical, and watershed layers to analyze and evaluate site suitability for teak plantation. The conditions estimated from this process clarified the relationships between geological, topographical, and watershed factors, and the site quality index recorded in the forest register for teak.

Visible and near infrared images of six scenes of ASTER , two scenes of IKONOS and two scenes of Quick Bird were tested. Measured horizontal positional error of the ASTER, IKONOS and Quick Bird from geo-reference information attached to the products were 57.8m, 37.6m, 68.6m 87.8m, 69.7m and 27.0m ,14.7m and 16.5m, 7.0m and 26.7m respectively. It was considered that the ASTER data were needed to be shifted whole and then geometrically corrected again, because they seemed to contain systematic error and deformation from elevation difference. It was considered that the piecewise affine transformation with small scale maps was suitable for secondly correction for IKONOS and Quick Bird data, because they seemed to contain deformation from elevation difference.

In this study, we examined the effects of the sampling density which is lead to the different scan angle of high-resolution helicopter borne LIDAR (Nakanihon Air Service) for estimating forest attributes in dense Japanese forests which mainly located in the steep and topographically complex area. We established three plots (about 0.02ha) on the upper, middle and bottom of the slope (about 40 degrees of inclination) within a 47-year-old sugi (
Criptomeria japonica D. Don) plantation, and compared the accuracy of estimates by three deferent scan angle laser data for stem number and mean tree height. It was suggested that the procedures presented in this study can estimate stem number and mean tree height accurately regardless of different scan angle.

Predicting the number of available GPS satellites is very important to utilize GPS under tree canopies. We have produced estimating models taking topography and vegetation (Yoshimura, et al., 1999; Hasegawa,
et al., 2002) into consideration, but the model overestimates the number of satellites in case of few satellites. Because the model uses only the relationship between a satellites elevation and whether the satellite is available or not, it cannot express momentary loss of satellites signals. In this study we tried to introduce the probability with a concept of time series into the model, and we examined the conformity the new model. The estimated probability distribution of the number of available satellites by using Monte Carlo simulation with these probability values is broadly consistent with the observed distribution.

In March 1999, we measured the number of bacteria in the soil where
Pinus thunbergii grew on the scoriae accumulated at volcano eruptions at Miyake-Jima, Izu Islands, Japan. The number of bacteria was high on the surface of ectomycorrhizae of
P. thunbergii and in mycosphere soil of ectomycorrhizal fungi associated with this tree. Nodulation capacity of
Alnus sieboldiana was high in rhizosphere of
A. sieboldiana and low in the mycosphere of ectomycorrhizal fungi of pine. No nodulation was observed in non-mycosphere soil of this site. Abundant mycorrhizae were formed on alder seedling cultivated in rhizosphere of the alder and on pine seedling cultivated in mycosphere soil of ectomycorrhizal fungi of the pine. No ectomycorrhizae were formed in pine and alder seedlings cultivated in non-mycosphere soil. In October 2001,
Frankia distribution was also investigated in newly fallen ash during eruption in 2000 and its underlying soils. No or little nodulation was observed in newly fallen ash; abundant root nodules were formed in the underlying soil developed before the eruption in 2000. Ectomycorhizas also formed in the seedling cultivated in the underlying soil.
