This study was carried out to determine the optimal conditions for the production of plants derived from the unpollinated ovary culture of Chinese chive (Allium tuberosum Rottl.). The Chinese chive collected from Korea showed much higher frequency of plantlet formation than those from Japan in the culture of unpollinated ovaries. Among the collections, 'Youngiljaerae' showed the highest frequency of plantlet formation. The MS basal medium was superior to B/sub 5/ in plantlet formation. The ovaries inoculated on the 2,4-D-free medium were directly induced plantlets without callus formation. Floral parts inoculated as a unit played important roles in callus formation and plant production. The frequency of callus and plantlet formation was higher in the culture of ovary with anthers than that of ovary alone.

Comparison results of callus formation ratio from seed explants, callus sizes, regeneration ratios from callus and regeneration efficiency [calculated by following formular; callus formation ratio(%) ${\times}$ regeneration ratio(%)/100] for 27 ochardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.)varieties imported and Hapsung 2 developed in Korea are as follows; 1. Among ochardgrass varieties showing more than 50% callus formation ratios, the descending order of callus formation ratio after bedding the seed explants for 4 weeks was 93M>Sparta> Pizza>Condor>Lidaglo>Glorus>Hapsung 2>Frode. 2. The callus sizes after bedding for 4 weeks were in the range of $\Phi$ 0.43cm~4.2cm in which there was 10 times size difference between the largest one and the smallest one but most of them were between ${\Phi}2.5cm~4cm$. 3. The regeneration ratio from callus among varieties were in the range of 0~36% and descending order of the upper 6 varieties was Plano>Akimidori>Justus>Lidacta>Currie>Hall mark. 4. The regeneration efficiency which is calculated by the ratios of regeneration from seed explant numbers was between 0 to 17.4% among which Justus showed the highest value in the 4-week treatment. 5. The correlation between callus formation ratios and the callus sizes, callus formation ratios and regeneration efficiency, and callus sizes and regeneration efficiency were r=0.5765, r=0.6365 and r=0.6246, respectively in 4-week callus and all the correlations were significant on the 1% level. 6. In 6-week callus, the descending order callus formation ratios from seed explants fur the best 6 varieties was Condor>Sparta>93 M>Justus>Potomac>Lidaglo>Frode. 7. The callus sizes formed were between ${\Phi}1.5~5.7cm$ in which Sparta, the largest one of ${\Phi}5.7cm$ was five times larger than the smallest one. The callus size of the control variety, Hapsung 2 was ${\Phi}3.8cm$, which belonged to a larger size. 8. Regeneration ratio showed a great deviation among varieties from 6-week old calli by showing from 0% to 100% in which all the calli were regenerated in Piano while no callus was regenerated in Juno. 9. The range of regeneration efficiency was between 0~28% among varieties in which the values from 6-week callus treatment were larger than those from 4-week callus treatment. Especially, the value of Potomac in 6-week was 3 times larger than that in 4-week. 10. The correlation between callus formation ratios and the callus sizes, callus formation ratios and regeneration efficiency, and callus sizes and regeneration efficiency were r=0.5369, r=0.6683 and r=0.5937. respectively in 6-week callus, and all the correlations were significant on the 1% level.

The competence of callus formation and plant regeneration from root derived callus was higher in japonica cultivars than those of Tongil-type cultivars of rice. A japonica type cultivars Yeongdeogbyeo, showed the highest capacity (13%) for plant regeneration from root calli of 6 cultivars tested. The callus induced from seed and root tissues maintained higher capacity for plant regeneration during 7 passages of subculture on N$_{6}$ solid media at 2-week intervals. The maximum frequency (2 x 10$^{5}$ mL) of round cells and their cell colonies showed about 24 days after suspension culture of root-derived callus in N$_{6}$ medium with lmg/L 2,4-D, 300mg/L casein hydrolysate, 10mM L-proline, 20g/L sucrose and 30g/L sorbitol. The frequency of somatic embryo formation in suspension cultures of root-derived callus increased with prolonged advance of subculture time from 30 to 90 days, but their regenerative capacities decreased.

Immature ovule of intergeneric $F_1$ hybrid between Platycodon grandiflorum x Codonopsis lanceolata for producing embryogenic callus. somatic embryos and plant regeneration were cultured in vitro on various medium as well as MT(Murashige Tucker)medium treated with different concentration of plant growth regulators. Embryogenic callus induction was highest in the treatment of NAA 0.5 $mg/{\ell}$ and zeatin 0.01 $mg/{\ell}$ added on MT medium, whereas it was lower in treatments with auxins alone. MT medium were more effective in production of somatic embryos from incubated embryogenic callus. Most favorable plant growgh regulator for producing somatic embryos was 2. 4-D 0.5 $mg/{\ell}$ and zeation. BAP 0.01$mg/{\ell}$, but hormone-free and auxins alone were less effective. NAA 0.01$mg/{\ell}$ added with zeation 0.5 $mg/{\ell}$ was effective as high as NAA 0.01 $mg/{\ell}$ alone in normal plant regeneration from somatic embryo.

The study was carried out to develop efficiency of transformantion in pepper plants. We used cotyledons of two native varieties, 'Subicho' and 'Kumtap' to establish some conditions of plant regeneration. Differentiation rate of shoot was higher in 2 to 4 mg/l zeatin and 0.05 mg/l NAA than in other treatments. Meanwhile, differential rate of roots was the highest in 0.5 mg/l NAA.

To investigate the effect of growth regulators and antioxidant in anther floating cultures of rice, anthers were cultured in liquid media supplemented with different growth regulators, and the effect of antioxidant mixture : (Sigma Chemical Co.) on callus induction and plant regeneration were investigated. N6 medium with 1 mg/L 2,4-D and 1 mg/L kinetin was the best for rice anther floating cultures, which showed 48.5% of callus induction and 6.8% of green plant regeneration. The callus induction was not affected by antioxidant mixture in liquid medium, and antioxidant mixture (250 mg/L) was effective for the reduction of brownish callus and improvement of plant regeneration Antioxidant mixture showed better effectiveness when it was supplemented to both media for callus induction and plant regeneration.

A suitable system for plant regeneration has been established for perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). In order to investigate the effects of genetic variations of perennial ryegrass in tissue culture response, calli were induced from mature seeds of five cultivars, 'Topgun', 'Accent', 'Renenge GLX', 'Tetrellite', 'Bison' and plant regeneration frequency was compared. Significant differences were observed among the cultivars in both callus induction and plant regeneration. Genotype 'Accent' consistently performed best in the callus formation and plant regeneration. These results can be used useful for molecular breeding of perennial ryegrass through genetic transformation.

The effects of explant sources, plant growth regulators on callus induction and plantlet differentiation from leaf blade, petiole, and meristem tissue of Pelalgonium citrosa were investigated under illumination or in dark condition Leaf blade explants cultured on Murashige and Skoog's medium containing 2,4-D and kinetin did not form callus or organ. But those cultured on medium with NAA and BA produced callcus and shoots. Dark condition was more effective than light condition to callus induction and showed that some of shoot were differentiated directly from leaf blade explane. Callus proliferated vigorously on meristem tissue after 7 days of culture, and multiple shoots were obtained Sum callus on medium with 0.5 mg/L NAA and BA. Roots formed readily from about 80% of the shoots cultured on medium with 1.0 mg/L NAA. Regenerated plantlets regenerated had phenotypically normal leaves and roots.

In order to optimize tissue culture conditions for genetic transformation of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.), the effects of culture medium supplements on tissue culture responses were investigated with mature seeds of a cultivar, 'Roughrider', as explant tissues. The optimal concentration of 2,4-D for the induction of embryogenic callus from mature seeds was 3 mg/L. Plant regeneration frequency was 36.3% when embryogenic calli were cultured on the regeneration medium supplemented with 1mg/L 2,4-D and 3mg/L BA. Addition of 1 g/L casein hydrolysate and 300 mg/L L-proline improved frequencies of embryogenic callus induction and plant regeneration up to 57.3 and 60.7%, respectively. Supplementation of the media with 10 mga $\textrm{AgNO}_3$ and 40 mg/L cysteine enhanced frequencies of callus induction and plant regeneration. Efficient regeneration system established in this study will be useful for molecular breeding of orchardgrass through genetic transformation.

The purpose of this study was carried out to investigate the effects of plant growth regulators on in vitro propagation of Liliem cernum Komarov. Small bulblets were poliferated from callus explants after 2 weeks and leaf, root and bulb were formed after 4 weeks culture. Leaf differentiation was promoted vigorously by the combination of TDZ 0.1 mg/L and NAA 0.01 mg/L(87.5%). The rate of root differentiation was the greatest at BA 0.2 mg/L alone(81.8%). The rate of callus formation was the high in medium containing TDZ. The number of bulblets and leaves formed in bulb scales was the greatest at TDZ 0.1 mg/L(5.7). Also, the longest length of total length, leaf and root length were in Zeatin 1.0 mg/L + NAA 0.1 mg/L(10.5 cm). However the longest bulblet was in TDZ 0.1 mg/L(1.4 cm).
