| Summary: | Tartary buckwheat, Fagopyrum tataricum, was not utilized as food in Japan about ten years ago. Recently its rutin content and other functional materials for human body have been attended in tartary buckwheat, and the demand of tartary buckwheat as food is increasing. Tartary buckwheat was not seemed to exist in Japan, but wild tartary buckwheat was autogenous till the 1970's in Hokkaido. The wild tartary buckwheat was called as Ishisoba, which means stone buckwheat, and should be removed in harvest of common buckwheat. We reported the competition between tartary buckwheat and common buckwheat for products of both species, and guessed the origin of Ishisoba by the literature. |
