The present work was conducted to examine the effect of tobacco smoke solution, and its components such as nicotine and catechol treated separately on the root tip cells of Allium cepa L The mitotic abnormalities in root tip cells treated with those three components were increased linearly, while the mitotic index was decreased following concentrations of the components. Chromosomal abnormalities showed 29.7%, 15.8% and 13.0% in the treatment of tobacco smoke solution, nicotine, and catechol, respectively. The abonormalities were included polyploid, c-mitosis, stickness at metaphase, laggard, bridge formation at anaphase or telophase, and micronucleus, abnormal nucleus at interphase, after the treatment of the components for 24 hours. hours.

Pecatate lyase(Pel)는 펙틴과 펙틴산을 분해하며, 기주식물의 감염에 관여한다. Erwinia rhapontici에 있어서 기주와 병원균이 병원성과의 상호관계를 구명하기 위하여 pectate lyase(Pel) 활성에 미치는 식물체 추출물과 세포벽의 효과를 검토하였다. 본 균은 glycerol이 포함된 minimal salts(MSG) 배지와 식물체 추출물이 첨가된 MSP 배지에서는 Pel 활성이 검출되지 않았다. 그러나 배추, 상추 잎, 감자 괴경, 셀러리 잎자루, 양파 인경, 당근 뿌리의 세포벽이 첨가된 MSP 배지에서는 Pel의 활성이 검출되었다. Pel을 유도하는 식물 인자는 불용성이고, 열처리에 불안전하였다.

This study was carried out to isolate of antagonistic bacterium to Allium cepa L. pathogens. A total of 250 strains were isolated from A. cepa L. roots. The isolates were screened for antagonism to A. cepa L. pathogens and the isolated strain No. YJ-4 was selected among these bacteria. It was identified as Bacillus ehimensis based on morphological and physiological characteristics according to the Bergey's mannual of systematic bacteriology, Sherlock system of Microbial ID Int and 165 rDNA sequences methods. Bacillus ehimensis YJ-4 showed broad spectrum of antibacterial and antifungal activities against plant pathogens as Alternaria porri, Botrytis cinerea, Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora Fusarium of oxysporium, penicillium sp., Pseudomonas sp., Rhizoctonia solani, Sclerotium cepivotum, Septoria sp., Stemphylium botryosum. Speially B. ehimensis YJ-4 showed high antifungal activity on growth against F. oxysporium, the causal agent of onion Fusarium wilt.
