This study was conducted to investigate the effect of sulfur containing pesticides, captan, edifenphos, EPN, acephate, asulam, bentazone on arylsulfatase activity in soil incubated at $30^{\circ}C$ for 42 days with or without urea addition. The results obtained were as follows: When pesticides, captan, edifenphos, EPN, acephate, asulam, bentazone were treated in urea added and unadded soil, the activity of arylsulfatase was the highest at 7 days of incubation. The arylsulfatase activity in urea added soil was kept higher as compared with that of the urea unadded soil. When pesticides, captan, edifenphos, acephate, asulam, bentazone, were treated in urea added and unadded soil, the activity of arylsulfatase was inhibited at the entire experimental period. By the treatment of EPN in urea added and unadded soil, the arylsulfatase activity was decreased at the early stage of treatment, but increased after 28 days of incubation.

With 32 fungicides, it was examined the inhibitory effects on the mycelial growth of Alternaria dauci KACC42997 causing Alternaria leaf blight of carrot. Showing the results of the agar dilution method, the fungicides belonging to C2, C5, G1, E2, and E3 group were excellent in inhibiting mycelial growth. Protective fungicides belonging to M group, except for iminoctadine tris-albesilate, and pyraclostrobin belonging to C3 group were effective in inhibiting spore germination of pathogens. The fungicides included into C2 group inhibiting succinate dehydrogenase activity and the G1 group inhibiting demethylase activity showed the excellent inhibitory effect on mycelial growth but the inhibitory effect of spore germination was very low. However, fluazinam belonging to C5 group was excellent in inhibiting spore germination as well as mycelial growth. Especially, when 100 ㎍/ml of fluxapyroxad belonging to the C2 group was treated, 47.1% of spore formation was inhibited on the medium. In comparison of the resistance factors of 3 fungicide groups, as G, C, and E group, in populations of A. dauci isolates collected from Gumi, Pyeongchang, and Jeju, resistance factor in the population of Jeju was the lowest. However, two isolates resistant to fludioxonil belonging to E2 group were found in the isolate group of Pyeongchang, and both showed cross-resistance to iprodione and procymidone.

In order to develop a pretreatment solution for cut rose, the effects of surfactants [Tween 20, Triton X-100, polyoxyethylene 4 lauryl ether (PLE)], germicides (aluminum sulfate, $AgNO_3$, dichloroisocyanuric acid, STS, benzalkonium chloride, 8-hydroxyquinoline sulfate), sucrose, and hormones (ABA and kinetin) on the longevity and quality of 'Red Sandra' were investigated in environment-controlled room. Although 20 and 50 ppm Tween 20, and 500 ppm PLE appeared, in appearance, to be effective in retarding blueing and wilting, respectively, they didn't show statistical differences as compared to distilled water control. Among germicides, $AgNO_3$ was the most effective in delaying petal blueing, petal withering, and reduction of fresh weight, regardless of its concentration, while, in the case of STS, only 1mM treatment was effective in delaying of petal withering. Only 5% sucrose treatment delayed petal blueing, petal withering, and bent neck, but showed no significant difference as compared to 500 ppm aluminum sulfate. Finally, single or combination treatments of ABA and cytokinin were found to rather stimulate the senescence of cut rose.

The process for the preparation of fungicide propineb starting with 1,2-diaminopropane was studied on the optimal condition base. Side reaction producing toxic material 1,2-propylenethiourea could be ieduced effectively by using phase transfer catalyst and the product was noticed to show a great improvement in yield and purity. Especially when the phase transfer catalyst tetraphenylphosphonium bromide is used, the yield and the purity of the product were found to be best with up to 95 and 96% respectively and the byproduct content was shown within 1.7%. Also, the contents of wetting agent AES and dispersing agent APS were optimally chosen $3.1\sim4.0%$ and $4.0%\sim5.0%$ respectively for the improvement of suspensibility and wettability of Propineb WP.

To develop the efficient screening methods for antifungal compound active to Chinese cabbage clubroot caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, the control efficacy of three fungicides fluazinam, ethaboxam, and cyazofamid on the disease was tested under several conditions such as soil types, cultivars of Chinese cabbage, growth stages of the host, and inoculum concentrations. The in vivo antifungal activities of the fungicides on clubroot of two Chinese cabbage cultivars were hardly different. At 7- and 14-day-old seedlings, the fungicides were more effective to control of clubroot than at 21-day-old seedlings. In a commercial horticulture media soil (CNS), disease severity of untreated controls was higher and control activity of the fungicides was less than in a mixture of CNS and upland soil (1:1, v/v). Disease development of the seedlings inoculated with P. brassicae at $1.8{\times}10^7$ spores/pot to $1.1{\times}10^9$ spores/pot was almost same, but control efficacy of the fungicides was negatively correlated with inoculum dosages. To effectively select in vivo antifungal compound on Chinese cabbage clubroot, 14-day-old seedlings need to be inoculated with P. brassicae by drenching the spore suspension to give $1{\times}10^8$ spores/pot 1 day after chemical treatment. To develop clubroot, the inoculated plants are incubated in a growth chamber at $20^{\circ}C$ for 2 days, and then cultivated in a greenhouse ($20{\pm}5^{\circ}$) for four weeks.

New 2-benzoylimino-1,3-oxathile derivatives 3 were synthesized and tested their fungicidal activities for the development of new agrochemical fungicide. Reaction of ${\gamma}-chloro-{\beta}-keto$ anilide derivative 5 with potassium thiocyanate followed by the treatment of acid catalyst gave cyclyzed 2-imino-1,3-oxathiole 3. New compound 3 reacted with benzoyl· chlorides to afford the corresponding 2-benzoylimino-1,3-oxathiole derivatives 7. Antifungal screening (in vivo) of the synthesized compounds against typical plant diseases, which include rice blast, rice sheath blight, cucumber gray mold, tomato late blight, wheat leaf rust, and barley powdery mildew, was carried out. No significant fungicidal activities were shown of the synthesized compounds at 100 mg/l.

A series of new 2-N-benzyl-5-phenoxy-3-isothiazolone derivatives were synthesized and their in vitro antifungal activities against resistant Phytophthora capsici (RPC) & sensitive Phytophthora capsici (SPC) with metalaxyl fungicide have been measured. In addition, influence of substituted 5-phenoxy group on the -antifungal activities ($pI_{50}$) and the reactivity of substrates were investigated. From the results, reactivity of none substituted substrate showed tendency displaying orbital-controlled reaction. The substituents on the 5-phenoxy ring showed selective fungicidal activity between SPC and RPC. Especially, the 4-fluoro substituent, 6 in the RPC and 4-nitro substituent, 3 in SPC exhibited strongly selective antifungal activity among them. The activities on the SPC would depend largely on the optimal molar refractivity ($MR_{(opt.)}=7.37cm^3/mol$) whereas the activities on the RPC would depend largely on the optimal highest occupied molecular orbital energy ($HOMO_{(opt.)}=-9.2137e.v.$) and weak electron donating (${\sigma}<0$) group. And Free-Wilson analyses revealed that the antifungal activity against RPC depends on the methoxy and bromo-substituent and all of the substituents contribute to antifungal activities against SPC.

In order to elucidate the effect of spreader-stickers on the rainfastness of dithianon and chlorothalonil wettable powders, and to estimate the possibility of suggesting good new formulations, the fungicide residues on the leaf surface of hot pepper was assessed and compared after the drop-wise applications of fungicide suspensions containing spreader-sticker on leaf surface followed by artificial raining. Three commercial spreader-stickers, which were Cover, Reitron and Silwet, not only made the rainfastness of dithianon wettable powders worse on hot pepper leaf, but increasing their concentrations also accelerated it further. On the other hand, to chlorothalonil wettable powder, Reitron showed the 3-fold improvement of rainfastness. But, for the rest, there was no improvement as well. The effect of N-octylpyrrolidone (NOP) on rainfastness of both fungicides was excellent. Soybean oil formulations containing leaf-penetrable nonionic surfactant, which was either polyoxyethylene monotridecyl ether or polyoxyethylene monolauryl ether, improved dithianon rainfastness, but the ones containing conventional emulsifiers did not.

In vivo antifungal activity of 44 fungicides consisting of 3 clubroot fungicides, 7 Oomycetes fungicides, 7 botriticides, 7 blasticides, 9 sterol biosynthesis inhibitors, and 11 broad spectrum fungicides were investigated against Plamodiophora brassicae, the causal agent of clubroot disease in Chinese cabbage. When fluazinam, flusulfamide and cyazofamid, commercial fungicide to control clubroot of Chinese cabbage in Korea, were applied to infested soil, club formations by P. brassicae were strongly inhibited at pot (35 $cm^2$) per 0.63 mg. Ethaboxam and cymoxanil, Oomycetes fungicides, completely controlled Chinese cabbage clubroot at 5 mg/pot, but cymoxanil represented sever phytotoxicity. Besides, dichlofluanid and procymidone of botriticides effectively controlled the development of Chinese cabbage clubroot at 2.5 mg/pot. Chlorothalonil, quintozene and trichlamide, broad spectrum fungicides, showed disease-control efficacy of 85%, 100% and 100% at 2.5 mg/pot, respectively. Most of sterol biosynthesis inhibitors displayed the strong antifungal activity against P. brassicae on cabbage seedlings and plant growth -retarding activity. From these results, 7 fungicides were selected and further tested in vivo antifungal activity against P. brassicae in glasshouse. Among them, ethaboxam showed the most antifungal activity against P. brassicae on cabbage seedlings, followed by fenarimol, procymidone, nuarimol and chlorothalonil.
