Abstract
With the soil samples collected from 33 locations in Kwangju area, the physiochemical properties of soil and soil microorganisms have been studied and the results of'the analysis were as follows ;1 . Tlle temperatilre, pH, moisture and organic matter of sampling s'tes were measured in the range of 21.O~28.O$^{\circ}C$, 4.0"6.6, 2.1"24.0% and 2.8~22.0% respectively.and that showed wide range distribution in moisture and organio mattrr particulary.and averase was 24.$^{\circ}C$ of temperature, 4.9 of pH, 11.9% of moisture and 8.9% of'organic matter.2. The general bacterial number, cellulolytic bacterial number, general fungal number and cellulolytic fungal number were measured in tile range of 23$\times$10$^{[-995]}$ _1548x10$^{[-995]}$ , 8.0$\times$10$^{[-995]}$ ~412.0$\times$10$^{[-995]}$ , 0.3$\times$10$^{[-994]}$ ~56.4$\times$10$^{[-994]}$ and 0.Ix10$^{[-994]}$ ~17.2x10$^{[-994]}$ , respectivelyand average was 378.4$\times$10$^{[-995]}$ of general bacteria, 102.5$\times$10$^{[-995]}$ of cellulolytic bacteria.13.OX10$^{[-994]}$ of general fungi and 4.3$\times$10$^{[-994]}$ of cellulolytic fungi.tic fungi.
