To improve the germination performance of rice seeds under suboptimal temperature, osmopriming with PEG-6000 was examined. Optimal PEG-6000 concentration to improve germination was 20% PEG-6000 solution, and rice cultivars used in this experiment were Sinunbongbyeo, Gancheokbyeo, Dongjinbyeo. The water content of seeds after soaking for 60 hours in the PEG solution is similar to that of seeds after soaking for 24 hours in the distilled water. Germination performance of the soaked seeds in the PEG solution was higher than that of the soaked seeds in the distilled water or the control, especially under suboptimal temperatures. Electrical conductivity of the soaked seeds in the PEG solution was lower than that of the soaked seeds in the distilled water or the control, and total dehydrogenase activity of the soaked seeds in the PEG solution was higher than that of the soaked seeds in the distilled water or the control. SDS-PAGE results of soluble protein from the embryos of seeds primed differently showed darker band in the seeds soaked in the PEG solution than the seeds soaked in the distilled water or the control at the 68 KD region. Also, band patterns of peroxidase and esterase of embryos soaked in the PEG solution were darked than that of embryos soaked in the distilled water or the control at the Rf 0.94 and Rf 0.87, respectively.

This study aimed to investigate the physicochemical characteristics of fish meal, bone meal, and sesame oil cake, which are readily available by-products from agriculture and fisheries, during the process of liquid fertilizer fermentation, and to examine the effects of liquid fertilizer application on seed germination and growth of tomatoes. During processing the fermentation for liquid fertilizers by using fish meal, bone meal, and sesame oil cake liquid fertilizers, the pH of the fertilizer increased in the order of bone meal > fish meal > sesame oil cake, and the concentration increased rapidly up to 30 days in all types of liquid fertilizer. The nitrogen content of the liquid fertilizers increased as fermentation progressed in the order of fish meal > bone meal > sesame oil cake. The phosphorus content increased as fermentation progressed and the highest was 1.0 % in the liquid fertilizer of sesame oil cake. The germination rate and its index of radish seeds were compared for different dilutions of each of the liquid fertilizers. Excluding the 10-fold dilution of the fish meal and oil cake liquid fertilizer, all the treatment groups showed a germination rate ≥ 95 % and the germination index tended to increase with dilution rate of liquid fertilizers. For responses of tomato growth, there were no significant differences among the liquid fertilizer treatment groups; however, the organic content, microbial density, and microbial biomass C in the soil were higher than chemical fertilizer treatment. These results demonstrated that there were differences in the characteristics of liquid fertilizers depending on the materials used, and that liquid fertilizer can be used for nutrition management for the organic crop cultivation.

This study was carried out to seek for a most effective hastening method of seed germination by Pon-Pon treatment and asexual multiplication method by cutting in Zanthozylum piperitum. The results obtained in this study were as follows : 1. Cold moist stratification under the ground accompanied with Pon-Pon treatment was shown 74.3% of seed germination, which was the most effective one among pretreatment methods with significance at 1% level. 2. Height growth was shown continuous growth pattern and the maximum growth was shown during the period 1 July to 31 July, which corresponds 40.3% of total annual growth. 3. Although no noticeable difference among the kind of plant growth regulator in the rooting rate, there was difference among concentrations with significance at 1% level. 4. In the case of number of primary roots and T/R rate of rooted cuttings, treatment of plant growth regulators was significantly superior to control. 5. T/R rate in rooted cuttings was a high negative correlation (r=-0.7164) with the number of primary roots.

Present experiments are conducted to study the seed viability and optimum germination temperature of Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum that is known to have low germination ability and long germination duration. To enhance germination rate, various growth regulators and inorganic salts were employed. Low germination rate was obtained with 4 year old seeds, but not with $1{\sim}2$ year old seeds. The seeds germinated very well under $22{\sim}25^{\circ}C$ and germinated speed was rapid. Especially, $1{\sim}2$ year old seeds germinated at $25^{\circ}C$ showed $70{\sim}71.2%$ germination rate. Priming treatments using $GA_3$, IAA, NAA, kinetin, $KNO_3$, $KH_2PO_4$, $Ca(NO_3)_2$ were effective compared to control except BA. 1 year old seeds treated with $GA_3$ 0.5 mM and IAA 1 mM showed 96% and 93% germination rate, respectively.

This research was performed to develop seminal propagation method of Saururus chinensis (Lour.) Baill. by conducting a rigorous germination study. Well-selected seeds were dry-stored at 4 ± 1.0℃ during the experiment. To study dormancy type, non-stored seeds were analyzed by embryo observation, germination test and detecting for any difficulties in seed coat to absorb moisture. Then to improve germination, seeds were submerged for 24 hours in a solution of varying concentrations containing one of plant growth regulators and minerals. According to research, fleshly matured seeds had an undifferentiated embryo and had a low germination rate below 5%. In addition, water submersion led to moisture absorption, embryo in the seeds grew and germinated so it was deemed morphophysiological dormant seeds. Percent germination (PG) and germination energy (GE) was greatly improved by soaking in plant growth regulators and minerals for 24 hours. Especially, 500 ㎎/L GA₃ treatment resulted in the highest GE as 46.1%. KNO₃ meaningfully improved PG (54.3∼57.7%) at 10∼20 mM but effect of minerals on germination acceleration as GE were negatively impacted in all concentrations.

Salinity and drought stresses are probably the most significant abiotic factor limiting plant's growth, also negatively affect seed germination and early seedling development. To study on effect of NaCl and PEG stress on seed germination and gene expression pattern of tall fescue, the levels of NaCl and PEG-induced water stresses were determined in first experiment. Different concentration of NaCl (0 to 350 mM) and PEG (0 to 30%) were used for seed treatment. Seed Germination percentage reduced with increasing osmotic potential of growth medium either due to NaCl or PEG. Seeds were not germinate at 350 mM NaCl or 30% PEG treatment. On the basis of the results, Kentucky31(E-) had more resistant than Fawn in both stress conditions. Furthermore, we have used an annealing control primer-based differential display reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction method to identify salt- and drought stress-induced differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in tall fescue leaves. Using 120 annealing control primers, a total of 4 genes were identified and sequenced. The possible roles of the identified DEGs are discussed in the context of their putative role during salinity and drought stresses.

In this study, quantitative analysis of major volatile flavor compounds from yogurt was conducted using headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) GC-FID analysis technique, and the changes of volatile aroma compounds during the storage period were evaluated. The yogurt was prepared with the addition of 2% cereals, such as, white rice (WR), brown rice (BR), germinated brown rice (GBR) and saccharified germinated brown rice (SGBR). After fermentation, the products were stored at $5^{\circ}C$for 15 d. The major volatile aroma compounds in yogurt, such as acetaldehyde, acetone, diacetyl and acetoin were able to be extracted using HS-SPME technique efficiently. The regression ($r^2$) value of standard curve prepared with various concentrations of individual flavor chemicals was analyzed over 0.9975, and reproducibility was acceptable to apply quantitative analysis. The analysis of volatile components of control sample during storage showed that the acetaldehyde on 0 d was 10.83 ppm, and that contents were increased to 15.67 ppm after 15 d of storage. However, addition of BR, GBR and SGBR decreased the acetaldehyde contents during storage periods. The acetone content of all treatments during storage was not significantly different. The diacetyl content of all treatments were increased during storage and the addition of SGBR showed the highest amount of diacetyl (0.84 ppm) among treatments on 15 d of storage. The acetoin content of yogurt added with grains was higher than that of control during storage. As a result, the content of volatile aroma compounds in yoghurt during storage period could be analyzed HS-SPME extraction technique effectively, and HS-SPME/GC analysis can be considered for quality control of fermented milk products.
