토마토 잎에 집적된 triflumizole 잔류량 동태에 미치는 온도 영향과 Cladosporium fulvum에 대한 triflumizole의 살균효과를 구명하였다. 8주간 키운 토마토 식물체에 triflumizole을 분무 살포한 후 식물생장용 항온실에서 키우면서 4가지 온도 조건을 처리하였다. 주기적으로 토마토 잎을 채취하여 HPLC 방법을 이용하여 triflumizole의 잔류량을 조사하였다. Triflumizole 잔류량의 경시적 동태는 약제살포후 적산온도를 독립변수로 사용하는 지수적 감소 몸형으로 나타낼수 있었으며, 이는 triflumizole의 잔류성이 온도 영향을 크게 받는다는 것을 뜻한다. 경기도 농촌진흥원에 위치한 토마토 비닐하우스에서 수행한 실험에서 얻은 자료를 이용하여 평가한 결과 이 모형의 타당성이 인정되었다. Triflumizole의 약효에 대한 in vitro 실험 결과, 이 살균제는 C. fulvum의 균사 생장과 포자형성을 뚜렷이 억제하였으며, 잎곰팡이병 방제를 위해서는 토마토 잎에 집적된 triflumizole 잔류량이 최소한 10 ppm 이상이 되어야 할 것으로 추측된다. 본 연구에서 연구된 지수적 감소 모형은 토마토 잎에 집적된 triflumizole 잔류량을 추정하는데 활용될 수 있으며, 실용적인 측면에서 볼 때, 토마토 잎곰팡이병을 효과적으로 방제하는데 필요한 triflumizole의 최소 잔류량을 식물체에 유지하기 위하여 triflumizole을 살포해야 할 시기를 결정하는데 활용될 수 있다.

It was attempted in this experiment to observe the effect of ginseng saponin on the growth and recovery rate of Saccharomyces rouxii which was shocked by heat-stress. The growth of S. rouxii was found most active when the saponin concentration in the malt extract broth was $10^{-3}%$ And the growth rate of S. rouxii grown on medium containing $10^{-3}%$ ginseng saponin was faster thanh that of the yeast grown on medium without saponin from the early log phase of the yeast. The growth recovery rate of S. rouxii which was heat-shockied by $80^{\circ}C$ - 30 minites was accelerated in the medium added ginseng saponin.

Propolis is a lipophilic, natural product prepared by mixing the exudates collected from various plants by honeybees with beeswax for the purpose of using to seal hive walls and to strengthen the borders of combs. Because of its versatile bioactivities, propolis has been attracting many investigators'interest. But the pharmacological studies on propolis has, to date, been exclusively performed for an alcohol extract, there is few information of water extract. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the various effects of water extract of Chinese propolis. The water extract of propolis and its fractions of organic solvents showed strong antioxidative activities, especially ether and ethylacetate fractions, and reduced the lipid peroxidation of rat liver in viro. Additionally the ether fraction of propolis (10 mg/ml) inhibited the activity of hyaluronidase by 50%. In vivo, the water extract of propolis considerably decreased s-GOT, s-GPT and s-LDH activities which represent for the hepatotoxicity induced by $CCl_4$ in rats, and prolonged the MST (Medium revival tinge) and ILS (Increasing in MST over control) by 18% in mice which inoculated with sarcoma 180 ascites cells. These results suggest that the water extract of propolis has various bioactivities as well as the alcohol extract.

A total of 55 Colletotrichum isolates from strawberry plants with anthracnose symptoms(crown rot) were inhibited in mycelial growth on potato-dextrose agar(PDA) amended with fungicides in variable degrees depending on the chemicals used, especially showing no growth on PDA with 1 mg/m/tricyclazole. However, in the detached leaf test by treating chemicals before or after inoculation of Colletotrichum sp., tricyclazole was little effective in controlling symptom development; instead azoxystrobin, which had low in vitro inhibition of mycelial growth, inhibited strongly the symptom development. Some chemicals were tested for the control of strawberry crown rot in greenhouse using three methods, sprays soil drenching and plant dipping. No or little control effect were made by chemical spray and soil drenching, but plant dipping in chemical solution, especially azoxystrobin: reduced crown rot development by about 50% in the greenhouse suggesting that the azoxystrobin treatment may be an effective control method of the crown rot of strawberry. No differences in the control efficacy were noted according to the dipping time and chemical concentration of azoxystrobin not less than 10 min and 250 mg/m/, respectively.
