This study was conducted to examine the dry matter production and leaf photosynthesis under different fertilizer application in Yacon(Polymnia sonchifolia)plants. Under field conditions, dry matter production of stable mature application plot(S-1) was much larger than non-treated control plot(CTL), but bulb dry weight of 10kg nitrogen application plot per 10a (N-10) was not differentiated from CTL. The maximum photosynthetic rates increased in Yacon plants grown at S-1 while in the rates of CTL reduced under glasshouse in the same treated pot condition. The optimum temperature for the highly photosynthetic rates is about $34{\pm}3^{\circ}C$, and the rates did decrease by stomatal resistance below 28℃. The estimated light saturation point was $1200{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}s^1$. The results of this study indicate that soil conditions were highly related to dry matter production and leaf photosynthesis rate in Yacon plants.

To investigate the influence of shading materials with growing stages in Panax Ginseng C. A. Meyer, the diurnal change of photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, transpiration and its any correlation were measured. The net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance of ginseng were higher in the morning than in the broad day. The net photosynthetic rate was increased as the PAR (Photosynthetically Action Radiation) was increased and it was reached the maximum at the $200\;{\mu}mol/m^2/s$ of PAR in overall leaves. Transpiration rate was increased in the afternoon compared to in the morning. The transpiration rate was higher in rain shelter shading plate than in polyethylene net. A linear equation was obtained between net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance in the morning. SPAD was higher in rain shelter shading plate than in polyethylene net through all growth stages. It may result from the decrease of growth progress. From investigating photosynthetic characteristics, we concluded that shading plate of rain shelter was more an efficient material to ginseng growth.

벌개미취(Aster koraiensis Nakai)는 국화과에 속하는 우리나라 자생종으로 어린잎은 식용하고, 항비만 및 고지혈증 예방 등의 연구 결과가 보고되어 이용 가치가 높다고 알려져 있다. 또한 주로 조경소재로 이용되고 있으며, 생태복원을 위한 소재식물로 벌개미취를 이용하려는 시도가 이루어지고 있다. DMZ 남방한계선 철책 주변에는 군의 경계작전을 위해 반복적으로 식생을 제거한 지역(불모지)이 형성되어 있어 이를 복원할 필요가 있다. 생태복원에 있어 가장 기본적인 종 선정 방법은 자생종 또는 인접 지역종을 이용하는 것이다. 벌개미취는 DMZ 일원에 자생할 뿐만 아니라, 건조한 환경은 물론 습윤한 지역에서도 생육한다. 본 연구에서는 토성에 따른 벌개미취의 발아 특성과 광조건에 따른 광합성 반응을 조사하여 DMZ 불모지와 유사한 환경에서의 생육이 건전한지 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 벌개미취의 기내발아 검정(15℃, 12/12h)과 토성(마사토, 상토, 혼합토)에 따른 종자 발아율을 비교하였고, 차광(0, 50, 75 및 95%)처리에 따른 엽면적당 건중량, 엽록소 함량, 광-광합성 반응을 조사하였다. 벌개미취의 발아율은 기내(79%), 마사토(74%), 상토(82%) 그리고 혼합토(77%)로 나타나 각 처리구간 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 벌개미취의 엽면적당 건중량은 차광수준이 높을수록 감소하였고, 엽록소 a와 b 함량은 차광수준이 높을수록 감소하였으나 a/b는 통계적으로 차이가 없었다. 광-광합성 반응을 통해 산출한 벌개미취의 광포화점과 광합성 최대속도는 차광수준이 높을수록 감소하는 경향이 나타났고, 순양자수율은 증가하는 경향이 나타났다. 벌개미취는 전천광보다 낮은 광도에서 생장 시 광합성 능력이 감소하는 것으로 보이며, 광이 제한되지 않는 불모지 환경에서 생육이 유리할 것으로 생각한다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of $CO_2$ concentration(310 or 950$\mu$ mol.mol$^{-1}$ ) and air current speed(0.3, 0.5, 0.7 or 0.9m.s$^{-1}$ ) on the growth and development of eggp1ant Plug seedlings (Solanum melongena L.) under artificial 1ighting. For the treatment of $CO_2$ enrichment, stem length and diameter, the ratio of stem length to stem diameter, plant height, leaf area, net photosynthetic rate, top dried weight were significantly different at 1% level. Stem length of plug seedlings decreased at the condition under enriched $CO_2$ and high air current speed above plug stand. Stem diameter of plug seedlings increased and plant height decreased with the increasing $CO_2$ concentration. Plug seedlings had maximum net photosynthetic rate at the air current speed of 0.7m.s$^{-1}$ . Net photosynthetic rate at $CO_2$ concentration of 950$\mu$mol.mol$^{-1}$ increased by 46% than those at 310$\mu$mol.mol$^{-1}$ . Thus $CO_2$ enrichment would be effective for the production of plug seedlings with high quality.

Experiments were conducted to investigate optimal ionic salt strength in nutrient solution for small plug seedlings of ‘Nokgwang’ and ‘Kwari’ green pepper. Plant height increased with increasing ionic salt strength. total leaf area was 72％ greater in ‘Nokgwang’ and 18% greater in ‘Kwari’with 2.0 ionic salt strength than that with 1.0 strength. Dry weight per plant tended to increase at higher ionic salt strengths in ‘Kwari’, but to decrease in ‘Nokgwang’ Chlorophyll content increased with increasing ionic salt strength in both cultivars. Photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, and transpiration rate were higher for plants fertilized with 1.5 strength than other strengths in both cultivars. Photosynthetic rate peaked at 8.74 $\mu$mol$.$m$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ in ‘Nokgwang’ and 5.70 $\mu$mol$.$m$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ in‘Kwari’with 1.5 ionic salt strength.

This study was carried out to determine leaf photosynthetic capacity and growth characteristics of Kalopanax picturs Nakai seedlings under the different light condition. The seedlings grown under low light condition showed larger leaf area and petiole, and higher relative growth rate than those grown under high light condition. Chlorophyll contents as chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and chlorophyll a + b were high in the seedlings grown under highlight condition compared to those grown in low light conditions. The mean absorption value of shade leaf within photosynthetically active radiation (400-700 nm) was slightly higher than that of sun leaf, Leaf photosynthetic capacity of seedling was variable under the different light conditions. Seedling grown under high light condition had the higher photosynthetic capacity. Leaf photosynthetic rates under forestry and nursery were 700 and $300\;{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, respectively. However, leaf photosynthetic rates under high and low light conditions were 500 and $300\;{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, respectively.

We investigated changes in photosynthetic characteristics of P. davidiana in order to understand damage patterns to photosynthetic apparatus under drought stress. Root sprout saplings of P. davildiana were treated with $0\%,\;2\%,\;5\%,\;and\;10\%$ of 300ml polyethylene glycol (PEG) once a weer far one month. After one month, we measured photosynthetic parameters and analyzed the photochemical and $CO_2$ fixation systems. Photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, and respiration rate in the leaves of P. davildiana decreased according to increasing stress strength. In the photochemical system, quantum yield of PSII was reduced by the increment of PEG concentration, The decrease of apparent quantum yield was related to reduction of electron transport. Respiration rate decreased with an increase in PEG concentration, whereas photorespiration rate in the $CO_2$ fixation system increased. In conclusion, photosynthesis of P. davidiana responded sensitively under drought stress, and the sensitivity depended upon the strength of water stress. P. davidiana exhibited an increase of water use efficiency under water stress.

The present study was to examine the effects of light, temperature, and water stress on the photosynthesis and respiration rates and its seasonal changes in 3-Year-old Fraxinus rhynchophylla and Fraxinus mandshurica seedlings raised in pot in nursery. The results obtained are as follows: 1. The estimated light compensation points at which net photosynthesis approached zero were 35 and $28{\mu}Em^{-2}\;s^{-1}$ for F. rhyrachophylla and F. mandsdzurica leaves, respectively, The light saturation points occurred at $700{\mu}Em^{-2}\;s^{-1}$ in these species. 2. The maximum rates of net photosynthesis of leaves occurred at about $25^{\circ}C$ in F. rhynchophylla and at $20^{\circ}C$ in F. mandshurica. 3. The decrease in net photosynthetic rates of leaves began at -13 bars in F. rhynchophylla and -10 bars in F. mandshurica, and then its rates approached approximately zero at -23 bars in F. mandshurica and -29 bars in F. rhynchophylla. 4. The dark respiration rates of leaves were similar from $10^{\circ}C$ to $40^{\circ}C$ between these species, Also these increased from -10 bars to -28 bars, and then decreased remarkably in these species. 5. The net photosynthetic rates of leaves of F. mandshurica were higher than those of F. rhynchoplaylla until June, and after that lower than F. rhynchophylla. The dark respiration rates of leaves of F. rhynchophylla were higher than those of F. mandshurica from June to August, and After that similar between these species. 6. The respiration rates of stem and root were highest in April during the growing season. These values of F. rhynchophylla were slightly higher than those of F. mandshurica throughout the growing season.

Salicylic acid (SA), a phenolic compound, plays a pivotal role in regulating a wide range of physiological and metabolic processes in plants such as antioxidant cellular defense, photosynthesis, and biotic and abiotic stress responses during the growth and development. We examined the effect of exogenous SA application (100 mg·L^-1) on the growth, yield, photosynthetic characteristics, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant enzyme activity of chili pepper plants under high temperature and drought stress conditions. SA treatment induced increases of net photosynthetic rate (Pn), stomatal conductance (Gs) and transpiration rate (Tr) under the stress condition with the highest level after the third treatment. The contents of malondialdehyde and H₂O₂ were significantly lower in the third treatment of SA compared to the control. The activity of ascorbate peroxidase, catalase, peroxidase and superoxide dismutase, increased in treated plants by up to 247, 318, 55 and 54%, respectively compared to the nontreated control. There was no significant difference in the growth characteristics between SA-treated and nontreated plants, while the SA treatment increased marketable yield (kg/10a) by about 15% compared to the nontreated control. Taken together, these results suggest that foliar application of SA alleviates physiological damages caused by the combination of drought and heat stress, and enhances the photosynthetic capacity and antioxidant enzyme activities, thereby improving tolerance to a combination of water deficit and heat stress in chili pepper plants.
