To clarify some ambiguous diagnostic characters of Callicarpa japonica Thunb. and Callicarpa dichotoma (Lour.) K. Koch in Korea (Verbenaceae), the external morphology and micromorphology (leaf, anther, pollen, fruit, in particular endocarp surface and structure) of two taxa are studied and described in detail. It is confirmed that the following characteristics (e.g., the stem outline in a cross-section, the bud shape and length, the corolla tube length and the lobe length, the pattern of the anther dehiscence and length, and the endocarp morphology) are useful for distinguishing these two taxa. In particular, following three characteristics are most useful for an identification: (1) the corolla tube length of C. japonica (2.5-4.6 mm) is longer than that of C. dichotoma (0.7-1.0 mm); (2) the anther is dehiscing by an apical pore at the anthesis of C. japonica, while it is opening by a long fissure from the apex to the base in C. dichotoma; and (3) the edge of the endocarp (lateral view) in C. japonica is concave, while in C. dichotoma it is shown to be flat. On the other hand, the teeth state on the leaf margin and the position of inflorescence are not good diagnostic characteristics for identification. Additionally, the keys for all known Callicarpa taxa in Korea are provided.

This research is the palynotaxonomic revision to clarify palynological descriptions and relationships of taxa in Korean Verbenaceae. To do this, morphology, size, sculpture and aperture of pollen grain were investigated with scanning electron microscope. As a result, palynological key as to 5 genera 10 species drawn up. Palynological descriptions of Callicarpa dichotoma, Callicarpa mollis, Callicarpa chejuensis, Vitex chinensis and Caryopteris incana are near completion at first. Vervena officinalis are newly described and descriptions of Callicarpa japonica, Clerodendrum trichotomum, Vitex rotundifolia and Caryopteris divaricata are corrected. Palynological data of Korean Verbenaceae is useful to intrageneric relationships. Namely, as to genus Callicarpa, C. dichotoma and C. japonica are considered to be more advanced than C. mollis and C. chejuensis. As to genus Caryopteris, C. divaricata is more advanced than C. incana.

The distribution of orbicules was investigated for eleven taxa of six genera in Lamiaceae and four taxa of three genera in Verbenaceae using scanning electron microscopy. A literature survey to evaluate the phylogenetic potential of the orbicules and their possible correlations with tapetum types was also conducted. The orbicules are consistently absent in all investigated taxa of Lamiaceae, while small orbicules of an average size of less than $1{\mu}m$ are densely distributed in Verbenaceae. In fact, orbicules appear consistently in 123 of 150 angiosperm families when investigated in at least one species. Thus, the distribution patterns of orbicules could be a useful diagnostic character in angiosperms. In addition, orbicules occur in 84% taxa of the secretory tapetum type, while they are commonly absent in the amoeboid tapetum type (ca. 80%). The presence of orbicules may be correlated with the secretory tapetum type. However, the study of orbicules is restricted in 150 families and the tapetum type within these families can be applied for 92 families out of a total of 416 angiosperm families. Thus, further investigation of orbicules is necessary in extended taxa to address the questions pertaining to orbicules.

마편초과의 좀목형 엽에 함유된 물질의 allelopathy 효과를 구명하기 위해 수용성 엽 추출액, 메탄올 엽 추출액, 엽 분말과 토양과의 혼화된 pot에 각각 상치, 이탈이란라이그라스, 개솔새, 억새 종자를 발아실험하여 발아억제물질을 분석한 결과는다음과 같다. 1. 좀목형 엽 분말을 증류수에 각각 24, 48, 72 시간 침지 후 추출물에 상치, 이탈리안라이그라스, 개솔개, 억새 종자를 파종한 후의 발아율은 각 처리구마다 대조구마다 높은 발아억제를 보였고, 48시간 침지시에는 각각 26.9%, 58.8%, 6.6%, 22.2%의 발아율을 보여 강한 발아억제현상르 보였다. 2. 좀목형 엽 분말을 메탄올 75%에 24, 48시간 침지 후 추출물에 이탈리아라이그사스, 개솔새, 억새 종자를 파종한 후의 발아율은 48시간 추출액때 각각 33.3%, 15.4%, 7.7%를 보여 48시간 수용성 추출액과 24시간 메탄올 추출액보다 강한 발아억제효과가 있었다. 3. 좀목형 엽 분말과 Vermiculite를 1: 99.5: 95, 10:90, 20:80(w/w)으로 구분한 pot에 공시수종을 파종한 결과 엽 분말의 비율이 높을수록 발아억제효과가 컸으며, 엽 분말이 20%인 경우 발아된 부분의 건중량의 비율은 실험구와 대조구간에 비교한 발아율의 비율보다 훨씬 낮아 생장억제효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 4. Column chromatography의 TLC를 이용하여 최종 7 fraction을 찾고 생물검정 결과, 5, 6번 fraction에 강한 활성을 나타냈다. 5. UV 와 IR분광분석 결과 UV 분광분석은 256 nm과 336nm에서 흡수 최대를 나타내었으며, 이들은 시르시트시약을 사용하여 검토한 결과 7위에 에테르 결합한 전형적인 플라본류로 추정되었고, IR 분광분석 결과 지방족에 에테르결합이 존재하는 것으로 생각되었다. 6. Py-GC-MS 분석으로부터 5, 6 fraction의 경우 플라본류에 1개의 당이 결합한 배당체 구조이고 B환의 경우 1개 또는 2개 이상의 페놀성 수산기의 존재가 예상되었다.

Objective : For the purpose of developing Verbenaceae plants recorded in Korean Herbology in Korea, the literatures of the successive generations have been thoroughly investigated to prepare this article. Methods : Books and research papers about Herbology which published at Korea and other countries were examined. Results : A list was made about Verbenaceae plant which were cultivated or grew naturally in Korea, after investigated the data on domestic and foreign Verbenaceae plants. Out of those lists, serviceable plants were selected and with those available plants, their distributions were analysed and parts which can be used as medicines were divided into 3 categories such as oriental medicine name, scientific name and non-official name. Verbenaceae's properties flavor, channels they use, effects, and toxicity were also noted. Verbenaceae(grew in Korea) were divided into 5 classes with 21 species. Out of those, 5 classes with 8 species were found serviceable which indicates 40% of all. Out of all 20 species of Verbenaceae family, Callicarpa genus were found 10 species, which were shown the most. Among 3 genus of Vitex species, medicinal plants were all one species each. Out of all serviceable parts in Verbenaceae, Folium parts took first place as 5 species. There are no toxic, the survey said. Conclusion : There were totaled to 5 genera and 21 species in Verbenaceae in Korea and among them medicinal plants are 5 genera, 8 species, some 38% in total.
