Abstract

Genetic variation in Asaum misandrum, a woodland herb in Korea, was investigated based on allozyme analysis with starch gel electrophoresis. All of previously reported populations in Korea were sampled and seven loci from six enzymes were analyzed. Overall genetic variation of A. misandrum population showed considerably high levels of genetic variation within the species (A = 2.05, P = 71.4, $H_E$ = 0.294). A positive $F_{IS}$ value of A. misandrum indicated overall deficiency of heterozygotes, and a low $F_{ST}$ value (0.112) meant very little differentiation among populations. Factors contributing to the high levels of genetic diversity found within populations of A. misandrum include population maintenance via wide distribution range from Korea to Japan and primarily outcrossing breeding system. Although it showed moderate genetic diversity level, most habitats of the species were scattered and discontinuous. Besides, low numbers of individuals were found in the most habitats and individuals are collected frequently from the wild due to the unique shape of the flowers as well as the rarity of the species. Thus, there is a need to set up a reasonable conservation strategies including the maintenance mechanism of genetic diversity of A. misandrum.

한국과 일본에만 한정 분포하는 각시족도리풀(Asarum misandrum) 4개 집단의 자생지 상태와 합리적인 보전전략의 수립을 위하여 7개의 allozyme marker를 이용하여 유전적 다양성과 구조를 분석하였다. 각시족도리풀 집단의 대립 유전자의 수(A)는 2.05개, 다형적 유전좌위의 비율(P)은 71.4%, 이형접합체의 평균 기대치($H_E$)는 0.294를 나타내어 분포 역이 넓고 주로 내륙에 분포하는 특산식물과 유사하거나 다소 높은 수준의 유전적 다양도를 유지하고 있는데, 그 이유는 자가수분이 가능하지만 타가수정을 주로 하기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 유전적 구조분석 결과 집단간 $F_{IS}$는 양의 값을 나타내었고 집단간 유전적 분화도는 매우 낮은 결과(0.112)를 보였다. 각시족도리풀의 자생지가 비록 적정 수준의 유전적 다양도을 보이고 있지만, 한국과 일본의 남쪽지방에만 한정분포하는 특징, 불연속적이고 분산되어있는 자생지의 상태, 대부분의 자생지에서 적은 개체가 나타나며 특이하고 희귀한 꽃 때문에 남획될 가능성이 높다는 점 등은 이 식물의 보전을 위한 관심을 필요로 한다. 각시족도리풀은 최근에 기록되어 현재 희귀식물로 지정된 종은 아니지만 보전적 가치가 높다고 판단되며 이 종의 보전을 위해 종 생물학적 정보를 수집하고 유전적 변이의 유지기작을 포함한 합리적인 보전전략의 수립이 요구된다.
