Bang-Poong and related species are an important herbal medicine. However, it is difficult to determine the commercial dry material through anatomical and chemotaxonomical characteristics. Here, we used a PCR-based technique for an accurate discrimination of Bang-Poong and related species. With the RAPD primers, 215 RAPDSs(random amplified polymorphic DNAs) were obtained, and 98% of them showed polymorphic patterns. RAPDs from the four primers were appropriate for the discrimination of S. divaricata $(T_{URCZ{\cdot}})\;S_{CHISKIN}$, those from the six primers for P. japonicum $T_{HUNBERG}$, those from the four primers for P. terebinthaceum $F_{ISHER}$, and those from the six primers for G. littoralis Fr. $S_{CHMIDT}$. The specific bands from the primer 425 were obtained and used to develop SCAR (sequence characterized amplified region) markers, based on the sequence information of the RAPD markers. The SCAR primers generated a 215 bp fragment specific to Peucedanum terebinthaceum $F_{ISHER}$, and a 177 bp and a 300 bp fragment specific to G. littoralis Fr. $S_{CHMIDT}$. As a result, the three SCAR markers were able to discriminate from two Bang-Poong related species.

The experiment was carried out to clarify the effects of air temperature, light exposure and UV light on the growth and anthocyanin syntheses of Glehnia littoralis Fr. Schm. The major pigment of purfied aglycone of Glehnia littoralis Fr. Schm. was identified as cyanidin by TLC and HPLC analysis. The anthocyanin Syntheses was promoted at low temperature and in the treatment of light exposure (12hrs a day) for 4-6 days after shading. The plants grown under UV-cut film had less anthocyanin content those tose under UV-transmission film.

Factors affecting spatial distribution of halophytes were analyzed in June 2012 at the Goraebul coastal dunes. In the Goraebul sand dune, distribution of halophytes was divided into three groups. The first group belonging to Elymus mollis, Carex kobomugi, Calystegia soldanella, Ixeris repens and Glehnia littoralis was distributed in the ridge of primary sand dune and dune slack. The second group belonging to Lathyrus japonicus and Zoysia macrostachya was distributed in the dune slack. The third group belonging to Pinus thunbergii, Vitex rotundifolia and Linaria japonicus was distributed in the pine forest of the secondary sand dune. E. mollis, C. kobomugi, C. soldanella, I. repens and G. littoralis was distributed in relatively unstable habitat of sand dunes due to the large amount of sand movement. V. rotundifolia was distributed in a relatively stable habitat. Factors that have the greatest influence on distribution of halophytes in the Goraebul sand dunes are distance from the seashore, topography, and the pine forest. The Goraebul sand dune is a relatively well-preserved area with minimal human intervention. Therefore, different distribution of physico-chemical factors by natural processes is essential to spatial distribution of halophytes than other sand dunes in Korea. Significant natural processes in the Goraebul sand dunes were advance and retreat of coastlines from waves, erosion and sedimentation of sand due to wind and waves, and dispersal of seawater.

This study was carried out to investigate the distribution and habitat feature of Glehnia littoralis as a part of establishment of conservation plan for important natural agro-plant resources in South Korea. Habitat of Glehnia littoralis was generally found 28.2 m from high tide water line and 2.7 m above sea level at sand dunes near three seashore areas. Density and coverage of Glehnia littoralis were higher in east seashore among three seashore areas. The number of plant species growing with Glehnia littoralis in natural habitat was found 35 species. Among 35 species Ixeris repens Carex pumila, Carex kobomugi, Elymus mollis, Ischaemum anthephoroides, Imperata cylindrica var. koenigii were shown higher density and coverage. Average yearly precipitation and temperature of habitat for Glehnia littoralis were 1250.3 mm and $12.5^{\circ}C$, respectively. Among three seashores, the precipitation and temperature of south seashore were much more and higher than those of other two seashores. Soil characteristics of habitat for Glehnia littoralis were that average pH was 7.9 and organic matter was 0.23%. Content $P_2O_5$ and Ca were relatively higher, but the level K and Na were very low.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the growth and functional differences between C. rotundus and G. littoralis according to different electrical conductivity (EC) conditions in reclaimed soil conditions. C. rotundus and G. littoralis seeds were sown in a tray and managed for seedlings stage for eight weeks. They were transplanted in the pots containing reclaimed soils sampled in the Saemangum region. The plants were grown in the reclaimed land soil for 12 weeks under the control, 1, 2, 4, and $8dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ conditions and in horticultural soils with EC $1.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. Plant height, leaf length and width of C. rotundus were the highest in EC $1dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. Leaf, flower and tuber numbers of C. rotundus were the highest in EC $2dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ and the lowest in EC $8dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$, and SPAD was the highest in EC 2 and $4dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ and the lowest in EC $8dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. The fresh weights of shoot and root of C. rotundus grown under EC $2dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ increased and then decreased as the concentration increased. When compared plant growth between reclaimed soil and horticulture soil with EC $1dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$, the fresh weights of shoot and root, SPAD, leaf number, flower number, and tuber number were higher in horticultural soils. Although G. littoralis grown under EC $8dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ was the lowest in all growth parameters, there were no significant differences among other EC treatments. C. rotundus had the highest p-coumaric acid content in EC $1dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. And the catechin content in shoot of G. littoralis was the highest in the control, and root of Glehnia littoralis had the highest benzoic acid contents in EC $1dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. If the soil EC is well managed within $4.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$, two plants would be cultivated in reclaimed land.

The cultivation boundary areas and biological activator efficacies of Vitex rotundifolia, Tetragonia tetragonoides and Glehnia littoralis were investigated. Investigation of coastal areas revealed the East and West cultivation boundary areas of Vitex rotundifolia and Gelhnia littoralis to be the Taean Peninsula, Taean-gun and Gangwon-do, Donghae-City. The East and West coastal cultivation boundary areas of Tetragonia tetrragonoides are Jeollanam-do and Kyeongsangbuk-do, Ulleung-gun. The natural habitat is less than 200 m from the coastal area. Most of the Vitex rotundifolia, Tetragonia tetragonoides and Glehnia littoralis grow naturally in a region of mixed sand, clay and loam, in direct sunlight. No dominant vegetation was located. To analyze anti-inflammatory efficacy, RAW 264.7 cells were used. Vitex rotundifolia, Tetragonia tetragonoides and Glehnia littoralis inhibited inflammation by 37%, 12% and 10% in $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, respectively. However, the anti-inflammatory efficacy of Glehnia littoralis was invalid. Analysis of anti-cancer activity was accomplished using HL-60 cells. Glehnia littoralis revealed 60% and 72% inhibition activity in $100{\mu}g/m{\ell},\;and\;200{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ respectively. No cytotoxicity inhibition activity was investigated in Vitex rotundifolia and Tetragonia tetragonoides.

This study was carried out to investigate and evaluate the vegetations in the coastal dunes in the vicinity of swimming beaches on the East Sea, South Korea, and the vegetations that were investigated are as follows: Carex pumila community, Cynodon dactylon community, Zoysia macrostachya community, Rosa rugosa community, Vitex rotundifolia community and Carex kobomugi typical community. Some of these vegetations, such as Carex kobomugi, Calystegia soldanella, Ixeris repens, Elymus mollis, Lathyrus japonica, and Glehnia littoralis were found to be differential species which belongs to Caricion kobomugi of Glehnietea littoralis. It was also discovered that Vitex rotundifolia community was the most heterogeneous among vegetation communities of the coastal dunes surrounding swimming beaches, and Zoysia macrostachya community was most closely linked to the typical coastal dune vegetation community. Finally, Rosa rugosa community and Vitex rotundifolia community seemed to have formed near the hinterland of coastal dunes and swimming beaches respectively because of certain unnatural disturbances such as construction of buildings and facilities or natural disasters.
