Five species of plants (Clerodendrum trichotomum Thunb., Angelica dahurica (Fisch. ex Hoffm.) Benth. & Hook. f. ex Franch. & Sav., Caryopteris incana (Thunb. ex Houtt.) Miq., Lonicera japonica Thunb., and Parasenecio auriculatus var. matsumurana Nakai) native to the clean area of Mt. Jiri were selected. The collection period was from May to September 2021, and the five species plants were collected in their native habitats with flowers in full bloom. The collected plants were extracted with 70% EtOH, and 17 kinds of polyphenol components were analyzed. Next, flowers, leaves, stems, and roots were separated from plants, extracted with 70% EtOH for each part and experiments were conducted on DPPH, ABTS, total polyphenols, and total flavonoids. The results are as follows. 1. It was found that there were a total of 8 kinds of polyphenols contained in 5 species of plants that are native to Mt. Jiri. Among the polyphenol components, chlorogenic acid was contained in 4 species of plants, and caffeic acid was contained in 2 species of plants. 2. As a result, the DPPH radical scavenging activity was the best in the stem of P. auriculata and the C. trichotomum was good regardless of the specific part. It was found that the activity-scavenging activity was good in the flowers of A. dahurica and the leaves of L. japonica. 3. The highest ABTS radical scavenging activity was C. trichotomum Thunb., whose EC₅₀ value was 38.73~66.28ppm. Next, the leaves and stems of L. japonica Thunb., A. dahurica and P. auriculata, and the leaves and stems of C. incana appeared in that order. 4. The highest total polyphenol content was 154.83mg GAE/g in the leaves of C. trichotomum, followed by about 130mg GAE/g in the flowers of C. trichotomum and P. auriculata. The lowest was 26.27mg GAE/g in the stems of A. dahurica.

The essential oil was extracted from the roots of Angelica dahurica Bentham et Hooker f. by steam distillation and its composition was analyzed by GC-MS. The antifungal activities were evaluated by micro-dilution method against five Aspergillus and three Trichophyton species. The most abundant component was ${\alpha}$-pinene (17.21%) among 40 compounds identified in this oil. The essential oil fraction of A. dahurica and ${\alpha}$-pinene exhibited marked inhibiting activities against the tested Aspergillus and Trichophyton species with MICs (minimum inhibitory concentrations) between 0.12 mg/ml and 8 mg/ml.

This study was to estabilish the composition and vegetation of vascular plants on natural mashes in Wondae-ri(710m: $37^{\circ}$ 58' 30" N, $128^{\circ}$ 12' 15" E), This work was conducted from April to October, 1999. Vascular plants were composed of 71 families, 175 genera, 228 species, 1 subspecies, 33 varieties and 3 formae, totaling 265 taxa. Among the investigated vascular plants, 19 families, 24 genera, 31 species, 5 varieties, 1 formae, totaling 37 taxa (13.9%) were hydrophytes and hygrophytes. The forest vegetation was classified into 1 community and 2 subcommunities ; A. Phragmites japonica community A-1. Salix gracilistyla-Impatiens noli-tangere subcommunity A-2. Spiraea prunifolia var. simpliciflora-Artemisia capillaris subcommunity.

This research was carried out for revealing the co-relationships between insect-pollinators and the plant species of Labiatae and Umbelliferae, insects visiting in flower and the flowers in Korea, were studied from April 2010 to August 2012. The sum of flower visiting degrees in Labiatae are shown 21 in Hymenoptera, 16 in Lepidoptera, and the lowest 1 in Diptera and Coleoptera, respectively. The sum of flower visiting degrees in Umbelliferae are shown 27 in Diptera, 24 in Hymenoptera, 21 in Coleoptera, and 13 in Lepidoptera, respectively. 17 pollinator species visited the flower of Angelica gigas, next 15 pollinator species did the flower of Agastache rugosa, 13 pollinator species did the flower of Prunella vulgaris var. lilacina. 13 pollinator species foraged on the flower of Peucedanum terebinthaceum. and then 11 pollinator species on the flower of Angelica dahurica. Only 1 pollinator species visited the flower of Clinopodium chinense var. grandiflora and Isodon excisus. Pollinators of Coleoptera and Diptera visit more frequently to the flowers of Umbelliferae than those of Labiatae. Pollinators of Lepidoptera and Diptera visit more frequently white flower than purple one. This study found out that mutualistic relations between plants and insect pollinators in Korea.

In this study, we analyzed and quantified the amounts of bioactive phenolic constituents, xanthotoxin (1), oxypeucedanin (2), and imperatorin (3) in each part of the root of Angelica dahurica by HPLC, which validated by ICH guide lines comparing the linearity, intra day precision, inter-day precision. As a result, the amount of imperatorin 2.96% in the rootlet was two fold higher than that of the main root 1.32%. On the other hand, the amounts of xanthotoxin and oxypeucedanin in the rootlet showed similar to those of main root. In addition, the cortex of root is more plentiful of three consitituents (0.66%, 0.53%, and 1.85%) than those of xylem (0.29%, 0.05%, and 0.07%). These results show that the rootlet and cortex contain a large amount of bioactive phenolic constituent including xanthotoxin, oxypeucedanin, and imperatorin than other parts of the root.

Karyotypes were established in seven Angelica species cultivated in Korea. The somatic chromosome numbers were 2n = 2x = 22 with the basic number of x = 11 in all Angelica plants examined. Their metaphase chromosomes ranged from 3.56 ${\mu}M$. to 8.91 x. in length. Distinctive Karyotypes were found in two species, A. tenuissima with all metacentries, K(2n) = 2x = 22m, and A. genuflexa with all subtelocentrics, K(2n) = 2x = 22st. Karyotype formulas of A. gigas, A. acutiloha, A. sinensis, A. decursiva and A. dahurica were K(2n) = 2x = 20m + 2sm, K(2n) = 2x = 12m + 10sm, K(2n) = 2x = 16m + 6sm, K(2n) = 2x = 18m + 4sm and K(2n) = 2x = 10m + 10sm + 2st, respectively. Cytological data showed that chromosomal polymorphisms within species were observed in Angelica plants compare to other regions.

The purposes of this work were to study germination conditions on $\gamma$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) contents and to develop a simple and effective technique for the production of germinated brown rice with an enhanced GABA levels. The samples were subjected to heat treatments at 40 and $45^{\circ}C$ before the soaking step. Moreover, four medicinal plant extracts including Schizandra chinensis, Dimocarpus longan Lour, Angelica dahurica, and Gastrodia elata Blume were used as soaking and germinating media. GABA levels were enhanced in the germinated brown rice compared to the non-germinated brown rice and the highest GABA contents were observed in heat treatment at $35^{\circ}C$. The brown rice soaked in Gastrodia elata Blume extract showed the highest GABA contents compared to the control sample. These results demonstrate that the GABA levels during germination could be significantly enhanced by the heat treatment and the treatment of medicinal plant extracts in the soaking step.
