AboutAbout the lab
Protecting threatened plants across national borders
Associate Professor Nakamura conducts research to protect threatened plants of Hokkaido and Northeast Asia.
The lab also does fieldwork overseas. It sorts out threatened species whose classification differs from country to country, and evaluates their distinctiveness and conservation priority from a global perspective.
His specialties are plant systematics and phylogeography, and he also studies vascular plants of Asia and Oceania.
He belongs to the Botanic Garden (Chuo-ku, Sapporo) of the Field Science Center for Northern Biosphere.
Key terms
- Phylogeography
- A field that examines genetic differences among organisms together with their distribution, to explore where and how they diverged and spread
- Ex situ conservation
- Protecting endangered organisms by growing them or storing their seeds outside their natural habitat, such as in a botanic garden
- Genetic diversity
- The variety in how much genes differ among individuals and populations within the same species
ResearchResearch themes
The lab makes use of the Botanic Garden to study the conservation of threatened plants of Hokkaido and Northeast Asia. Through work that spans fieldwork, building frameworks for conservation in natural habitats, and building conservation systems at the botanic garden, it aims to establish a conservation science for threatened plants.
