Effects of culture mediwn supplements and osmotic stress treatment on embryogenic callus induction and somatic embryogenesis were investigated in order to optimize tissue culture conditions of alfalfa(Medicago sativa L.). SH mediwn containing 5mgIL 2,4-D and 0.2mgIL kinetin was optimal for embryogenic callus induction from cotyledon tissue of alfalfa. Somatic embryos were formed when the embryogenic callus was cultured on SH mediwn supplemented with ImgIL 2,4-D and 2mgIL BA. Supplementation of 5mM L-proline and IgIL casein hydrolysate into the regeneration mediwn further increased plant regeneration frequency. Osmotic stress treatment of callus appeared to improve the frequency of somatic embryo formation, but the frequency of somatic embryo formation differed by the osmotic stress treatment using different osmotic stressors. The highest plant regeneration frequency of 30.7% was observed when embryogenic callus was treated with 0.7M sucrose for 18h. Efficient regeneration system established in this study will be useful for molecular breeding of alfalfa through genetic transformation.

A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of collected region(Bongpyeong in Gangwon, 690 m, Mt. Halla in Jeju, 1,085 m), pre-treatment (stratification, soaked in distilled water or $GA_3$) and shading (control, 50%, 80%) on seed emergence and seedlings growth of Ligularia fischeri. The result showed that seed emergence (%) of L. fischeri were 6.9~75.5% (Gangwon : 6.9~32.8%, Halla : 22.2~75.5%). Maximum seed emergence (%) of 32.8 (Gangwon) and 75.5 (Halla) were achieved for seeds were stratified, soaked in distilled water, and under non-shading for L. fischeri (Gangwon), whereas seeds were stratified, soaked in $GA_3$ 100 ppm, and under 80% shading for L. fischeri (Halla). In this study, the best seedling vigor index (SVI) of L. fischeri (Gangwon) and L. fischeri (Halla) were obtained when seeds were stratified, soaked in distilled water, and under 50% shading. The survival rate of potted seedlings for L. fischeri (Halla) were 100% of all shading conditions, but there were decreased by 77.8%, 61.1%, 55.6%, as an increasing shading rate (con, 50%, 80%) for L. fischeri (Gangwon). Therefore, good seedlings were obtained when seed (Mt. Halla) of L. fischeri were stratified, soaked in distilled water, and under 50% shading, and then seedlings were transferred in pot.

This study was carried out to improve the ability of embryo formation and the efficiency of plant regeneration from suspension cultured cells of seed derived calli of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.). The frequency of formation of round cell and cell colonies was highest at 50 days after suspension culture in $N_6$ medium supplemented with $4\;g/{\ell}$ casein hydrolysate (CH), $20\;g/{\ell}$ sucrose and $30\;g/{\ell}$ sorbitol. The highest frequency of plant regeneration and somatic embryo formation was obtained from suspension cultured cells of 60 days. Addition of CH ($4\;g/{\ell}$) in suspension culture medium gave the highest frequency of embryo formation (39.6%) and plant regeneration (73.0%).

Apical meristems tissue were cultured on LS medium with different zeatin and NAA concentrations to compare their potential to regenerate shoots, roots and bulblet formation. Shoot regeneration from apical meristem was effective on LS medium added with zeatin 0.1, 0.5, 1.0 mg/L alone treatment or zeatin 0.5 mg/L and NAA 1.0 mg/L combination treatment. A high frequency of root regeneration was obtained on LS medium supplemented with zeatin 0.5 mg/ and NAA 1.0 combination treatment. Linsmaier and Skoog(LS) medium with NAA 3.0 mg/L and zeatin 1.0 mg/L combination treatment gave the best results for normal bulblet formation#KW=Allium wakegi ; plant regeneration ; bulblet formation

Apical meristems of Wasabia japonica were cultured on Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with cytokinins alone or together with 1.0 mg/L IAA. Shoot initials could be induced from leaf primordia on apical meristems. Calli and roots were formed on the medium containing cytokinins and 1.0 mg/L IAA in combination after 30 days of culture, but there were no callus proliferation. Shoot organogenesis began after 60 days of culture and these small shoots elongated when transferred to a medium containing 1.0 mg/L BA or kinetin. Shoots were formed directly without callus induction from apical meristems all the explants on the medium containing cytokinins variously, and most of the shoots proliferated multiple shoots which could be divided to obtain plantlets. Shoot multiplication rate in response to cytokinins was best on the medium containing 1.0 mg/L BA or 2.0 mg/L zeatin. Divided plantlets rooted well on MS medium containing 0.01 mg/L IBA after 15~30 days of subculture and the rooted plantlets developed into whole plants with multiple shoots. After rooting, the regenerated plants were washed and transferred to the pots containing sterilized soil.

Guineagrass (Panicum maximum Jacq.) is an important warm-season forage grass as well as biomass crop. It has both sexual and asexual mode of reproduction (apomictic) depending on cultivar. We developed efficient plant regeneration system for an apomictic (cv. Natsukaze) and a non-apomictic (Noh-PL1) guineagrass by optimizing the level of L-proline in the callus induction and that of $AgNO_3$ in plant regeneration medium. Among the L-proline concentrations tested, the best callus induction was achieved by using 2g/L L-proline in both the genotypes. Immature embryos proved to be the best explant source for tissue culture of guineagrass. The highest frequency of shoot regeneration was obtained on MS plant regeneration medium supplemented with 2 mg/L $AgNO_3$. These results provide a foundation for efficient tissue culture and genetic improvement of guineagrass.

A reliable and effective tissue culture system was established for Perilla frutescens (perilla) using different cultivar, explant source, and growth regulator composition in medium. MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L BA and 0.1 mg/L NAA was maximum at shoot induction. Cotyledon explants formed more shoots than hypocotyl explants. The frequency of plant regeneration through organogenesis was higher (22.8%) than that (6.1%) of somatic embryogenesis. Five genotypes of perilla were screened for the feasibility of shoot regeneration, cotyledon explant of 'Manbaek' showed the highest shoot induction at a frequency of 27.3% among the tested cultivars.

This experiment was conducted to know the effects of mutagen treatments on callus induction, plant regeneration and their ploidy in the anther culture of wheat. The winter wheat cultivars, 'apos;and 'apos;Wonkwang'apos;, were treated at the mid or late-uninucreate stage under 4 different doses (100, 200, 500 and 1,000 rad.) of X-ray and 3 different levels(0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 mole) of Ethyl Methane Sulphonate. The anthers treated were set on the C$\_$17/medium for callus induction, and callus induced was transfered to 1/2 MS medium for plant regeneration. The mutagen treatments inhibited the callus induction but increased the plant regeneration in the callus which were induced from the anther set on the medium for the long time of 60 to 80 days. Also, the chromosome number to the regenerated plant varied largely by increasing of haploid plants(n=3x=21) and by occurring of aneuploidy having n=20 and n=22 of chromosome number.aried largely by increasing of haploid plants(n=3x=21) and by occurring of aneuploidy having n=20 and n=22 of chromosome number.

These experiments were attempted to introduce rolC gene in the Petunia hybrida cv. Titan white by Agrobacterium mediated. The maximum frequency of shoot regeneration was obtained by 60% on MS medium containing 1.0 mg/L BA, 0.1 mg/L NAA, 200 mg/L kanamycin, 500 mg/L carbenicillin, 30 g/L sucrose, and 8 g/L agar. Kanamycin-resistant calli were selected from petunia leaf discs by cocultivation with Agrobacterium suspension cultures on MS medium. The addition of AgNO$_3$ and KMnO$_4$ in the medium increased the shoot regeneration by 31.3% from leaf disc as compared with non-treated leaf disc. Among clones exhibiting kanamycin resistance, only 3 clones were confirmed by southern hybridization analysis.

In sweet potato cultivars 'Mokpo #29' and 'Sanchunza', shoots from extplants were formed 100% on the MS medium with 0.1 ㎎/L NAA and 2.0 ㎎/L BA after 30 days of culture and roots produced from the base of stem at frequencies of 66.7% ('Mokpo #29') and 69.2% ('Sanchunza'), respectively, The media with 0.5∼4.0 ㎎/L BA were produced the greatest frequency of multiple shoot and the most of shoots developed rapidly into normal plantlets with rooting within 60 days of culture. Whereas the cultivar 'Keumsi' failed to produce normal shoot multiplication on the medium with cytokinins alone because of callusing of adventitious shoots. When single shoots with 1 to 2 nodes were excised from the multiple shoot or shoots covered with callus devoid of root and transferred to MS medium with 4.0 ㎎/L BA or kinetin. Host divided shoots showed the callus induction at the stem base and it was enable to obtain regenerated plantlets with shoot and root normally.
