Abstract

A locally adapted plant population under harsh environmental changes might survive for a long generation through maintaining proper level of genetic diversity. When it happens losing the genetic diversity too much fast, the population could be declining and probably become extinct. An isolated small population of Populus davidiana was investigated to study out the genetic diversity and the fine-scale spatial genetic structure. The estimated number of adult trees in the population of Mt. Worak, South Korea, was 350 in the total area of $14,000m^2$. The number of adults in a study plot ($70m{\times}70m$) was 123. The average age was 16-year-old and a 32-year-old tree was the oldest. The distribution of individuals was slightly aggregated in the plot. Sixty-one among the 123 individuals were randomly sampled to estimate genetic variation using AFLP markers. One hundred fifty-one (77%) of total 196 amplicons were polymorphic from six AFLP primer combinations. The average number of loci per primer combination was 32.7 (S.D.=7.2). Expected heterozygosity ($H_e$) and Shannon's diversity index (S.I.) were 0.154 and 0.254, respectively. These values were extremely lower than those of other P. davidiana populations in South Korea. Genetic patchiness was showed within 21 meters by spatial autocorrelation analysis and the isolated small size of population might be mainly attributed to the formation of such small patch size.

변화하는 자연환경에서 식물이 생존하기 위해서는 적절한 유전다양성을 유지할 뿐 아니라 지역적응성을 갖추어야 세대를 성공적으로 이어나갈 수 있다. 만약 유전다양성이 급격히 감소하게 된다면 집단이 쇠퇴하고 소멸 위험성이 커지게 된다. 본 연구는 주변 집단으로 부터 화분이나 종자의 유입이 어려운 소규모 사시나무 집단의 유전구조를 구명하였다. 월악산 미륵리의 사시나무림은 전체 분포면적 $14,000m^2$에 성목은 350개체로 추정되며, 임분내에 설정한 $70m{\times}70m$ 조사구에 출현하는 123개체 중 61개체를 대상으로 AFLP 마커를 이용하여 유전변이를 분석하였다. 조사구내 사시나무의 수령은 평균 16년 최고 32년생이었으며, 개체의 공간적 분포는 약한 밀집 형태를 이루고 있었다. AFLP primer 6조합에서 196개 증폭산물을 확인하였으며, 이 중 151개는 다형성을 보였다. primer 조합당 평균 유전자좌수는 32.7(표준편차=7.2), 이형접합도 기대치($H_e$)는 0.154, Shannon의 다양성 지수(S.I.)는 0.254로 나타나서, 월악산 사시나무는 우리나라 사시나무 집단 평균에 비하여 매우 낮은 유전다양성을 갖고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 공간적 유전구조는 24 m 이내에서 분포하는 개체들 간에 유전적 유사성이 나타났으며, 소규모 면적과 고립된 분포지 특성으로 인하여 비교적 작은 유전군락이 형성된 것으로 생각된다.
