The preliminary study for providing the relationship of the factors which are climate and the pteridophyta was carried out. Dormancy form and leaf phenology of the 321 taxa belonging to 27 families were analyzed. This survey shows life-form spectrum of Korean ferns. The results obtained from this study were as follows: Deciduous (d), Evergreen (e) and Summer-deciduous (sd) were calculated as 37.4%, 59.2%, 1.9%, respectively and the Evergreen (e) has the highest value compared to the other leaf phenologies. It observed from the life-form spectra that Hemicryptophytes (H) was the most common dormancy form at 42.1%. Geophytes (G), Epiphytes (E) and Chamaephytes (Ch) were calculated at 25.5%, 15.9%, and 11.8%, respectively. There will be a discussion about geographical distribution of Korean ferns and possibility of their distribution range.

Effects of elevated $CO_2$ on leaf phenology of Quercus acutissima were examined using open-top chambers, which had ambient and elevated $CO_2$ concentrations (ambient ${\times}1.4$, ambient ${\times}1.8$). To analyze the effect of chamber, non-treatment block was established near outside of the chambers. In 2013, budburst, leaf unfolding, coloring, and shedding were surveyed, and spring phenology was surveyed in 2014. Thermal sum (base temperature $+5^{\circ}C$) of each phenological event occurred was recorded. In addition, bud samples were collected and analyzed for carbohydrate contents in March 2014. Elevated $CO_2$ concentration advanced budburst and leaf unfolding, and delayed shedding in 2013. However, in 2014, the temperature of the spring season was high, and there was no significant effect of elevated $CO_2$ concentration on spring phenology. Carbohydrates content, such as starch, total non-structural carbohydrate and total soluble sugar, were significantly increased in response to elevated $CO_2$ concentration. It has been proposed that elevated $CO_2$ concentration could extend the growing season of temperate species with increased possibility of frost damage due to early bud opening and leaf unfolding. However, our analysis showed that the increased carbohydrate concentration in bud under elevated $CO_2$ would reduce the possibility of early spring frost damage by acting as cryoprotectant.

Dendropanax morbifera Lev. leaves were collected during different seasons to analyze the chemical components. In proximate composition the leaves collected in spring had the highest moisture content and in winter had the lowest. Lipid, ash and fiber contents gradually increased from spring to winter and in winter had the highest. Protein content decreased until summer and then it increased. All of free sugars detected have gradually increased during the growing season. Unsaturated fatty acids content was higher than that of the saturated fatty acids and the major saturated and unsaturated fatty acids were arachidic acid and cis-13,16-docosadienoic acid. respectively. Fifteen free amino acids detected with arginine content being the highest regardless of season and amino acid content gradually decreased during the seasons. The highest content of mineral elements was potassium in leaves collected in spring, with calcium was the highest in leaves picked in other seasons. Vitamin C content was gradually decreased over the growing season and soluble tannin content increased notably.

This study was conducted to confirm phenological response of main deciduous woody species in Korea according to elevated temperature. Based on seeds collected from the same place, 39 woody species were cultivated in field (control) and in greenhouse (treatment) that was maintained above base temperature ($4.8^{\circ}C$). And then, we observed phenotype change of leaves focused on phenological response and explained relation with their current distribution area. As a result, initiation period of leaves unfolding was 1st~3rd, May in control. It was 13, December~7, January in treatment. Period of leaves yellowing was 11~26, October in control. It was 30, October~13, November in treatment. Consequently, initiation period of leaves unfolding was faster by 119~140 days and period of leaves yellowing was slower by 3~32 days since elevated temperature. Period of leaves growth increased in treatment by 148 days than control. Quercus mongolica and Quercus serrata that cultivated in treatment was changed as evergreen trees which have grown up continuely during one year. Also, initiation period of leaves unfolding of Sorbus alnifolia in treatment was faster than in control. However, difference of the period between control and treatment was smallest. Because period of yellowing leaves was moved ahead. Phenological response of leaves according to elevated temperature had no relation of type of their current distribution area. This is the result of acclimation due to elevated temperature during the winter and suggests that the phenotype of leaves of 39 deciduous woody species is more sensitive to the current growth condition than to the past growth condition.

낙동강 삼각주에 있는 Phragmites communis 초지에서 광차단과 흡수, 생산구조의 계절적 변화, 생산성 현존량을 1982, 1983 그리고 1993년에 각각 조사했다. 황충화된 수피를 통과하는 빛은 S자형으로 감소한다. 한 식물의 누층적 앞면적은, 그 시기의 수피의 잎면적 생장과 같다. 잎 면적이 log식에 따라 자랄 때, 잎면적의 수직적 누층은 일반적인 역동식에 의해 계산된다. 잎면적의 최대생장률에서의 광차단식은 식(1)에 의해 생산구조는 윗부분은 광합성계에 의해, 아래부분은 비광합성계에 의해 차지되어진다. 그러므로, 광차 단의 패턴은 S자형에서 지수함수적 패턴으로 변하게 된다. P.communis의 지상부 현존량은 $3,3660g/m^2$이상이었고, 순 생산성은 $142g/m^2$이었다. 갈초지대의 년중 순 생산은 각각 4.10,4.25,$4.47kg/m^2$/year 이었고, 촤대면적 지수는 각각 4.10.3,11.0,10.4이엇다. 이 결과는 일만초지보다 매우 높은 값이었다.

아열대성 식물 4종 (문주란, Crinum asiaticum var. japonicum; 박달목서, Osmanthus insularis; 죽절초, Chloranthus glaber; 파초일엽, Asplenium antiquum)을 대상으로 자연 환경요인의 변화에 의한 항산화 효소 (superoxide dismutase, peroxidase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase)의 활성과 isoenzyme 패턴의 변화를 전기영동으로 조사하였다. 그 결과, peroxidase의 활성과 isoenzyme 패턴이 식물종이나 환경조건에 따라 가장 다양하게 나타났다. Peroxidase는 4종 모두에서 여름철보다 겨울철에 활성이 높았고 문주란, 박달목서, 파초일엽에서는 겨울철에 특이적으로 발현되는 isoenzyme들도 관찰할 수 있었다. Catalase는 문주란, 박달목서, 파초일엽에서 검출되었다. 문주란 잎에서는 겨울철에 비해 여름철에 다소 높은 활성을 보였으며, 박달목서와 파초일엽에서는 겨울철에 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 그리고 문주란과 박달목서에서는 겨울철에 새벽이나 밤보다 낮시간에 높은 활성을 보였는데 파초일엽에서는 낮시간의 catalase 활성이 낮았다. Superoxide dismutase는 문주란, 박달목서, 파초일엽에서 검출되었으며, 특히 박달목서에서는 겨울철에 높은 활성을 보였다. Ascorbate peroxidase는 문주란과 파초일엽에서 관찰되었으나 계절적으로 큰 차이가 없었으며, 겨울철에는 isoenzyme 패턴의 일주기적 변화가 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과, 종별로는 문주란, 파초일엽에서 4종의 항산화효소가 모두 검출되었고, 박달목서에서는 ascorbate peroxidase가, 죽절초에서는 peroxidase를 제외한 모든 항산화 효소가 검출되지 않았다. 식물종에 따라 또는 환경요인의 변화에 따라 항산화효소의 활성 또는 isoenzyme 패턴의 차이를 보이고 있지만 항산화효소의 계절적 그리고 일주기적 변화가 관찰되어, 본 연구에서 조사된 4종의 아열대성 식물이 자연환경 조건 하에서도 산화적 스트레스에 처하고 있는 것으로 보인다.

The surfgrass Phyllospadix japonicus is a dominant seagrass species playing critical ecological roles on the eastern coast of Korea. However, few studies have been conducted on the ecological characteristics of this species, generally due to the turbulent water conditions in its habitat. In this study, to examine the growth dynamics of P. japonicus, we investigated monthly changes in morphological characteristics, density, biomass, and leaf productivity as well as changes in the underwater irradiance, water temperature, and water column nutrient concentrations of its habitat from August 2017 to July 2018. Underwater irradiance and water temperature showed clear seasonal changes increasing in spring and summer and decreasing in fall and winter. Nutrient availability fluctuated substantially, but did not display any distinct seasonal trend. Morphological characteristics, shoot density, biomass, and leaf productivities of P. japonicus exhibited significant seasonal variations, increasing in spring and decreasing in fall months. Spadix of P. japonicus occurred from March to August, with the maximum spadix percentage(15.8%) occurred in May 2018. The average leaf productivity of P. japonicus per shoot and area were 2.1 mg sht^-1 d^-1 and 7.5 g m^-2 d^-1, respectively. The optimum water temperature for the growth of P. japonicus in this study was between 13-14℃. The productivity of P. japonicus was not correlated with underwater irradiance, water temperature and nutrient concentrations. These results suggest that the study site provide sufficient amount of underwater irradiance, suitable water temperature range and nutrients for the growth of P. japonicus.

Effects of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilization on seasonal changes of nutrient content in tree components, and retranslocation N and P in foliage and twig were determined in adjacent 41-year-old plantations of Pinus rigida Miller and Larix kaempferi Gordon on a similar soil in Yangpyeong, Gyeonggi Province. In general, foliage N and P concentrations of L kaempferi were significantly higher than current and 1-year-old foliages of P. rigida. N and P concentrations were higher in foliage than in twigs for both tree species. However, there were no significant differences in foliage and twig N and P concentrations with ages. Significant seasonal differences in foliage and twig N and P concentrations were observed for both tree species because of nutrient retranslocation. Foliage nutrient concentrations were highest in the mid-growing season and lowest in autumn, whereas twig nutrient concnetrations have gradually increased since July. These seasonal trends indicated nutrient retranslocation from foliage into twigs before foliage senescence. However, there were no significant changes in foliage and twig nutrient retranslocation, and no consistent patterns in foliage and twig nutrient retranslocation following N and P fertilizer additions. No significant changes in nutrient retranslocation between different foliage and twig ages were observed following fertilization.
