 note = {This is a report of a Myanmar-Japan cooperative field study exploring plant genetic resources in the northern Sagaing Region of Myanmar in November 2015. The study was conducted as part of the Grant-in-Aid Program (KAKEN) for Overseas Academic Survey of Basic Research Type A titled “Utilization and Conservation of Endangered Plant Genetic Resources and Associated Traditional Knowledge and Evaluation of Influence from Local Development Activities and International Economy in Remote Area of Minorities Dwelling” (Program code No. 25257416, Program Leader: Prof. Dr. Kazuo Watanabe, Tsukuba University). The field study was based on previous works (Domon et al. 2015a, 2015b) conducted in Hkamti and Lahe townships, which indicated that the people in the scattered villages in the hilly and mountainous areas maintained a diversity of traditional crops and varieties, mainly in slash-and-burn cultivation fields and backyard gardens. The objectives of the field study were to confirm the crop diversity in the areas and explore more plant genetic resources, as well as to gather relevant information including the surrounding areas. The main target areas were Lahe township and neighboring Layshee township, which are two of the three townships in the Naga Self-Administered Zone. We interviewed village people and collected plant genetic resources together with location data and information about plant species vernacular names, agricultural practices and food preparation or other uses. Slash-and-burn cultivation was commonly practiced on mountain slopes where rice, other cereals, food legume, roots and tuber crops, various vegetables and miscellaneous herbs and spices are planted in mixed cropping. On the other hand, terraced-rice farming is commonly practiced using mountain stream water for irrigation in Layshee township, while slash-and-burn cultivation was of the secondary importance there. We collected 82 samples of plant genetic resources for food and agriculture, which included rice (46 samples), wild azuki bean (4), chili pepper (3), perilla (3), rice bean (3), tree spinach (3), foxtail millet (2), Job’s tears (2), cowpea (2), soybean (2), Chinese peppers (2), amaranth (1), brown mustard (1), cucumber (1), black seed squash (1), lablab bean (1), basil (1), Italian parsley (1), common bean (1), sesame (1), and sorghum (1). The collected plant materials were divided into two subsets - one to be conserved at the Seed Bank of Myanmar while the other will be maintained at NIAS Genetic Resources Center (NIAS GRC, now NARO GRC) in Japan, after transfer there in accordance with national and international legislation and operative procedures.},
