민속식물과 그 이용에 관한 전통지식이 산업화, 도시화 및 노인 세대의 퇴장과 더불어 빠르게 사라지고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 민속식물 주권확보 기반구축을 위하여 2005년부터 2017년까지 1차(2005~2013), 2차(2014~2017)에 걸쳐 남한 전역 및 함경북도 접경지역을 대상으로 각 지역에서 전통적으로 이용해왔으며 전승되어 온 민속식물 관련 전통지식을 발굴 및 수집하였다. 민속식물 중 약용으로 사용된 것은 121과 383속 583종 3아종 64변종 12품종으로 총 662분류군으로 확인되어 식용 다음으로 큰 비중을 차지하였다. 이는 한반도 전체 관속식물 4,881분류군의 약 13.6%에 해당하며, 총 115,236건의 조사된 전통지식 중 17.9%를 약용이 점유하여 식용(67.2%) 다음이며 용재용(4.9%), 유지용(2.5%), 관상용(1.3%) 등에 비하여 상당히 높게 나타났다. 662분류군 중 자생식물은 511분류군(77.2%)으로 나타났고, 생활형은 다년생 초본이 295분류군(44.6%)으로 낙엽성 목본(186분류군), 1년생 초본(78분류군) 등 타 생활형에 보다 높았다. 약용식물의 이용부위는 뿌리(34.1%)가 가장 많았고 그 다음으로 줄기(16.2%), 잎(15.4%), 열매(12.1%), 전초(12.1%), 수피(3.2%), 종자(2.4%), 꽃(1.9%) 등의 순으로 나타났다. 우리나라에서 이용빈도가 높은 상위 10개 분류군을 살펴보면 익모초, 쇠무릎, 인동덩굴, 느릅나무, 삽주, 엉겅퀴, 쑥, 질경이, 오갈피나무, 할미꽃 등의 순으로 조사되었다. 본 연구에서는 민속식물의 이용에 대한 중요도를 알아보기 위하여 특정식물 종의 이용을 언급한 정보보유자의 수(FC: Frequency of Citations), 이용범주의 수(NC: Number of use-Categories), 특정식물을 이용하는 수(UR: number of User Reports)를 활용하여 문화적 중요도(CI: Cultural Importance), 상대적 인용빈도(RFC: Relative Frequency of Citations), 상대적 중요도(RI: Relative Importance) 및 문화적 가치(CV: Cultural Value)를 산출하여 우리나라에서 중요한 민속식물을 정량적으로 확인, 비교하였고 각 분류군별 지수도 제시하였다.

The great part of the traditional knowledge on ethnobotanical plants and their uses is gradually vanishing due to industrialization, therefore ethnobotanical studies that explore and preserve the knowledge are in urgent needed before the knowledge are lost ever. This study was conducted to record and conserve the traditional knowledge of botanical taxa in Korea from 2006 to 2014. According to the survey results, derived from 17,328 sheets of 1,771 residents at 868 places, the ethnobotanical plants in Korea consisted of a total 924 taxa; 130 families, 493 genera, 813 species, 7 subspecies, 92 varieties and 12 form. Of them, herbs were 619 taxa (67.0%) and woody plants were 305 taxa (33.0%). 707 taxa (76.5%) out of 924 taxa grow wild, 44 taxa (4.8%) were cultivated wild species, 145 taxa (15.7%) were introduced for cultivation, and 28 taxa (3.0%) were naturalized plants. The analysis of usage for 924 taxa showed that the edible use was the highest with 58.9%, followed by medicinal with 26.9%, material with 3.7% and ornamental with 2.3%, respectively. The leaf of plant was the most useful part, followed by stem and root. Quantitative analysis of the ethnobotanical plants in Korea was performed by the basic values of FC, NU and UR, and indices of CI, RFC, RI and CV. As a result, The CI place Artemisia princeps in first position, followed by Aster scaber, Kalopanax septemlobus. The RFC place A. scaber in first position, followed by A. princeps, Aralia elata. The RI place A. princeps in first position, followed by Pinus densiflora, Morus alba. The CV place A. princeps in first position, followed by P. densiflora, K. septemlobus.

Under circumstances of rapid disappearing of traditional ethnobotanical knowledge, traditional ethnobotanical knowledge surveys are the major step in documenting useful species with a conservation priority. In the ethnobotanical research, the relevance to the survey intensity, ethnobotanical information and plant species richness is the most important research theme. We made up TEK database in south Korea using metadata which had been published by the Korea National Arboretum. We calculated species richness using species richness estimator like ACE, Chao1, Chao2, ICE, Jack 1, Jack 2, and Bootstrap. Species accumulation curves showed each province sampling efforts appeared to be wide range of variance so that Gangwon province need more sampling efforts, and Chungnam province approached a horizontal asymptote earlier. We found heterogeneous patterns in the rarefaction curves of TEK species between gender for each categories of use (medicinal, food and handicrafts). Comparing with regional floral diversities, it was predicted that more diverse species would be found in some provinces by carrying out additional survey.

This study was conducted during two separate periods, from April to December 2008 and from April to November 2013, to identify the folk plants growing in Jeollanam-do which are used daily. A total of 1,200 questionnaires were distributed to 120 residents living in 14 counties and cities. From the results of the survey, 172 taxa of folk plants (77 families, 153 genera, 154 species, 2 subspecies, 14 varieties, and 2 forma) were identified. By regions, the city of Suncheon yielded 82 taxa, followed by 67 taxa from Gurye county, 65 taxa from Hampyeong county, 64 taxa from Jangseong county, 62 taxa from city of Naju, and 61 taxa from Jangheung county. Uses of the identified folk plants were: as edibles (117 taxa), for medicinal purposes (66 taxa), tea (15 taxa), for starch (6 taxa) for vegetable fat and oil (3 taxa), for nectar (2 taxa), for sap (2 taxa), for spice (2 taxa), for aroma (1 taxa), for fiber (1 taxa), and others (14 taxa). Thus, edible and medicinal uses of the plants appeared higher than other uses. The consistency of the local names of plants with the standard botanical nomenclature was 23.2% (40 taxa), while the proportion of local plant names analogous to the standard names was 18.6% (32 taxa). The consistency of the local plant names with the same plants in different cities and counties was 28.5% (49 taxa) and the proportion of local plant names analogous to each other in this category was 25.6% (44 taxa). Therefore, 54% of the folk plants growing in Jeollanam-do are known by location specific names. The usage types of the local folk plants were mostly collected through verbal communications.

This study was carried out to classify the folk plants in Ulleung island. According to the survey results from 553 sheets of 55 residents at 20 places from march 2009 to september 2010, the folk plants in Ulleung island consisted of a total 113 taxa; 51 families, 93 genera, 98 species, 2 subspecies and 13 varieties. Among the investigated 113 taxa; 5 Korean endemic plants, 14 rare plants and 5 naturalized plants were also included. The use by usage of 113 taxa was; 72 as medicinal, 65 as edible, 5 as ornamental, etc., respectively, so the medicinal use is the highest. The most useful part was leaf, followed by fruit and root. The consistency comparison between the korean name and the local name were the highest in the people in 40's and the lowest in those in 70's.

To survey and collect the traditional knowledge on the regional folk plants, we interviewed 125 (male 37, female 88) native inhabitants in inland, 12 cities and counties of Chungnam province from March to October, 2011. The results showed that the regional folk plants in inland of Chungnam province consisted of a total 273 taxa; 92 families, 225 genera, 237 species, 4 subspecies, 29 varieties and 3 forms. Of 273 taxa surveyed ; 5 Korean endemic plants, 8 rare plants and 16 naturalized plants were also included. And of 273 taxa, cultivated plants were 82 taxa and 191 taxa were wild plants. The analysis of use by usage for 273 taxa showed that the edible use was the highest with 981 times, followed by medicinal with 439 times, material with 179 times, oil with 68 times, respectively. The leaf of plant was the most useful part, followed by stem and fruit. The consistency comparison between the Korean name and the local name were the highest in 50's and the lowest in 90's.
