Many wild populations ofChamaecyparis pisifera(Cupressaceae) are recently fragmented and surrounded by coniferous plantations. To distinguish the species composition of pollens that are dispersed to female flowers ofC. pisifera, genetic markers (Chaps-trnL01 and Chaps-trnL02) were developed based on the differences intrnL (UAA) intron region of chloroplast DNA. This region inC. pisiferacontains the site of theClaI restriction enzyme and allows the distinction ofC. pisiferafrom other Cupressaceae species after digestion of the products with the enzyme resulting in the development of cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) markers. The availability of markers was determined by single-pollen genotyping. Amplification success rates of 75.0, 58.3, and 100% were obtained for the pollens ofC. pisifera, Chamaecyparis obtusa, andCryptomeria japonica, respectively. Then, the markers and genotyping methods were applied to airborne pollen grains sampled from a remnant natural stand ofC. pisifera. Over 90% of the pollen grains were identified as belonging toC. obtusa. Thus, we concluded that abundant heterospecific pollen dispersal was present during the flowering periods ofC. pisifera. These results suggest that the remnantC. pisiferapopulation might suffer reproductive interference due to the lower chances to be pollinated with conspecific pollens.
