In extremely metal-poor stars ([Fe H]< 2 5), hydrogen is mixed into the convection driven by helium flash and induces neutron-capture nucleosynthesis with the reactions, 12C(p γ)13N(e+ν)13C(α n)16O, as the neutron source. We investigate the progress of this nucleosynthesis with use of nuclear network for a wide range of model parameters such as the amount of mixed hydrogen and the strength of helium flash. We reveal the characteristic abundance pattern from the light elements through the s-process elements, produced by alpha- and neutron-capture reactions under the extremely metal-poor condition. On the basis, we explore the possible modifications of surface abundances in the metal-free, Population III stars and discuss their relevance to the two most iron-deficient stars, HE0107-5240 and HE1327-2326, known to date.
