4 Preface This book is intended to be a record of the Biotechnology-Assisted Re/Afforestation Project in the Asia-Pacific Region (BIO-REFOR) since 1992, conducted in cooperation with the International Union of Forest Research Organizations (lufro). The purpose of the project is to promote exchanges of information of fundamental research on indigenous species in the Asia-Pacific Region in order to restore natural forests. The production, cultivation, and maintenance of forest tree species provide highly sustainable production systems that conserve soils, the microenvironment, and biodiversity The key technology for biomass production of forests is propagation via micropropagation or traditional propagation. However, there are many recalcitrant species among useful forest trees to be propagated in large numbers. Recent advances in mycorrhizal technology and in vitro culture have made it possible to commercially propagate useful trees for re/afforestation. In this book, comprehensive information is provided on propagation, mycorrhizal inoculation, and reforestation of economically and environmentally important forest trees, information that usually is available only in widely scattered resources. Here, we include a wide area of the ecology and physiology of dipterocarps as a general overview, and then cover propagation techniques, mycorrhizal symbiosis, man-made forests, and biodiversity in the Asia-Pacific region. Our purpose is to provide information on the progress being made in biotechnology-assisted re/afforestation. In vitro culture combined with mycorrhizal inoculation has become a powerful tool for large-scale increases in forest trees, conservation of biodiversity, and reforestation comprehensive information that until now has been difficult to find in one volume. This compilation provides a valuable resource for scientists, students, policy makers, and industrialists concerned with reforestation. We would like to express our sincere thanks for the financial support of Japan's OD A for the BIO-REFOR project as well as support for this book by a Grant-in-Aid for Publication of Scientific Research Results from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. Finally, we are very grateful to Dr. Masaya Masumori of the University of Tokyo for his work in the preparation of this book. The Editors
