| Abstract: Polygonum cuspidatum is widely distributed in lowland where climate is warm. This plant is one of the pioneer species of early successional stages in the alpine zone of Mt.Fuji. We determined ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) content in leaves of this perennial herbaceous plant growing in the alpine zone to clear the nitrogen distribution during its short growing season. As a result, in the lower leaves, seasonal change in Rubisco content per leaf area showed one peak in mid-June and one peak in early August, and in the middle and upper leaves, the curve had a peak in mid-August. In mid-July, Rubisco content per leaf area in the middle and the upper leaves increased, whether, that in the lower leaves decreased temporarily in the middle of leaf expansion period. In the same period, leaf expansion rate was maximized. These results suggest that lower leaves temporarily play a role as the source for upper leaves in mid-July and that Rubisco decrement per leaf areawas caused by rapid expansion of leaves. |

| Abstract: The growth dynamics of shoot populations of Polygonum cuspidatum were investigated at the Houei crater (approx. 2380 m above sea level) on the south-eastern slope of Mount Fuji. At this study site, a genetic individual of this species produces a population of shoots in the form of a patch occupying a certain ground area. Generally, genetic individuals are located away from each other and hence there is little interaction between individuals. A large-sized individual occupying 31.2 m-2 ground area with shoots, a medium-sized individual (5.6 m-2) and a small-sized individual (1.4 m-2) were selected for this study. In each individual, growth was investigated at the shoot level. The results were analysed based on the diffusion model. Early in the growing season in 1990, there was little difference in LAI (leaf area index) and shoot density between the individuals. Shoots of the small- and medium-sized individuals showed size-independent height growth, whilst those of the large-sized individual showed size-dependent height growth. Consequently, small-sized shoots of the small- and the medium-sized individuals had greater RGRs of shoot height growth than those of the large individual at the early stage. As a result, in the small- and medium-sized individuals, cv (coefficient of variance) and skewness of shoot height decreased with time. Increases in cv and skewness of shoot height were found in the large-sized individual. The size-independent growth pattern of shoot height in the small- and medium-sized individuals during early growing stages is different from the growth pattern of non-clonal plant species, in which plant height growth is positively size-dependent. The existence of a regulatory mechanism of shoot height growth is suggested for the small- and medium-sized individuals. The foliage structure of the large-sized individual was different from that of the medium- and small-sized individuals. The foliage structure of small- and medium-sized individuals was similar to the theoretical "optimal foliage structure" of plants In clonal plant species, a genetic individual occupies a certain ground area with its shoots. Therefore, "optimal foliage structure" per unit ground area brings about maximization of photosynthetic rate for a genetic individual, which is consistent with the maximization of fitness at the level of the individual plant. |

| Abstract: Seedling establishment of Polygonum cuspidatum (Seib. et Zucc.) and Polygonum weyrichii (F. Schmit) var. alpinum (Maxim.), dominant early-successional species in a volcanic gravel area on Mt Fuji, Japan, was compared for current-year seedlings at 2500 m a.s.l. The rate of survival in the first winter after germination at 2500 m was 2% and 24% for P. cuspidatum and P. weyrichii seedlings, respectively, and correlated with the upper distribution limit of each (2500-2600 m for P. cuspidatum; 3200-3300 m for P. weyrichii). The critical size for survival was 12 mg dry weight for overwintering current-year seedlings of both species. At 2500 m, the percentage of seedlings that attained the critical size for survival at the end of the first growing season was 19% and 85% for P. cuspidatum and P. weyrichii, respectively. Growth curves indicated that the larger-seeded characteristic of P. weyrichii contributed to larger end-of-season size and resulted in higher rate of seedling survival at 2500 m, compared with smaller-seeded P. cuspidatum. Current-year seedlings of P. weyrichii, at least up to 3250 m, attained the first year annual growth critical for overwintering and therefore for successful seedling establishment, due to the large-seeded characteristic. At the top (3770 m) beyond the upper distribution limit of P. weyrichii, most seedlings raised artificially failed to attain the critical size for survival in the first growing period due to the reduced growing period. Failure of seedling establishment would thus appear to restrict the distribution of the species at altitudes higher than |
| Title: Growth and dispersal strategies and associations of the neophyte Polygonum cuspidatum with special regard to mowing. |

| Abstract: This paper deals with growth and dispersal strategies of the neophyte Polygonum cuspidatum, as well as its phytosociological association and the phenological development of accompanying plants on mowed and non-mowed plots. The effects of mowing on Japanese Knotweed are also considered. - Generative dispersal strategy: mapping of the distribution of plants with pistillate and staminate flowers in the Black Forest and Freiburger Bucht (Baden-Wurttemberg/Germany) shows a much greater abundance of pistillate plants of this dioecious species. Propagation by seeds should produce staminate and pistillate plants in equal proportions. In addition, seedlings are hardly ever found in the field. Germination experiments prove that seeds of Polygonum cuspidatum germinate well under greenhouse conditions. From these results we conclude that generative propagation and dispersal of Japanese Knotweed plays a minor role in the study area. Growth strategy and vegetative dispersal: after morphological analysis we distinguish three types of rhizomes: stolons which grow radially from the mother plant, older and thicker rhizomes, and basal tubers which also serve as storage organs. Above-ground and below-ground organs of Polygonum plants were harvested on 3 experimental plots. A maximum biomass production of 25 kg fresh weight was measured on one square meter. Distribution of assimilation products shows that rhizomes amount to 2/3 and above-ground organs to 1/3 of total plant biomass. Two strategies of vegetative dispersal are distinguished: a. underground invasion of adjacent areas by stolons, which grow about 50 cm per year. b. establishment of new clones at some distance from the mother plant by spreading of rhizome fragments, which can sprout if they have a minimal length of 1-1.5 cm and at least one node. 74 phytosociological releves describe the association of Polygonum cuspidatum on mowed and unmowed sites, mostly along rivers. Mowing of Japanese Knotweed over several years is evaluated positively: on the one hand the phenological data and phytosociological releves on sites dominated by Polygonum show an increase in the number of coocurring species. On the other hand, the biomass of the storage organs of this invasive plant seems to be decreasing through which we expect a long-term decimation by continued mowing. |
