 note = {We had already conducted a field survey throughout the Kanto region and we proceeded to Tohoku. We visited several villages in Iwate and Yamagata Prefectures from October 22 to 26, 1990 to collect local varieties. A total of fifty nine samples were collected. As food legumes, 18 samples of soybean (Glycine max), 6 of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) and 10 of adzuki bean (Vigna angularis) were collected. Although three of the legume samples were designated as "Kuro-adzuki (black adzuki bean)", they included not only adzuki bean but also cowpea and common bean. Compared with the accessions from the Kanto region, the variation in food legumes were limited in this area. For millets, 4 samples of common millet (Panicum miliaceum), 4 of foxtail millet (Setaria italica), 3 of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) and 2 of Japanese barnyard millet (Echinochloa utilis) were collected. Two samples of S. italica have been cultivated since the Meiji era in Rikuzen-takada, Iwate prefecture. Three samples of grain amaranths (Amaranthus hypochondriacus), one of job's tears (Coix lacryma-jobi), 2 of buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum), one of tartary buckwheat (F. tataricum) and 5 of perilla (Perilla frutescens) were also collected in Iwate prefecture. One sample of rice (Oryza sativa), locally called Nakashin or Kizunaimochi, was a cold-tolerant variety selected from local varieties by a farmer, Mr. Montaro Michimata. Sixteen of the accessions were collected from a restaurant in Sawauchi-mura (village), Iwate prefecture. This restaurant requests farmers in the village to cultivate perilla, grain amaranth, sorghum, tartary buckwheat, etc., and sells the seeds as souvenir for tourists. Most of local varieties were kept by women who have special interest in traditional foods. Several accessions have been introduced from other areas recently, suggesting that particular local varieties have spread over wide areas through seed exchange recently, resulting in the simplification of crop varieties. Most of the farmers in those areas had never cultivated millets since more than 30 years ago like in the Kanto region. It is thus important to collect millet germplasm in the Tohoku region.},
