Rust disease was found on broad bean (Vuia faba) in several farmer's fields located in Changseon-myon, Nam-hae-gun, Gyeongnam province in Korea. The infection rate of the disease in the surveyed area was 84.3% in 2002. The typical symptoms of the disease appeared first as small, white spots on leaves, stems and pods. Spots, then turn brownish, their edges rised slightly, and powdery mass of yellowish brown spores revealed on them. Severely infected leaves were eventually defoliated. Uredospores were light brown in color, ellipsoid or ovoid in shape and 24~38$\times$21~26 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. Teliospores were dark brown in color, ellipsoid or ovoid in shape and 22~42$\times$17~27 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. Pedicels were sienna to luteous in color and 52~116 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. The causal fungus was identified as Uromyces viciae-fabae, based on morphological characteristics. This is the first report on the rust of broad bean caused by Uromyces viciae-faae in Korea.

In order to establish the method to prepare and use the sulfur dioxide gas generating agent in low temperature storage of grape fruits, the $SO_2$ generation capacity from various sulfite compounds was investigated, and the method to regulate $SO_2$ gas generation and to detect the gas was developed. The conidial germination and mycelium growth of Botrytis cinerea which causes gray mold disease during grape fruit storage was completely inhibited at the $SO_2$ gas concentration of 400 ppm and 3200 ppm, respectively. Sodium hydrosulfite generated the most amount of $SO_2$ gas among the investigated 5 different sulfite or bisulfite compounds. By adjusting the number of pinholes on packaging film of the compound or by adding pH adjusting agent, e.g. citric acid or phosphates, it was possible to regulate the amount and duration of $SO_2$ gas generation from the compound. Because malachite green was quantitatively discolored by $SO_2$ gas, the solution or impregnated paper with the compound could be practically utilized as a indicator detecting $SO_2$ gas. Finally, when Muscat Bailey A grape was stored at low temperature with $SO_2$ gas generating agent, the disease incidence was reduced after storage.

Oak wilt caused by Raffaelea quercus-mongolicae was first noticed in South Korea in 2004 and, ever since, its distribution and damage have been increasing. To screen a fungicide effective for oak wilt control by tree injection, laboratory and field experiments were conducted. Ten fungicides and one antibiotic were examined in vivo for their effectiveness in restricting the growth of R. quercus-mongolicae and R. quercivora (Japanese oak wilt pathogen) isolates. To the Korean isolates of R. quercus-mongolicae, chlorothalonil showed the highest fungicidal effects, followed by benomyl and propiconazole. To the Japanese one, propiconazole was highest in the fungicidal effectiveness, followed by benomyl and bitertanol. Propiconazole was selected for field-testing of its control efficacy because it showed good fungicidal effects in vitro and systemic activity. The control efficacy in the field was 87.5% in the first year of injection and 66.7% in the second year, indicating the fungicidal effects last at least over one year.

Two soybean cultivars Hanan and Kwanggyo were used to monitor SMV spread in the field. The Haman producing mosaic symptoms by infection with SMV strain G7 was planted in $2.2m^2$ at the coater of $320.7m^2$ field and Kwanggyo producing necrosis by infection with SMV-G7 was planted around the Haman one day after inoculation of Heman with SMV-G7. The most severe incidence of the necrotic disease in soybean cultivar Kwanggyo occurred on 43 days after planting(July 13) whereas aphid population reached peak around 22 days after planting(June 22). Total incidence of the necrotic disease was $20.4\%$, in the whole field and $56\%$, in eight $mall plots around the spreader of SMV. The spread of S MV outward from the spreader source was greater downwind than it was upwind. Spread also showed a signigicant gradieut pattern leeward from the infection focus.

A plant growth promoting rhizobacterium, Bacillus vallismortis BS07M, was formulated as a clay pellet (CP) to evaluate its pepper growth promotion and induced resistance against various diseases under field and storage conditions. Peppers were grown in 50-hole tray containing potting mixture with CP in seedling raising stage, and then it was transplanted into a field. After transplanting, pepper plants treated with CP in seedling raising stage increased shoot growth and reduced disease severity caused by Phytophthora capsici in detached pepper leaves compared to untreated control. Moreover, treatment with CP in seedling raising stage increased fruit weight per plant; after harvesting, pepper fruits shown reduced diameter of lesions by Colletotrichum acutatum, and occurrance of soft rot in storage condition. These results indicated that CP could affect plant growth and induced resistance in pepper plants under field condition, and maintenance of fruit during storage.

To analyze the relationship between CGMMV occurrence and seed contamination by cucumber cultivars, cucumber cultivars of CGMMV infected field and diseased degree were investigated in cucumber main cultivation regions of Jeonnam province from 1999 to 2002. While the diseased degree was different by years and cultivars, CGMMV occurred for 4 years in 'Janghyeongnakhap', for 3 years in 'Jangjukcheongjang', and for 2 years in 'Gyeoulsali' and 'Gyeoulnagi'. CGMMV was detected in seeds of 'Janghyeongnakhap' and 'Jangjukcheongjang' by ELISA test, and seed of 'Jangjukcheongjang' showed positive reaction in bioassay. As a result of resistant test of 34 cultivars to CGMMV, all cultivars showed mosaic symptoms in pot test but only 'Hanboksamcheok' showed mild mosaic symptom in field test.

Occurrence of Fusarium wilt was surveyed in fields of cruciferous vegetable crops in Korea from 1996 to 1998. The disease severely occurred up to 40% in fields of Chinese cabbage and radish but slightly in Fields of cabbage. A total of 123 isolates was obtained from roots of the diseased plants and identified as Fusarium oxysporum based on the morphological and cultural characteristics. Pathogenicity of nine isolates selected from the isolates was tested by artificial inoculation to the hosts. All the isolates had similar virulence on Chinese cabbage and cabbage, although there were some differences in virulence on cultivars tested among the isolates. The isolates from radish were more virulent to radish than those from Chinese cabbage and cabbage. All isolates from the crucifers were not virulent to eight species of vegetable crops except the crucifers. The results of pathogenicity tests showed that the pathotype of Chinese cabbage-infecting isolates was identical to that of cabbage-infecting isolates, but somewhat different from that of radish-infecting isolates.

The occurrence of Fusarium wilt in strawberry fields in Korea was assessed from 2001 to 2003. Fusarium wilt was found from June to August in nursery beds, from September to October after planting in production beds, and from January to March during harvesting period. The symptoms were root rots, discolored vascular tissue in the crown and deformation and yellowing of central leaflets. The disease occurred in up to 30% of plants in 37 of 214 fields surveyed. Fusarium wilt occurred from cvs. ‘Dochiodome’, ‘Maehyang’, ‘Redpearl’, ‘Samaberry ’ and ‘Akihime’ and more severe from cvs. ‘Samaberry’, ‘Maehyang’ and ‘Dochiodome’. Infested soils had high salt concentrations, high nitrogen, phosphate concentrations and low pH. The results of pathogenicity test showed that Fo47 and Fo79 isolated from cvs. ‘Dochiodome’ and ‘Samaberry’ were strong pathogenic to all of four cultivars, and ‘Dochiodome’, ‘Redpearl’, ‘Maehyang’ were relatively susceptible to the all isolates.

To establish the simple and practical test method of estimating resistance of rice varieties against rice leafblight, trials were made to correlate among the four test methods such as true resistance test,secondaryinfection test, secondary epidemic test and field test. The results obtained through the experiment on 25 ricevarieties and 3 pathogenic isolates designated to HB9O11, HB9022 and HB9033 can be summarized asfollows. 1 .Based on the results of true resistance test, 25 rice varieties can be classified into four groups:1 )Samgang variety group ;resistant to HB9011, 13 varieties, 2)Pungsan variety group ; resistant to HB9011 and HB9022, 5 varieties, 3)Samgang variety group ; resistant to all three isolates, 2 varieties, 4)Unbongvariety group: sensitive to all three isolates, 12 varieties. 2. The responses of rice varieties to isolates showed some discrepancies among on the test methods. These examples were found in 3 varieties including Yeongdeog varieties to HB9011, 3 varieties including Taebaeg variety to HB9022 and Taebaek vaieties to HB9033. 3. Correlation coefficiences between the secondary infection test and the secondary epidemic test for HB9011, HB9022 and HB9033 were 0.972, 0.894 and 0.919, respectively. It suggests that the two methods are not significantly different so that one of the two methods are not significantly different so that one of the two methods can be omitted from resistant test without affecting the result. 4. Between the true resistance test and the field test at the disease common area, there were no significant correlations. Unbong, Chucheong and Yeongdeog varieties are appeared as resistant varieties in the true resistant test, but their responses in the field test were different and appeared as sensitive varieties. 5. The disease index was used to express theresults from four test methods. The disease index was calculated as the sum of each numerical values of theresults from the four test methods by giving the same weights(0 to 25)to each test method. If the disease index for certain variety is less than 15, then the variety is considered to be resistant. 4 varieties such as Seohae, Hwajin, Yeongdeog and Pungsan varieties-disease indices were less than 15 were selected as field resistance varieties.

Rhizopus soft rot of lily (Lilium longiflorum) caused by Rhizopus oryzae was observed in the experimental field in Taean Lily Experiment Station in Korea, 2012. The typical symptoms were water-soaked lesions on bottom stem and leaf rot. The lesion rapidly expanded and the plant was softened totally. The fungus grew vigorously at an optimum temperature ($25^{\circ}C$) and brownish colony and black sporangia were formed on potato dextrose agar medium. Sporangiophores formed on end of sporangia were sub-globose, brownish and $6-10{\mu}m$ in size. Sporangia were globose, blackish and $87-116{\mu}m$ in size. Sporangiospores were irregularly oval and sub-globose, brownish $4-8{\mu}m$ in size. On the basis of mycological characteristics, analyzing sequences of internal transcribed spacer region of ribosomal DNA, and pathogenicity test on host plants, the causal fungus was identified as R. oryzae. This is the first report of Rhizopus soft rot on lily caused by R. oryzae in Korea.
