King cherry (왕벚 wangbeoj, 왕벚나무 wangbeojnamu or 왕벚꽃 wangbeojkkoch, Hanja: 王벚나무) is a Korean native cherry tree originated from the Jeju Island. It is a distinct species from Japanese native Yoshino cherry. King cherry is a rare plant and listed as a Critically Endangered species.[2] As of 1998, 33 King cherry trees were growing around Mt. Halla in the Jeju Island.[1] According to Koidzumi, King cherry is erroneously believed to be discovered by a French missionary Taquet although what he discovered was a different species.
There have been disputes over the origin of king cherry and Yoshino cherry. In 2007, a study conducted on the comparison of king cherry and Yoshino cherry concluded that the these trees were categorized as distinct species.[3] However, in Korea, king cherry is still believed to be the same species as Yoshino cherry.[4] In Korea most of the places for cherry blossom festivals, including Yeouido and Jinhae, are still planted with Japanese Yoshino cherry trees.[5][6]
Name
In 1901, Yoshino cherry was given a scientific name Prunus Yedoensis by Ninzo Matsumura after its place of origin Yedo (current day Tokyo).[7] In early 1900s, king cherry was thought to be the same species as Yoshino cherry, it is called Prunus yedoensis, the same scientific name as Yoshino cherry. After Ernest Henry Wilson suggested Yoshino cherry is a hybrid between Prunus subhirtella var. ascendens (Edo higan) and Prunus lannesiana (Oshima zakura) in 1916,[8] Yoshino cherry became to be called Prunus × yedoensis. However king cherry still remained to be called Prunus yedoensis which is originally given to Yoshino cherry.
The Korean name wangbeojnamu or wangbeojkkoch does not distinguish Yoshino cherry from king cherry because they have been thought to be the same species. If necessary, Yoshino cherry is referred to as someiyoshino (소메이요시노), a transliteration of a Japanese name for Yoshino cherry.
The Korean name wangbeojnamu (왕벚나무, king cherry) was created in 1962, until then it was called ‘’sakulanamu’’ (사쿠라나무, sakura) or ‘’teolbeojnamu’’ (털벚나무, hair cherry).[9] Wangbeojnamu means "king cherry tree" while wangbeojkkoch means "king cherry blossom".
Characteristics
King cherry is quite rare in number in its habitat. In 1908, a single tree was discovered by Taquet although according to Koidzumi it was a different species.[10] In 1932, Koidzumi discovered a single tree.[10] In 1962, the first Korean official plant resource survey team was established and found three trees. Next year in 1963, the team found another three trees.[11] In 1965, Han Chang-yeol reported that wild cherry trees which grow in Mt. Halla in the Jeju Island are mostly Prunus subhirtella var. pendula form. ascendens (Edo higan) and Prunus donarium (Yamazakura) and King cherry is rare in number, around 10 individuals, having been found in a half century. [12] In 1998, Kim Chan-soo reported that 33 King cherry trees were found around Mt. Halla.[1]
King cherry is morphologically similar to Yoshino cherry. When Yo Takenaka went to the Juju Island in 1933, He observed that the King cherry's hairs on calyx lobes and on the lower side of leaves were less numerous, and the peduncles were shorter.[13] In 1998, Chan-soo Kim studied the morphological variation on 18 characters in flowers, leaves, fruits, and seeds. Most characters of King cherry were smaller in size than those of Yoshino cherry although the limits of variation of the characters were somewhat wide in King cherry. The most prominent difference is that the calyx tube of Yoshino cherry is cup-shaped, whereas it is wedge-shaped in King cherry, in addition, the inflorescences of Yoshino cherry are corymbose while those of King cherry are umbelliferous.[1][14]
History
- In 1908, a French missionary Taquet discovered a native cherry in Jeju islands, Korea. In 1912, a German botanist Koehne gave it a scientific name of Prunus yedoensis var. nudiflora as it deserves to be a separate variety from Yoshino cherry according to the variations observed.[15][Notes] Although this species called Eishu zakura is a variation of Yoshino cherry, from then it was misrepresented that Yoshino cherry was growing naturally in Jeju Island.[10]
- In 1932, Koidzumi discovered that Yoshino cherry (currently identified as King cherry) along with the cherry which was found by Taquet were growing naturally in Jeju Island and reported that Yoshino cherry is originated on Jeju island. Also Koidzumi identified that Prunus yedoensis var. nudiflora which was found by Taquet and named by Koehne is an independent species from King cherry and named it Prunus nudiflora (Koehn) Koidz. nom. nov. (Eishu zakura) which is a synonym of Prunus quelpaertensis Nakai (Tanna-yamazakura) whose accepted name is Prunus leveilleana.[10][16][17]
- In 1962, Takenaka ruled out the possibility of Korean origin of Yoshino Cherry by the morphological study.[18][13]
- In 2005, Yong-hwan Jung et al. conducted the phylogenetic analysis using sequences from both rbcL gene and trnL-trnF intergenic spacer of chloroplast DNA and concluded that King cherry and Yoshino cherry are clearly genetically distinguished from each other.[19][20][21]
- In 2007, Mark S. Roh et al. analyzed King cherry and Yoshino cherry with inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers and sequence analysis of two chloroplast DNA genes, rpl16 and trnL-trnF spacer and showed that king cherry can be considered indigenous and sufficiently distinct from Yoshino cherry to warrant recognition as a distinct entity.[3]
Putative parental species
- In 1963, Takenaka assumed that King cherry might be a hybrid between Prunus subhirtella var. pendula form ascendens (Edo higan) and Prunus quelpartensis Nakai (Tanna-yamazakura; perhaps a form of Prunus verecunda (Kasumizakura)) or some other cherry species.[13]
- In 2014, Myong-suk Cho et al. reported that the nuclear (ITS/ETS and G3pdh) and cpDNA data, along with several morphological characteristics, provide the first convincing evidence for the hybrid origin of King cherry. The maternal parent was determined to be Prunus spachiana form ascendens (Edo higan), while the paternal parent was unresolved from the taxonomically complex Prunus serrulata (Yamazakura) / Prunus sargentii (Oyamazakura) clade.[22]
Cultivation
King cherry is a wild species whose habitats are Hallasan, Jeju Island and Daedunsan, Haenam and is not cultivated yet. Mass propagation is still at an experimental stage. An artificial breeding by the tissue culturing of 40 cherry trees planted in 1996 bloomed in 2003 for the first time.[23]
Natural monument
King cherry tree habitats are designated to the Natural monument. There are three Natural monuments.
- Natural monument no. 156 – Jeju Sinrye-ri King Cherry habitat, designated in 1964.[24] 33°21′50″N 126°35′52″E / 33.363841°N 126.597866°E
- Natural monument no. 159 – Jeju Bonggae-dong King Cherry habitat, designated in 1964. There are two King cherry trees.[25] 33°26′34″N 126°37′41″E / 33.442807°N 126.627976°E
- Natural monument no. 173 - Haenam Daedunsan King cherry habitat, designated in 1966: There are two King cherry trees.[26] 34°29′30″N 126°36′53″E / 34.491537°N 126.614690°E

I visited the (Quelpart) island in 1933 and observed that the tree, which was growing wild, showed differences from P. yedoensis; the hairs on calyx lobes and on the lower side of leaves were less numerous, and the peduncles were shorter. I concluded that it could not be P. yedoensis. I assumed that it might be a hybrid between P. subhirtella var. pendula form ascendens (Edo-higan) and Prunus quelpaertensis (Tanna-yamazakura; perhaps a form of P. verecunda) or some other cherry species
