当中国的学者非常关心水稻在大陆由野生种向栽培种驯化的时间、地域以及方法时,在日本,研究者们好象更加关心这一农作物由大陆传入日本的路线与时间等问题。这样两类的研究当然有着密切的关联,同样是为了科学地解释世界最大宗粮食作物的起源与早期传播的重大 While Chinese scholars are very concerned about the timing, geography, and methods of paddy domestication from wild species to cultivated species in mainland China, researchers in Japan seem to be more concerned with such issues as the course and timing of the introduction of this crop from the mainland to Japan. Of course, there is a close link between these two types of research, as well as for the scientific explanation of the great origins and early spread of the world’s largest food crops
