This article aims to introduce a representative case of convergence among art, technology and science, and look into the factors that contributed to its success. The focus is specifically brought to the cooperation between the Plantin Press and local painters in Antwerp in the Netherlands during the 16th century. The Plantin Press scored huge successes through collaboration with Flemish artists such as Rubens and Borcht. This helped the artists to use their talents in a new medium or to secure a job that appreciates their values. The Plantin Press outdid its competitors in the market through applying new techniques on its works. Great botany books also came out as a result of such convergence. The backdrop to the Netherlands appearing as the center of botanical studies in the 17th century is the concerted efforts of the painters that created quality illustrations and the publishers that knew how to use them efficiently.

Algific talus slopes are local cold micro-environmental habitats where cool air escapes through vents and fissures of talus layer, and ice forms in summer. To access the phytogeographical significance and to develop the conservation strategy on vegetation of the algific talus, plant species composition on seven algific talus in South Korea was investigated. As a results, phytogeographically significant northern elements such as Cystopteris fragilis (L.) Bernh., Diplazium sibiricum (Turcz. ex Kunze) Sa.Kurata, Polypodium virginianum L., Vaccinium vitis-idaea L. and Hackelia deflexa (Wahlenb.) Opiz were distributed in these algific talus slopes (below $N37^{\circ}43^{\prime}$). In addition, subalpine species such as Woodsia subcordata Turcz, Rosa suavis willd., Clematis fusca var. coreana ($H.L{\acute{e}}v.$ & Vaniot) Nakai, Calamagrostis langsdorfii (Link) Trin. and Carex vaginata var. petersii (C.A.Mey.) Akiyama were also distributed as typical relictual species of these algific talus (less than alt. 400m). The algific talus slopes in Korean peninsular can be regarded as the insular refugia that northern plant species advanced southward during the latest glacial age have been isolated and adapted in some local microhabitats. Because the algific talus slopes as paleorefugia are very important in terms of phytogeography as well as meteorology ans geology, developments of strategies for in situ and ex situ conservation on these small isolated and threatened populations associated with the algific talus urgently needed.

This paper reports on the development of an automatic book classification system using the faced classification principles of CC(Colon Classification). To conduct this study, some 670 words in the botanical field were selected, analyzed in terms [P], [M], [E], [S], [T] employed in CC 7, and included in a database for classification. The principle of an automatic classification system is to create classification numbers automatically through automatic subject recognition and processing of key words in titles through the facet combination method of CC. Particularly, a classification database was designed along with a matrix-principle specifying the subject field for each word, which can allow automatic subject recognition possible.

This study was carried out to investigate the flora of Oeumsan Mountain (Hongcheon-gun and Hoengseong-gun, Gangwon-do) from March of 2016 to September of 2017. The vascular plants were summarized into 509 taxa, including 98 families, 301 genera, 436 species, 4 subspecies, 57 varieties and 12 forms. Among the 509 investigated taxa, 9 Korean endemic, 1 endangered plant, 8 rare plants and 57 floristic regional indicator plants were also included. The naturalized plants encompassed 35 taxa. The percentage of naturalized plants species and the urbanization index were estimated to be 6.9% and 10.9%, respectively.

This study was carried out to investigate flora of Golji stream watershed in Gangwon province. The vascular plants which were collected in 11 times (from May 2012 to Nov. 2013) were identified as 825 taxa in total, including 124 families, 420 genera, 730 species, 8 subspecies, 78 varieties, 6 forms and 3 hybrids. In the flora of this area, Korean endemic species were 34 taxa, red list of vascular plants according to IUCN valuation basis were 34 taxa and 165 taxa of specially designated floristic regional indicator plants by the Ministry of Environment. Among those species investigated in this survey, 101 taxa were identified as specific species bio-geographically as compared to flora of other terrestrial regions; 37 of calcicolous plants, 64 with distribution in the northern part of the Korean peninsula. 34 aquatic taxa and 69 naturalized plants were recorded in the investigated area.

A study of the vascular hydrophyte communities was undertaken in the wetlands of Imjado, Shinangun, from March to November, 2006. As a result, the vegetation was divided into 15 communities. Among them, emergent hydrophytes consisted of 9 communities, including Phragmites communis community, Typha angustata community, Paspalum disticum var. indutum community, Sparganium erectum community, Oenanthe javanica community, Echinochloa crusgalli var. crusgalli community, Juncus effusus var. decipiens community, Aneilema keisak community and Persicaria thunbergii community, floating hydrophytes 1 community Trapa japonica community, free-floating hydrophytes 2 communities including Lemna paucicostata community and Spirodela polyrhiza community, and submergent hydrophyte 2 community, including Myriophyllum verticillatum community and Potamogeton distinctus community. These results were considered that the wetland of Imjado was characterized by the typical structure of aquatic plant ecosystem.

In order to optimize the conditions of callus induction and plant regeneration in seed culture of Italian ryegrass, the effects of basic medium and carbon sources on seed culturability and genotypic difference of plant regenerability were investigated. MS medium was better than N6 and B5 medium in enhancing callus growth and plant regeneration. Sucrose was superior to maltose in plant regeneration as carbon source in the medium. The genotypic difference in plant regenerability was obvious among four cultivars of Italian ryegrass tested. 'Rio' and 'Jeanne' showed to have higher regenerability with the frequency of 38% and 56%, respectively.

Examined were the vegetative and reproductive characters such as external morphology, anatomy (leaf petiole, blade and stem), pollen and nutlet for the taxonomic revision of Elsholtzia in Korea. The inflorescence of all studied taxa of Elsholtzia in Korea is secund and 0.5-10 cm long. Leaves are ovate or nearly and $0.2-10{\times}0.2-6.0cm$. The shapes of inflorescence and leaves are very useful taxonomic characters. The stomata types are anomocytic and diacytic. The morphology of nutlet is ovoid and pitted in surface pattern of exocarp. All studied taxa are myxocarpy. The pollen grains are of medium size and subprolate in shape, and have typical bi-reticulate exine surface. Four species are recognized for Korean Elsholtzia by the identification key and descriptions in this study.

Fire blight, a plant disease caused by Erwinia amylovora, continues to cause considerable damage to fruit-bearing trees belonging to the Rosaceae family, such as apples and pears. In Korea, to hinder its rapid spread diseased apple and pear trees have been buried since its first occurrence. To determine the safety of this control method, the buried plant materials and adjacent soil have been investigated. In the process of investigating the microbiota of the buried soil, Bisifusarium allantoides, Botryotrichum domesticum, Microascus verrucosus, Paraphoma pye, Phaeosphaeria culmorum, Ramophialophora globispora, Sordaria tomentoalba, and Striaticonidium brachysporum were identified as unrecorded species in Korea. To report the above eight species as Korean unrecorded species, we report their morphological and molecular features in this study.
