Abstract	Seed transfer regulation in forest trees is to prevent the plantation of maladapted trees in non-local sites. Seed transfer from southern to northern Japan is prohibited in Japanese red pine (Pinus densiflora). To evaluate the current regulation of seed transfer, a reciprocal transplant trial was conducted in P. densiflora trees originating from two provenances in southern (S) and northern (N) Japan and planted in sites S and N near these provenances. We observed survival rate at 0–15 years old before a thinning and at 15–30 and 15–40 years old after the thinning and measured diameter, per-planted-area cross-sectional area, and shape of stems of 30-year-old trees. The survival rate before the thinning was lower in provenance S than in provenance N and in site S than in site N. The survival rates after the thinning were lower in non-home sites, in particular, provenance S in site N. The stem diameter was largest in provenance S in site S, smallest in the both provenances in site N, and intermediate in provenance N in site S. Thus, trees were fewer and larger in provenance S than in provenance N in their home sites. As a result, the per-planted-area stem cross-sectional area of 30-year-old trees was smallest in provenance S in site N, suggesting a disadvantage of northward transplantation. Proportions of trees with broken and/or crooked stems were higher in site N than in site S, suggesting that a northern environment is more stressful. These findings support the current regulation of seed transfer directions in Japanese P. densiflora.
