In order to determine the effects of cytokinin and auxin on organ formation from tissue of garlic cloves, leaf blades and basal tissues contained meristem of garlic (Allium sativum L.) cloves harvested in 1979 (old cloves) and 1980 (new cloves) were explanted on a MS medium contained various levels of BA ($N^6$-benzyl amino purine), NAA (naphthalene acetic acid), and 2, 4-D (2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid). And some of the new cloves were explanted on a media contained BA and NAA after chilling treatment at $4^{\circ}C$ for 10, 20, 30 and 40 days. 1. In a culture of leaf blades of old cloves, shoots were differentiated on a medium supplemented with 2mg/l of BA and NAA. 2. Callus was grown as a quite straw-coloured globular mass on a medium contained 0.2 or 2mg/l 2.4-D. 3. As subcultures of globular calli, shoots and roots were differentiated on a medium contained 2mg/l BA and 0.5 or 1 mg/l NAA, whereas no shoots was shown on a conterol. 4. Shoots were differentiated in a culture of leaf blades of new cloves, but they were not in an old cloves in control, and better effect was shown on a medium contained 2mg/l BA and 1mg/l NAA. However shoots were no differentiated from leaf blades chilled at $4^{\circ}C$ for 30 or 40 days at the same condition. 5. Large numbers of adventitious shoots could be obtained from basal region of garlic cultured on a medium contained 1mg/l BA and 4mg/l NAA, or 2mg/l BA and 2mg/l NAA.

This study was carried out to establish improved techniques on organogenesis from callus culture of Gladiolus. Organogenesis from the callus was effective in the half strength of MS solid medium without 2,4-D at 15 $^{\circ}C$ under 24 hours of daylength. Formation of adventitious root was most effective in the liquid shaking culture, and adventitious shoot induction was effective in the liquid stationary culture. From these results, we could find optimal culture conditions for redifferentiation from callus, in addition, liquid shaking culture revealed as more useful when compared with that of solid culture method for the redifferentiation of callus in Gladiolus `Topaz'.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of culture media and environment on PLB proliferation by using PLBs produced from leaf segments excised from shoot of Phalanopsis flower stalk. The fresh weight of PLBs propagated was higher in MS medium than in NDM (New Dogashima medium) or VW, but the condition of PLB was better in NDM medium. Natural additives of Coconut water, potato and apple were absolutely required for the PLB propagation. PLB propagation was better in solid medium than in liquid medium including cotton as support. Optimal sucrose concentration for proliferation was 10 g/L. PLB proliferation was very effective condition 14.3 $\mu$mol.s$^{-1}$ m$^{-2}$ in PPFD and $25^{\circ}C$.

Leaflets of Allium sativum L. (garlic) and leaf scales Allium cepa L. (onion) were cultured on the Murashige and Skoog(MS) medium to study the effects of plant growth regulators, temperature and light on the formation of shoot and root. And also, the potentiality of shoot or root formation of tissues in accordance with the leaf age and the region was discussed. In the experiment with garlic, the formation of shoot and root was more effective on the medium containing $BA\;2mg/{\ell}$ and $NAA\;1mg/{\ell}$ and it occured on the basal region of outer leaflets. The shoot formation was more effective at $20^{\circ}C$ than $28^{\circ}C$ under 16-hour daylength, and it was more effective in darkness than light condition at $28^{\circ}C$. The results of shoot and root formation on the new cloves of garlic harvested in 1982 were similar to those the old cloves of garlic harvested in 1981. In the experiment with leaf seales of onion, when the tissues of dormant leaf scales of onions harvested in 1981 were explanted on the MS medium, a few shoots were formed on the medium containing $BA\;2mg/{\ell}$ and $NAA\;1mg/{\ell}$. In this case,there were no differences on the shoot formation among the age and region of leaflets. On the culture of leaf scales, the shoot was not formed on the leaf scales located at outer or middle region, but it was formed on the medium containing BA accompanied with NAA at inner scales. On the medium complemented with BA alone, the tissues were not differentiated, but on the medium complemented with NAA, the callus was formed from tissues and then the root was formed through the callus.

The characteristics of plantlets redifferentiated from calli of F1 hybrid between Panax ginseng and Panax quinquefolius were investigated. Growth of plantlets redifferentiated from F1 hybrid was superior to the plants redifferentiated from Korean ginseng. Stem color of plantlets redifferentiated from F1 hybrid was more purple than that from Korean ginseng and leaf color of the former was also greener than that of the latter. Chunpoong, Yunpoong and Seonweon which are belonged to Korean ginseng showed same PCR band(A), while American ginseng showed different PCR band (B) in Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) region. F1 hybrid exhibited both A and B PCR band which belonged to Korean ginseng and American ginseng, respectively. F1 hybrid calli and plantlets redifferentiated from F1 hybrid calli showed same PCR band with that of F1 hybrid plant in ITS region. Therefore it was confirmed that piantlets redifferentiated from F1 hybrid exhibited genetic stability in ITS region.

To establish high frequency shoot formation from two cultivars (Cheongyangjaerae and Myungan) of boxthorn (Lycium chinense Mill.), hypocotyl segments with cotyledons from seedlings were used as explants. High frequency adventitious shoot formation (more than 80%) were obtained from hypocotyl segments with cotyledon on MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/L zeatin, when precultured for 3 weeks under dark conditions followed by transfer to light conditions. But there was no shoot induction in the explants cultured without preculture under dark conditions. Roots were induced from the shoots when transferred to rooting medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/L IAA for 4 weeks. Regenerated plantlets were grown to normal mature plants in soil.

This experiment was carried out to determine the effect of mixture ratios of worm cast and soil on the growth orchardgrass seedlings, and estimate the adequate mixture ratio of worm cast for plant growth media. Mixture ratios of worm cast and soil were 100:0, 80:20, 60:40, 40:60, 20:80 and 0:100, respectively. The results were summarized as follows; 1. The value of dry weight of shoot(SW), dry weight of root(RW), number of tillers per plant(NT) and biological yield(BY) were the highest in the mixture with 60% of worm cast. Particularly, the dry weight distribution to root in 20%-60% mixture ratios of worm cast were higher than those grown in 80%-100% mixture ratios of worm cast, it may due to the enhancement of root growth by adquate worm cast mix. 2. The orchardgrass seedlings in the 60% mixture ratio of worm cast grown in favourable soil conditions compared to those grown in other mixtrure ratios of worm cast and soil without worm cast. The soil analysis data showed that 60% mixture ratio of worm cast contained pH 6.16, 13.84% of organic matter, 0.84% of total nitrogen, 1,413.9ppm of available phosphorus and 16.7me／100g of cation exchange capacity, respectively. 3. Biological yield(BY) indicated positive significant correlation with the dry weights of shoot(SW) and root(RW). And, the dry weight of shoot(SW) had positive correlation with the number of tiller per plant(NT) and dry weight of tiller(WT).

This study was conducted to investigate whether seedling growth be affected by immature kernels from different stages after flowering in rye, triticale, wheat and oats cultivars, for two years in Suwon. Kernels reached a near-maximum test weight at 35 days after flowering in Paldanghomil and Dooroohomil (Rye), and 30 days in Sinkihomil (Triticale), Geurumil (Wheat), and Megwiri (Oats). Test weight of immature kernels from different days after flowering were not significantly correlated with germination percentage, but highly positively correlated with their seedling height, fresh and dry weight. However, seedling height is not different among seedlings from kernels harvested at 20, 25 and 30 days (maturing time) after flowering of Sinkihomil and Megwiri, and between 25 and 30 days (maturing time) of Geurumil. Also between seedlings from 25 day and 30 day-kernel after flowering are little difference of fresh and dry weight of Sinkihomil and Megwiri. In Suwon, located at the middle part of Korea, it was suggested that Paldanghomi1 and Dooroohomil could be harvested at 35 days (June 19, and June 24, respectively) after flowering, and Sinkihomil, Geurumil, and Megwiri, at 25days (June 24, June 14 and July 4, respectively) after flowering for seed of for2:ge production.

The effects of earthworm casts as a plant growth media on the growth of orchardgrass seedlings and the changes of physico-chemical properties in worm casts mixture soils were investigated during the growth period of 1998. Worm casts were mixtured with vermiculite, perlite and peat moss, and mixture ratios of worm casts with commercial recommended soil were 100:0(control), 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, and 0:100, respectively. The results were obtained as follows; 1. Plant length(PL) was increased in higher mixture ratios of worm casts and peat moss than those of other mixture ratios of commercial recommended soils. 2. Number of tillers(NT) were significantly increased in mixture ratios of worm casts and peat moss(50:50) and 100% of vermiculite. 3. Root length(RL) was significantly differences between mixture ratios at the worm casts, and the highest value was obtained at all mixture ratios of worm casts and perlite. 4. Dry weight of leaf(LW) was not significantly differences at mixture ratios of 50:50 in all treatments. Especially, between the mixture ratios of worm casts with peatmoss(25:75) and peat moss(75:25) were not significantly differences in dry weight of leaf(LW). The highest value of dry weight of leaf(LW) was obtained at mixture ratios of peat moss and worm casts. 5. Dry weight of tillers(SW) was not significantly differences at mixture ratios of 50:50 in all treatments, and peat moss(75:25) and vermiculite(75:25), respectively. 6. biological yield(BY) at all treatments were increased by yield components of dry weight of tillers(SW), dry weight of root(RW) and length of root(RL). 7. The biological yield of orchardgrass seedlings was greatly increased with mixture ratios of worm casts and peat moss over the 50%.
