Abstract

The sustainability of Cypripedium japonicum, a rare plant designated by the Korea Forest Service, is threatened due to artificial factors such as habitat loss and climate change etc. and internal factors such as changes in biological properties of the habitat etc. but conservation research has not been performed in South Korea. The objective of this study is to establish the species conservation strategies by analyzing the characteristics of their habitats, including: 1) Population characteristics, and 2) habitat analysis of the vegetation and abiotic environments. From April to September, 2014, population characteristics [density (stems $m^{-2}$), flowering rate (%), and leaf area ($cm^2$)] in Cypripedium japonicum habitats such as Chuncheon (CC), Hwacheon (HC), Muju (MJ), and Gwangyang (GY) and vegetation characteristics (plant sociological research and ordination analysis), and abiotic environments [temperature ($^{\circ}C$), relative humidity (%), transmitted light ($mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}d^{-1}$) and canopy openness (%)] were measured. Cypripedium japonicum was mainly distributed at elevation 450 to 990 m and 5 to $30^{\circ}$ slope. Slope direction was shown as 0 to $110^{\circ}$. Habitats temperature (mean $18.94^{\circ}C$) was well matched to seasonal changes. Differences among sites showed greater level according to latitude difference. It showed the highest in habitat, GY located in the South. On the other hand, relative humidity (77.38%) didn't show much difference among sites. The average degree of canopy openness was 18.17%. It showed the highest at HC (22.1%) and the lowest at MJ (16.1%). The average degree of transmitted light was $9.1mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}d^{-1}$. It showed the highest at CC ($10.6mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}d^{-1}$) and the lowest at GY ($6.87mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}d^{-1}$). Chlorophyll content showed average 26.12 SPAD. It showed the highest at MJ (30.64 SPAD value) and the lowest at HC (23.69 SPAD value). Leaf area was average $253.35cm^2$. It showed the highest at CC ($281.51cm^2$) and the lowest at HC ($238.23cm^2$).

연구결과에 기초하여 내린 시험적 결론은 다음과 같다. 광릉요강꽃은 주로 해발 450~990 m, 경사는 $5{\sim}30^{\circ}$의 범위에 분포하였고, 사면향은 $0{\sim}110^{\circ}$로 나타났다. 자생지 기온 ($18.94^{\circ}C$)은 계절 변화와 유사한 경향이었고 장소 간의 차이는 위도에 따른 차이가 강하였으며, 가장 남쪽에 위치한 GY에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 반면에 상대습도는 지역 간의 차이는 크지 않았다. 수관열림도 (%)는 평균 18.17이었으며, HC (22.1)에서 가장 높게 나타났고 MJ (16.1)에서 가장 낮게 나타났다. 광량 ($mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}d^{-1}$)은 평균 9.1이었으며, CC (10.6) 가장 높게 나타났고 GY (6.87)에서 가장 낮게 나타났다. 엽록소 함량 (SPAD value)은 평균 26.12로 나타났으며, MJ (30.64)에서 가장 높았고 HC (23.69)에서 가장 낮았다. 엽면적 ($cm^2$)은 평균 $253.35cm^2$이었으며, CC (281.51)에서 가장 높았고, HC (238.23)에서 가장 낮았다. 자생지 층위별 우점식생으로 교목층 식생은 물푸레나무, 고로쇠나무 및 층층나무가 우점하는 것으로 나타났고, 관목층은 고추나무, 초본층은 십자고사리, 단풍취가 우점하는 것으로 나타났다. 식분의 서열화 결과, I상에서는 수관울폐도와 지온, II축상에서는 토양노출, 해발고도 등의 환경요인이 높은 상관관계를 보였다. 우리의 연구 결과는 개체군 동태 예측 및 광릉요강꽃의 장기적인 보전 전략 및 복원에 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 생각된다.
