Our first goal is to collect genetic information of plants belonging to the Helichrysum-Anaphalis-Pseudognaphalium clade. The plants in this clade are members of the Asteraceae and they grow in deiverse environments and have wide distribution, especially in Asia. We believe that this clade is a useful taxon for studying evolution and phylogeography, for example, adaptive evolution and distribution transition such as refugia. Therefore, our second goal is to use genetic information of the HAP clade to advance these study and now we are focusing on Anaphalis species among the HAP clade. Our goal in the future is to use these studied for many studies dealing with Asteraceae. Less...
