In 2018, severe diebacks have occurred on yuzu trees cultivated in Goheung, Jeonnam Province. On-farm surveys at 18 randomly selected orchards revealed the dieback incidence ranged from 7.5% to 100% with an average of 43.6%, and 56.6% of the affected yuzu trees were eventually killed. In order to find the reason for this sudden epidemic, we investigated the weather conditions that are exclusively distinct from previous years, hypothesizing that certain weather extremes might have caused the dieback epidemic on yuzu trees. Since different temperatures can cause freeze damage to plants depending on their dormancy stages, we investigated both periods when yuzu becomes hardy under deep dormancy (January-February) and when yuzu loses its cold hardiness (March-April). First, we found that daily minimum air temperatures below $-10^{\circ}C$ were recorded for 7 days in Goheung for January and February in 2018, while no occasions in 2017. In particular, there were two extreme temperature drops ($-12.6^{\circ}C$ and $-11.5^{\circ}C$) beyond the yuzu cold hardiness limit in 2018. In addition, another occasion of two sudden temperature drops to nearly $0^{\circ}C$ were occurred right after abnormally-warm-temperature-rises to $13^{\circ}C$ of daily minimum air temperatures in mid-March and early April. In conclusion, we estimated that the possible damages by several extreme freeze events during the winter of 2018 could be a major cause of severe diebacks and subsequently killed the severely affected yuzu trees.

The previous study showed that die-back of apple trees caused by soil-borne diseases was significantly high in the apple orchards in Chungbuk province. The correlation between dieback ratio and cultivation environment in apple orchards infected by soil-borne diseases was investigated in this study. The dieback ratio of five orchards diseased by violet root rot and five places infected by white root rot showed significantly positive correlation with Ca content and available $P_2O_5$ content in soil, respectively. Whereas, the dieback ratio of fourteen orchards diseased by Phytophthora root rot was not significant. Subgrouping of cultivation environment analysis showed that the slope degree of orchard and the number of fruit setting also affected the dieback ratio caused by violet root rot and Ca content in soil also affected the dieback ratio caused by white root rot. It showed that the slope degree, soil texture, Mg and Ca content affected the dieback ratio caused by Phytophthora root rot. These results can be applied to reduce die-back ratio by the modification cultivation environment for each soil-borne disease.

Recently, severe dieback of apple tree has occurred in the apple orchards of Chungbuk province. Dieback rate and its casual agents have been investigated on the Chungbuk province apple orchards in 2013-2015. Out of 29,265 apple trees in the 27 orchards throughout Chungbuk province, 4,000 apple trees (13.7%) showed dieback symptoms. The causes of dieback were Phytophthora rot (50.4%), violet root rot by Helicobasidium sp. (27.1%), rodents (10%), white root rot by Rosellinia sp. (6.3%), and freezing injury (6.3%). Compared to previous reports published in 1995 and 2006, Phytophthora rot was the most dominant disease, which is thought to be due to high temperature during growing season and the increase of lowland cultivation. Results of this study will be useful to establish of the management strategy of apple tree dieback that has been increased recently.

Naturalized plants are invaded through various routes and distributed throughout the nation. They are also invaded in the sand dune ecosystem and poses a threat ecological niche of indigenous sand dune plants. We studied the effects of salt stress on the plant growth to suggest the management plans of naturalized plants in the sand dune ecosystem. As a result of germination experiment according to the salt gradient, germination rate decreased as the higher concentration and tolerance range was up to 160 mM. As a result of seedling experiment according to salt gradient, mortality rate was up to 90% from 0 mM to 200 mM and 100% over 300 mM. The day of first death with different concentration was 18.5 days in 100 mM and 6 days in 800 mM since the experiment has started. In addition, the day of last death with different concentration was 29.5 days in 100 mM and 6 days in 800 mM. Therefore, two stages of management plans would be effective. The first one is to suppress the germination by salt spray over 170 mM before germination. The other one is to wither seedlings in a short period by salt spray over 600 mM.

The herbicide bialaphos is a potent inhibitor of glutamine synthetase in higher plants. A bialaphos resistance (bar) gene encoding for an acetyltransferase was isolated from genomic DNA of Pseudomonas syringae pv tabaci. The bar gene was ligated to the binary vector pBI121. Pistils of tobacco plane were heated with the bar gene containing plasmid DNA at various times after pollination. When the treatment was applied at 30 and 40 h after pollination, a number of transgenic plants were obtained. Premary transformation (T$_{0}$ generation) and their progenies (T$_1$T$_2$) were resistant to both bialaphos and kanamycin at a dosage lathal to untransformed control plants. Stable integration of bar gene into chromosomal DNA was proven by Southern blot analysis of genomic DNA isolated from T$_1$progenies. These results show that the bialaphos resistant plane could be obtained by treatment to pistils with the exgenous bar gene through the fertilization cycle of tobacco.o.

최근 호두 기내 소비량은 급증하나 대부분 실생묘로 조림되어 결실까지 장기간 소요되며, 무성 번식률이 낮아 보급확대가 어렵다. 본 연구는 호두나무 관행 묘목 번식법 개선이 가능한 우량 국산묘 대량증식 기술 개발로 최적 배양조건을 구명하고자 수행하였디. 호두나무 등 목본류는 식물 조직배양 기본배지에서 산화방지제를 첨가하여 사용하는 경우, 배양체에서 생기는 페놀 화합물(Phenolic compound)의 작용을 억제하여 배양 식물체의 갈변(Browning) 또는 흑변(Blackening) 현상을 감소시키는 효과가 있다. 페놀 추출물은 배지로 빠져나와 갈변시키며 생존율을 저하시키는 원인이 되고 이를 제거하는 산화방지제는 배양 식물체의 생산효율을 높이는 효과를 나타내는 강력한 항산화제(Antioxidant) 역할을 한다. 호두나무의 액아를 배양하게 되면 조직 및 배지의 갈변화가 심하게 일어나는데, 휴면 정도가 깊을 수록 정단에서 추출되는 페놀성 물질의 함량이 증가하며, 식물 조직 내 페놀성 물질의 함량 정도와 배양의 고사율과는 상관관계가 있다. 이러한 식물 배양체에서 생기는 페놀 화합물에 의해 발생되는 배양상의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 계대배양을 자주해 주거나 활성탄(Activated charcoal), Ascorbic Acid 등의 첨가물을 배지에 추가하는 방법이 있다. 이에 따라 호두 '신령' 품종의 액아배양의 페놀집적을 제거하기 위해 배지 내에 산화방지제 첨가물질 등을 농도별로 처리하였다. 호두나무 액아 배양 후 8주차 산화화방지제 첨가물질의 농도별 처리 효과는 생존율은 85.3%를 보였으며, 신초 형성율 76.4%, 신초수 1.9개/주, 신초장 27mm/주의 양호한 결과를 나타냈으며, 페놀 제거 및 유식물체 고사 억제 효과를 보였다.

Research was initiated to find out acid drainage neutralizing techniques for ecological vegetative growth on the acid drainage slope. Four different acid drainage neutralizing techniques [no treatment, limestone layer treatment, phosphate treatment, and limestone layer + phosphate treatment] were treated on the acid drainage slope. There was a significant difference observed in treated acid neutralizing techniques for acidity, surface coverage rate, death rate and plant root status. Treated acid neutralizing techniques were effective for neutralizing acidity and vegetative growth in order of [first: limestone layer + phosphate treatment, second: phosphate treatment, third: limestone layer treatment and fourth: no treatment]. The limestone layer and the phosphate treatments were effective for neutralizing acidity and vegetative growth, respectively. However, the phosphate treatment was more effective compared to the limestone layer treatment on the acid drainage slope. We figured out that the phosphate treatment is more effective for neutralizing acidity and vegetative growth because of coating effect of sulfides.
