New plant viral diseases are being reported every year. However, most of the plant viruses are found on nonwoody plants, such as cereals, vegetables and flowering plants, and relatively few are known on woody trees. On the other hand, 17 viruses have been reported on 11 species of woody plants in Korea, so far. Most of the viral diseases of woody plants are have been reported on fruit trees or ornamental trees. The reason is that the fruit trees or ornamental trees is more important than forest trees in economical aspects. Since many known plant viruses attack several species of nonwoody and woody plants, it is likely that a larger number of viral diseases of woody plants will be discovered as more research is conducted. This paper is an overview about the viral diseases of woody plants reported in Korea.

The purpose of this investigation is to point out the physical fixation and stability of banking slopes of forest roads by invasion of trees. We investigated the situations of sediment discharge and coverage of invaded trees at banking slopes of forest roads. The coverage of invaded trees were calculated from crown injection based on the stable slope and was compared with length of slope, slope gradient, and passage years after construction of forest road. 1. We investigated on the sediment discharge and the invasion of trees at banking slopes, which were actually observed 8 forest roads of Kyonggi-Do and Kangwon-Do. 2. There was no physical stability of the banking slope due to the surface erosion and slope failure, but the tree invasions were active at the stable plots. 3. The length of slope was constructed to 4.0m to 61.0m and recent forest road was mainly constructed to the slopes longer than 30m. There was strong regional effect between the length of slope and the coverage of invaded trees and the above two factors were inversely proportional to each other. 4. There was no significant relationship between the slope gradient and the coverage of invaded trees and the slope constructed within the angle of repose showed the relatively high coverage of invaded trees. 5. There was no significant relationship between the passage years and the coverage of invaded trees in the same investigative region after the construction of forest road. But there was a gradually increasing relationship of tree invasion between above two factors. However, there was some limitation to expect the invasion of the tree species. 6. In the light of the above results, we suggest that the construction of forest road may need foundation work and vegetation work simultaneously for the physical stability to make the environment of tree plantation and that the reasonable increase of construction cost of forest road may be prior to the other factors.

This study was conducted to find out the appropriate rates of mixed-seeding of native woody and herb species. It was carried out in greenhouse from 1994 to 1995. The early days germination individuals were $60no./m^2$ in case of woody species for mixed seeding treatment and the treatments were fertilization, soil surface treatment, seeding amount. The investigation factors are the number of individuals of woody and herb species, biomass, height, number of tillers, etc. The mean individuals of Lespedeza bicolor and Amorpha frutzcosa were investigated $1.14no./m^2$, $0.496no./m^2$ in 1995, and Spiraea prunifolia var. simpliciflora and Alnus hirsuta were withering to death. In 1995, the Individuals of Oenothera odorata, Themeda triandra var. japonica, Cymbopogon tortilis var. goeringii, Miscanthus sinensis, Artemisia princeps var. orientalis, Lespedeza cuneata, and Arundinella hirta were investigated $5.06no./m^2$, $1,072no./m^2$, $0no./m^2$, $412.53no./m^2$, $88.6no./m^2$, $8.9no./m^2$, $57.46no./m^2$, respectively, in case of herb species. The height and biomass of Lespedeza bicolor and Amorpha fruticosa showed very fast growth, and those of Themeda triandra var. japonica, Miscanthus sinensis had a similar tendency. For the changes in woody species, according to the seeding amount, there was no significant relationship between species, but It was highly significant in 1995. In case of the herb species, the relationship between the number of individuals and seeding amount was significant for both 1994 and 1995. The most number of tiller was Miscanthus sinensis(21), and showed Themeda triandra var. japonica, Arundinella hirta in descending order. For the mixed seeding of wood and herb species, the number of individuals, height, biomass, tiller of herb species diminished as the seeding amount of herb species increased. It can be concluded that using Lespedeza bicolor and Amorpha fruticosa for woody species and like Arundinella hirta in herb species will be efficient for revegetation measures. It seems, therefore, that the plants of revegetation methods will be used to Lespedeza bicolor, Amorpha fruticosa and Arundinella hirta, and further study is needed on the seeding amount.

우리나라의 기후변화연구에서 삼림생태계의 영향과 적응은 가장 중요한 관심사중 하나이다. 지리적 위치와 통일문제 등을 고려할 때, 한반도는 역동적인 개발이 이루어질 지역이며 인구와 경제적 상황의 변화로 삼림 생태계에 급격한 변화가 예상된다. 기후변화의 영향은 이러한 상황을 더욱 복잡하게 만들게 될 것이다. 본 연구에서는 이런 영향을 평가하기 위해, IS92a 시나리오의 GCMs(General Circulation Models)결과들을 이용하여 가능한 기온 증가 범위내에서 삼림생태계의 변화를 예측하였다. 변화를 추정하기 위해 AIM/Impact[Korea](the Asian-Pacific Integrated Model) 모형을 이용하여 시기별 Holdridge 생물기후대를 예측하고 목본식물의 이동속도를 고려한 지역삼림의 영향 및 적응 패턴을 분석하여 생태계 변화로 인한 경제적 가치 손실액을 추정하였다. 분석 결과는 다음과 같이 요약된다. 1) 목본식물의 추정 평균이동속도 0.25km/년의 경우, 한반도에서 삼림소실지역은 발생하지 않는 것으로 예측되었다. 그러나 인위적 개입이 없는 경우 고사의 위험이 높은 지역은 남한의 경우 남한 총면적의 14%를 차지하였고, 북한은 18%정도의 면적이 고사 위험이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 남한 고사위험지역의 80%는 난온대림 지역으로 주로 남해일원과 전라도 서해안에서 발생하며, 북한은 고사위험지역의 대부분이 냉온대림지역으로 주로 평안도 내륙지역과 중국 접경지경, 함경남도의 영흥만 북부에서 나타났다. 2) 목본식물의 이동속도 변화에 따라 남한은 매년 0~976백만불, 북한은 0~2,492백만불 범위의 경제적 가치손실이 발생하는 것으로 예측되었다. 또한 목본식물의 추정 평균이동속도가 0.25km/년일 경우, 한반도 전체의 가치손실액은 매년 3,471백만불에 달했으며, 남한의 경우 목본식물의 이동속도가 0.5km/년 이상인 경우 삼림의 경제적 가치 손실은 발생하지 않았다.

The management of Ricania spp. is difficult because this pest has a wide host range and diverse habitats such as agricultural, suburban, urban, and forested areas. However, the researches for Ricania spp. management have been focused on only agricultural crops. Thus, it is required to determine the arboreal host preference of Ricania spp. at the surrounding areas of the farms to increase its management efficiency. To determine its host preference at arboreal plants, we reviewed the previous studies and investigated the densities of Ricania spp. at woody plants with high ecological importance but insufficiently studied. This study identified 120 species in 53 families of arboreal hosts of Ricania spp. Only Cornus officinalis and Styrax japonicus were preferred by all developmental stages of Ricania spp. The host preference of Ricania spp. was changed according to its developmental stages. This phenomenon would be caused by that each developmental stage of Ricania spp. would prefer different parts of woody plant, and require different nutrients for its survivor and reproduction. These results of this study could be helpful to make a plan of comprehensive management strategies for Ricania spp.

본 연구에서는 자연형 소하천정비 시범사업 중에서 2003년 하천정비공사가 완료된 후 식생의 침입과 정착하는 과정을 조사함으로서 교란된 하천을 자연형 하천으로 복원하는데 생태학적으로 어떤 공법이 최적의 공법인가를 알아보고자 각 호안공법 별로 식생의 변화특성을 분석한 것으로 결론은 다음과 같다. 이동 소하천에 적용된 다양한 공법(자연석 쌓기, 식생축조블록, 그린리버(환경)블록, 스톤넷, 친환경 돌망태, 식생매트, 환경블록 H형, 반딧불 블록, 지오그린셀, 자연석 3단쌓기 호안)으로 정비된 자연형 하천 복원 후의 식생조성과 목본식물의 침입 및 정착 과정을 조사하였다. 9가지의 공법 중에서 식생 조성과 목본식물의 침입과 정착에 양호하다고 판단된 공법은 자연석 2단 및 3단 쌓기가 가장 좋다고 판단되었고, 그 다음은 지오그린셀 공법, 식생 매트 공법 그리고 그린리버 공법의 순이었다. 친환경 돌망태 공법, 환경블록 공법, 환경 H블록 공법, 식생 축조 블록 공법 및 반딧불 블록 공법은 다른 공법에 비하여 적절하지 못한 공법이었다. 각 공법 간 식생 조성의 유사도 비교에 의하면 시간이 지남에 따라 하천 복원 후 하천 변의 식생이 한 방향으로 서서히 수렴되어 가고 있었다. 하천 공법에 관계없이 봄에 침입하는 식물을 보면 둑의 사면에는 갈퀴나물, 큰김의털, 쑥, 환삼덩굴, 점나도나물 이었고, 수로에는 고마리, 소리쟁이, 미나리, 개구리자리였다. 여름에는 둑 사면에 망초, 억새, 환삼덩굴, 토끼풀이, 수로에는 고마리, 미나리, 미국가막사리, 닭의장풀, 그리고 가을에 많이 침입한 식물은 사면에 파종된 외래식물인 큰김의털, 식재한 억새, 강아지풀 및 환삼덩굴이었음을 알 수 있었다. 처음 침입한 목본은 갯버들, 아카시나무, 내버들 및 버드나무 등 4종이었으나, 1년 후에는 싸리, 산딸기, 쥐똥나무 및 뽕나무가 새로 침입하였다. 이렇게 침입한 목본식물들은 복원된 하천에 다른 물리적인 교란이 심하게 가해지지 않는다면 당분간 계속 생장할 것으로 사료된다.

This study analyzed methodologies for estimating carbon stocks of perennial woody crops and the research cases in overseas countries. As a result, we found that Australia, Bulgaria, Canada, and Japan are using the stock-difference method, while Austria, Denmark, and Germany are estimating the change in the carbon stock based on the gain-loss method. In some overseas countries, the researches were conducted on estimating the carbon stock change using image data as tier 3 phase beyond the research developing country-specific factors as tier 2 phase. In South Korea, convergence studies as the third stage were conducted in forestry field, but advanced research in the agricultural field is at the beginning stage. Based on these results, we suggest directions for the following four future researches: 1) securing national-specific factors related to emissions and removals in the agricultural field through the development of allometric equation and carbon conversion factors for perennial woody crops to improve the completeness of emission and removals statistics, 2) implementing policy studies on the cultivation area calculation refinement with fruit tree-biomass-based maturity, 3) developing a more advanced estimation technique for perennial woody crops in the agricultural sector using allometric equation and remote sensing techniques based on the agricultural and forestry satellite scheduled to be launched in 2025, and to establish a matrix and monitoring system for perennial woody crop cultivation areas in the agricultural sector, Lastly, 4) estimating soil carbon stocks change, which is currently estimated by treating all agricultural areas as one, by sub-land classification to implement a dynamic carbon cycle model. This study suggests a detailed guideline and advanced methods of carbon stock change calculation for perennial woody crops, which supports 2050 Carbon Neutral Strategy of Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Rural Affairs and activate related research in agricultural sector.

The prediction of changes regarding the distribution of vegetation and plant species according to climate changes is important for ecosystem management. In this study, we attempted to develop an assessment method to evaluate the possibility of the potential distribution of warm-temperate woody plant species of East Asia in Korea. To begin with, a list of warm-temperate woody plants distributed in China and Japan, but not in Korea, was prepared, and a database consisting their global distribution and bioclimatic variables was constructed. In addition, the warm-temperate vegetation zone in Korea was delineated using the coldness index and relevant bioclimatic data were collected. After the exclusion of multicollinearity among bioclimatic variables using correlation analysis, mean temperature of the coldest quarter, mean temperature diurnal range, and annual precipitation were selected as the major variables that influence the distribution of warm-temperate plants. A multivariate environment similarity surfaces (MESS) analysis was conducted to calculate the similarity scores between the distribution of these three bioclimatic variables in the global distribution sites of the East Asian warm-temperate woody plants and the Korean warm-temperate vegetation zone. Finally, using stepwise variable-selection regression, the mean temperature of the coldest quarter and annual precipitation were selected as the main bioclimatic variables that affect the MESS similarity index. The mean temperature of the coldest quarter accounted for 88% of the total variance. For a total of 319 East Asian warm-temperate woody plant species, the possibility of their potential distribution in Korea was evaluated by applying the constructed multivariate regression model that calculates the MESS similarity index.
