Phenology, dry matter production, population structure and environmental conditions were examined inErythronium japonicumDecne plants growing on the floor of a deciduous broad-leavedQuercus mongolicaforest (Q.m. stand), an evergreen coniferousCryptomeria japonicaplantation (C. j.stand) and bare ground left for 3 years after the clearing of a forest composed of youngQ. mongolicaandPinus densifloratrees (bare stand) in the cool temperate zone of Japan. The average population density of the plants growing at theQ.m.stand was much higher than that observed at the bare stand, whereas the average number of flowering plants at the former stand was less than half of that at the latter. The population density and number of flowering plants growing at theC. j.stand were both less than 30% of those at theQ. m.stand. The number of seedlings at theQ. m.stand was much more than that at the bare andC. j.stands. Their survivorship rate over 1 year at the former stand also seems to be significantly higher than those at the other stands. Their aboveground and belowground parts at the bare stand were exposed to more severe heat and water stress than those at the other two stands. The net production per leaf area of the plants growing at theQ. m.stand was two and six times larger than those at the bare andC. j.stands, respectively. The plants at the bare stand did not use the available solar radiation as efficiently for dry matter production through photosynthesis as those growing at theQ. m.stand, whereas those at theC. j.stand are strongly restricted in their photosynthetic process by the significantly limited light condition on the floor of the evergreen coniferous plantation. The differences in the number of plants reaching sexual maturity, the density and structure of the population and the net production between their three habitats are discussed here from the standpoint of differences in environmental conditions.
