Butterhead lettuce was grown hydroponically in a plant factory during summer season. To decrease the occurrence of tipburn and increase productivity, optimum cultivars, substrates, gully slope and height, and the amount of irrigation were evaluated in this experiment. Cultivars ‘Rex’ and ‘Flandria’ showed higher productivity with less tipburn as compared to the others in spite of lower growth rates and appeared to be suitable cultivars during summer season. Cocopeat showed high productivity due to superior physio-chemical characteristics. Appropriate gully slope which makes nutrient solution easy to flow was shown to be 1 to 2%. The amount of irrigation was appropriate at 2$\ell$/gully. Higher growth of the butterhead lettuce observed when the bed was at a lower position. Low bed was thought to be good for lettuce growth with proper humidity and average temperatures.

A new disease of arrowhead (Sagittaria trifolia L.)caused by Plectosporium tabacinum was observed at Yusung area in Korea. Infection occurred on the petioles, leaves, and seeds of young and old arrowhead plants. Small and brown spots developed on the infected areas initially, which later coalesced to form large dead areas resulting in the complete blight of the host plant. Inoculation of arrowhead seedlings by conidial suspension induced typical disease symptoms found in naturally infected plants. The new name for the disease 'arrowhead blight' is suggested. The pathogenic fungus was identified as Plectosporium tabacinum and its morphological and cultural characteristics are described.

Eleven fungi were isolated from the cankered stems, branchs and twigs of chestmut trees collected from Chuncheon, Gapyung, Wonseong, Inje and Kanghwa during 1985-1986. Among them, Botryosphaeria dothide (Moug. ex Fries) Ces. et. de Notaris, Cryptodiaporthe castanea (Tulasne) Wehmeyer, Endothia singularis Sheaet Stevens, E. parasitica (Murrill) P. J. et H. W. Anderson and Pseudovasella modonia (Tulasne) Kobayas were identified as perithecial stage. Dathiorella castaneae Camara et Vasconcelos, Fusicoccum castaneun Saccardo, Catinula japanica st. nov., Endothiella singularis (H. et. P. Syd.) Shear et Stev. nom. seminud, E. parasitica And., nom. seminud., and Coryneum castaneae (Sacc.) comb. novo were identified as conidial stage Botryosphaeria dothidea causing canker or diebark but and Endothia parasitica causing Endothia canker were already reported in Korea. The other fungi are first reported in Korea.

Twenty five compounds isopropylmethylphenyl benzenesulfonate derivatives of thymol (1), 4-isopropyl-3-methylphenol (2), 5-isopropyl-3-methylphenol (3), 4-isopropylphenol (4), and 2-isopropylphenol (5) derivatives were synthesized. These compounds were analyzed for their structural confirmation with IR, GC/MS, and $^1H$-NMR. Synthetic compounds were tested against phytopathogenic fungi activities such as Pyrcularia grisea, Rhizoctonia solani, Phytophthora infestans, Colletotrichum orbiculare, and Sphaerotheca fusca. 2-Isopropyl-5-methylphenyl o-toluenesulfonate (1a), 2-isopropylphenyl 2,4,5-trichloro-benzenesulfonate (5b) and 2-isopropylphenyl 2-methyl-5-nitrobenzenesulfonate (5e) showed a potent in vivo antifungal activity against Pyrcularia grisea, Phytophthora infestans and Sphaerotheca fusca.

Fusarium circinatum is the causal agent of the pine disease commonly referred to as pitch canker. In this study, F. circinatum was isolated from the diseased Pinus rigida in the golf courses, Korea. The morphological characteristics and the molecular features of the isolates were investigated to identify the pathogen. Histone H3 gene and IGS rDNA region was analyzed and consequently the isolates identified as F. circinatum. All of them have the same sequences and the mating type was determined as MAT1-1. The inhibitory effect of the methanol extracts from the disease resistant pine species, Pinus koraiensis and Pinus densiflora and a susceptible species, P. rigida were evaluated against the isolate, F. circinatum. As a result, the extracts of P. koraiensis and P. densiflora showed higher antifungal activity than that of the susceptible, P. rigida.

A total of 24 isolates of S. homoeocarpa were isolated from 16 golf courses in Korea. Chemical resistance of 24 isolates was determined by in vitro fungal growth on fungicide-amended media with thiophanatemethyl (Benzimidazole fungicide family), tebuconazole (demethylation inhibitor fungicide family: DMI), and iprodione (dicarboximide fungicide family). Results indicated that 83.3% of 24 isolates were resistant to iprodione, 62.5% resistant to thiophanate-methyl and 0% resistant to tebuconazale. The dual resistance of iprodione and thiophanate-methyl was 58.3.%. Occurrence rate of fungicide resistance of thiophanate-methyl and iprodione had no relation to turfgrass varieties and isolated locations of pathogen. In the filed test, procymidone, boscalid, and fluquinconazole+pyrimethanil effectively controlled the dollar spot of creeping bentgrass.

Bacterial populations from the rhizosphere were obtained and the efficacy of the bacterial wilt suppression, root colonizing ability and resistance to three kinds of chemical pesticides were assayed. According to these results, SKU48-2 was selected as a potential biological agent to control the bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum. SKU48-2 strain at $10^8CFU/ml$ inoculum was able to suppress the bacterial wilt up to 60% in greenhouse trials. Also, the resistance of SKU48-2 to chemical pesticides make possible to use in combination with chemical pesticides for the control of bacterial wilt. Three different powder formulations of SKU48-2 were developed. The shelf-life of powder formulations was effective up to 6 months of storage. Unformulated bacterial suspension could not be stored for 2 weeks, at which time cell viability was completely lost. According to 16S rDNA sequence data, the SKU48-2 stain was identified as Bacillus subtilis.

In the middle of May 2018, typical red thread disease symptoms were observed on Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) on a golf course, which locates at Yangsan, Gyeongnam province in Korea. Irregular-shaped patched symptoms were observed in fairway of golf course. The foliar symptom was dried out and faded to straw color and tip of the grass leaves were tangled like thread. Early morning, infected and tangled leaves were covered with the pinkish gelatinous antler-like structure (sclerotinia) as a typical red thread disease symptom. Causal fungal pathogens were isolated from the symptom in Kentucky bluegrass. The fungal culture characteristic on potato dextrose agar color of colony was pale pink and conjugated hyphae, sclerotium of irregular shape was pale pink and 3~5mm diameter in size. The pathogen was identified as Laetisaria fuciformis based on morphological and culture characteristics as well as molecular characteristics. Pathogenicity test was verified on the Kentucky bluegrass by Koch's postulates. This is the first report of red thread disease occurrence in Kentucky bluegrass by L. fuciformis in Korea.
