In February of 2002, the gray mold disease occurred severely on primular(primular spp.) grown in a flower nursery farm in Jinju, Korea. At first, the infected leaves were discolored to gray or dark from the tip and gradually expanded to die. The fungus attacked not only leaves but petals, calyx flower stalk and stems. Conidia of the fungus in mass were hyaline or gray, 1-celled, mostly ellipsoid or ovoid and sized 6.8~16.9$\times$4.6~12.4 $\mu$m. Conidiophores were wide of 15.9~31.6$\mu$m in size. The sclerotia were readily formed potato-dextrose agar and optimum temperature far sclerotial formation was 2$0^{\circ}C$. Pathogenecity of the causal organism was and preyed according to Koch\`s postulate. The causal organism was identified as Botrytis cinerea based on mycological characteristics. This is the first report on gray mold of primula caused by Botrytis cinerea in Korea.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of pretreatments and holding solutions on quality and vase life of cut 'Saphir' rose (Rosa hybrida L.). Pulsing with aluminum sulfate or NaOCl prolonged vase life held in HQS+sucrose+ethionine. Solution absorption held in distilled water were more increased than held in HQS+sucrose+ethionine. Holding solution with 8-hydroxyquinoline sulfate (HQS)+sucrose+ethionine increased fresh weight compared with distilled water except pulsing with STS+sucrose. Pulsing with aluminium sulfate delayed bent-neck held in HQS+sucrose+ethionine. Flower diameter and dry weight of petal held in HQS+sucrose+ethionine were more increased than held in distilled water except pulsing with STS+sucrose. There were no significance in Hunter color value 'L' and value 'a', but value 'b' was decreased held in distilled water.

A new rose cultivar was bred by crossing the red-yellow standard cultivar 'Konfetti' and pink standard cultivar 'Laser' at the Chungcheongbuk-do Agriculture Research and Extension Services. The cross was completed in 2003, after varietal characteristics was tested for 3 years from 2005 to 2007, 'Suryeo' was finally selected in 2007 and registered on the grant of plant variety rights in 2009. The cultivar was developed for a standard-type cut flower with white-pink petals. 'Suryeo' produced 149 stems/$m^2$ in a year and had 64 petals per flower. This new cultivar needed 48 days to flower and showed 12 days vase life. The length of cut stem was about 78 cm, and the fresh weight of stem was 50 g. This cultivar showed high resistance against powdery mildew.

우리나라에서 오랫동안 적색 및 황색색소원으로 널리 사용하여 왔던 홍화(Carthamus tinctorius)로부터 전통적인 추출방법을 응용한 새로운 방법을 사용하여 적색소를 효과적으로 분리정제하였다. 홍화꽃잎을 물 및 메탄올로 처리하여 황색소를 제거한 다음 건조파쇄하여 0.5 M $Na_2CO_3$로 홍색소를 추출하고 0.5 M citrate 수용액으로 침전시킨 후 cellulose 흡착, Sephadex LH-20 관크로마토그라피로 분리정제하였다. 분리정제된 적색소는 $300^{\circ}C$에서 분해되었고 silica gel TLC 상에서 BAW(n-BuOH : HOAc : $H_2O$=4 : 1 : 5)로 전개하였을 때 $R_f$값이 0.56이었다. 에탄올 용액에 녹인 적색소의 UV/Vis 흡수스펙트럼은 519, 372, 311, 244 nm에서 최대 흡수피크를 나타내었고, IR 스펙트럼은 특히 $3400\;cm^1$ 넓은 영역에서 hydroxyl기에 의한 강한 흡수띠를 보여주었다. $^{1}H$ 및 $^{13}C$ NMR data로 부터 enolized ${\beta}-triketone$, p-hydroxycinnamoyl, methine 및 glucosyl moieties를 확인하였고 그 값을 제시하였다. 이상의 data를 문헌과 비교한 결과 분리한 홍화적색소의 화학구조는 $6-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl-2-[[3-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl-2,3,4-trihydroxy-5-[3#-(4@-hydroxyphenyl)-1#-oxo-2#-propenyl]-6-oxo-1,4-cyclohexadien-1-yl]methylene]-5,6-dihydroxy-4-[3#-(4@-hydroxyphenyl)-1#-oxo-2#-propenyl]-4-cyclohexene-1,3-dione$인 carthamin으로 확인하였다.

The morphology of plants and scanning electro-microscopical features of fruits were examined to evaluate the taxonomic entities of Korean Adonis L. in sensu lato (Ranunculaceae). The species of Korean Adonis were readily diagnosed by the branching pattern of stem, the number of flowers, the bifurcation of leaf main axis, the number of tepals, the flowering periods in relation to leaf sprouting, and the number of stomata and the texture of fruit surface. This study demonstrates that there are three species, A. amurensis, A. pseudoamurensis, and A. multiflora., found in Korea. However, A. ramosa, which has been often claimed to be distributed in Korea, is not present in Korea.

The pollination system of Bupleurum latissimum Nakai (Apiaceae) was investigated in the natural population of Korea. The various insects of 19 species, 11 families, 5 orders visited the flowers of B. latissimum. Episyrphus balteatus and Lasioglossum occidens were considered as the most effective pollen vector which have associated specially with B. latissimum. The visitation frequency peaked at 10 AM - 13 PM and no visitor was recognized during night time. The flowers of B. latissimum last during only three days and they are protandry. It is also confirmed that the flower of B. latissimum is self-compatible and cross-pollination by vectors is critical for successful seed setting.

Capparis pubifolia B. S. Sun is reported here as a new addition to the flora of Vietnam. It is morphologically allied to C. sikkimensis Kurz but differs due to the gray-yellow color of the hair of the twigs, having more secondary veins on the leaf, trichomes on both surfaces of the petal, and a globose shape of the fruit. Thus far, it was only reported in the Guangxi and Yunnan areas of China. A description, a line drawing and color photographs are provided for species identification. Furthermore, a comparison of the diagnostic characters with those of related species is made.

During the extensive forays for discovering the biodiversity of phytopathogenic fungi in Korea, powdery mildew-affected purple coneflowers (Echinacea purpurea) were frequently found. Since 2004, nine samples have been deposited in the Korea University Herbarium. The initial symptoms include white, evanescent mycelia and irregular patches on mature leaves. Mild symptoms in the form of discolored lesions are also noticed on the stem and petal of the affected plants. Based on the morphological characteristics of the anamorph and the phylogenetic analysis of the internal transcribed spacers (ITS) and large subunit (LSU) rDNA sequences, the causal fungus was identified as Podosphaera xanthii. This is the first report that identifies the causal agent of powdery mildew disease affecting purple coneflower in Korea.

Type and three-dimensional morphology of carbides precipitated in the X(X= 1.70, 1.92, 2.21, 2.50, 2.86)%C-5%Cr-5%V-5%Mo-5%W-5%Co multi-component white cast iron were investigated using an optical microscope and SEM. The types of carbides precipitated were MC, M$_2$C and M$_{7}$C$_{3}$. Morphology of the MC carbide took three forms, that it petal-like, nodular and coral-like. MC carbide seemed to change its morphology from petal-like through nodular, and finally to coral-like with an increase in carbon content. M7C carbide was classified into lamellar and plate-like type. The lamellar M$_2$C arbide precipitated in the iron with low molybdenum and tungsten contents, and higher contents of both elements in the iron were needed to form the plate-like M$_2$C carbide. The morphology of M$_{7}$C$_{3}$ was rod-like similar to that observed in high chromium white cast iron. However, cobalt does not affect the type and morphology of precipitated carbides.des.

Fractional solvent extraction by organic solvents such as hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate, and butanol was carried out using 70% ethanol extract of apple flower leaves. Biological activities including antioxidant, whitening, antimicrobial and anti-wrinkle activities were investigated and bio-active materials of the extracts were identified using GC/MSD. Among the tested solvent fractions, ethylacetate fraction showed the highest total polyphenol content (1218.94 ${\mu}g/mL$), and flavonoid (140 ${\mu}g/mL$). The DPPH radical scavenging activities was over 80% at a dry matterbased concentration of 200 ${\mu}g/{\mu}L$ and SOD-like activity was over 90% at 50 ${\mu}g/mL$ concentration in ethylacetate fraction that was slightly lower than of ascorbic aicd. Tyrosinase inhibition activity related to skin-whitening was over 60% by ethylacetate fraction of 100 ${\mu}g/mL$. As an anti-aging effect, elastase inhibitory activity was about 45% in ethylacetate fraction. Also, it showed a significantly antimicrobial activity against P. acenes. From GC/MSD analysis, a characteristic peak of high content in ethylacetate fraction was identified as kaempferol, which has been reported as a bioactive compound.
