The Quaternary palynoflora from Cheongsu core, drilled on the western part of the Jeju Island, consists mainly of deciduous broad-leaved angiosperms and herbs. Dominant taxa are Pinaceae, Alnus, Castanea/Castanopsis, Ulmus/Zelkova, Chenopodiaceae and Compositae. Based on palynofloral composition, two palynostratigraphic zones are recognized. Zone I is characterized by a predominance of Alnus and Chenopodiaceae, and by the abundance of herbs. Zone II is dominated by conifers and deciduous broad-leaved angiosperms, including Abies, Taxodiaceae-Cupressaceae-Taxaceae, Ulmus/Zelkova and Gramineae. The Cheongsu palynoflora can be correlated with Alnipollenites(Alnus)-Chenopodipollis(Chenopodiaceae)-Compositae Assemblage Zone of the East China Sea and is assigned to the Pleistocene in age. Ecology of main taxa and comparison with the present vegetation of Korea suggest a cool temperate climate and a low relief in the Jeju Island during the deposition of the Cheongsu core sediments.

We collected leaves of Pinus koraiensis and Thuja koraiensis and roots of Bletilla striata from various sites in Korea. The leaf and root samples were surface-sterilized and endophytic fungi were isolated. Fungal isolates were identified based on their morphological characteristics and a phylogenetic analysis of internal transcribed spacer regions, large subunit regions, and the ${\beta}$-tubulin gene. Consequently, we identified five species of endophytic fungi, namely Colletotrichum simmondsii, Fusarium sterilihyphosum, Diatrypella pulvinata, Ochroconis globalis, and Sphaeria chrysosperma. These species have not been previously reported in Korea and we report them here with descriptions and illustrations.

Methanol extracts from 207 samples of 118 plant species in 44 families were tested for their fungicidal activities against six phytopathogenic fungi. Extracts of Thuja orientalis leaf, Cinnamomum loureirii leaf, Lindera erythrocarpa barks and leaf, Pinus koraiensis wood, Hovenia dulcis wood, Koelreuteria paniculata barks, Styrax japonica wood, Camelia japonica leaf and Cleyera japonica leaf showed very strong fungicidal activity against more than two phytopathogenic fungi at a concentration of 2000 ppm. As a naturally occurring fungicide, these plants could be useful as new fungicidal products against various plant diseases induced by plant pathogens.

As a basic study to find bioactive principles for the hypolipidemic effect from natural sources, various biological influences of MeOH extracts of Thuja accidentalis L. and Juniperus chinensis var. horizontalis Nakai on rats were examined. The concentrates obtained from the organic layer and aqueous layer fractions of each species were orally administered to rats and then their effect on the body weight, organ weight, serum lipids profile, and blood glucose concentration were examined. Among the samples tested, the organic layer of Juniperus chinensis var. horizontalis exhibited the possibility of the hypolipidemic effects. The corresponding layer was chromatographed to give three fractions and reexamined their effects on rats. The results demonstrated that the fraction corresponding for the R$_{f}$ 0.4~0.7 which was the mixture of many minor components showed the effect of lowering the blood-lipid bevel effectively without any side effects. Besides, communic acid, identified from and isolated as a major component of the species exhibited the possibe hypolipidemic effects.s.

Methanol extracts from 79 domestic plant species in 41 families and the crude oil of one Japanese plant species were tested for their larvicidal activities against Thecodiplosis japonensis Uchida et Inouye, using filter paperimpregnated and insect-dipping methods. In a test with 10 mgtpaper, strong larvicidal activity (>90% mortality) was obtained from the extracts of roots from three domestic plants belonging to Ranunculaceae (Aconitum pseudo- leave var. eretum, A. carmichaeli and Clematis florida) and the crude oil of sawdust from a Japanese plant, Thujopsis dolabrata var. hondai (Cupressaceae). However, only the crude oil from the Thujopsis sawdust revealed strong larvicidal activity when tested with 5,000 ppm by insect-dipping method. It is concluded that the Thujopsis sawdust-derived materials could be useful as a new control agent against T. japonensis.

Reduction effect of the spread of odorant and fine dust through windbreak trees can be predicted through numerical analysis. However, there is a disadvantage that a large space and destructive experiments must be carried out each time to calculate the aerodynamic coefficient of the tree. In order to overcome these shortcomings, In this study, we aimed to estimate the aerodynamic coefficient (C₀, C₁, C₂) by using image processing. Thuja occidentalis, which can be used as windbreak were used as the material. The leaf area index was estimated from the leaf area ratio using image processing with leaf weight, and the optical porosity was calculated through image processing of photos taken from the side while removing the leaves step-by-step. Correlation analysis was conducted with the aerodynamic coefficient of Thuja occidentalis calculated from the wind tunnel test and leaf area index and optical porosity calculated from the image analysis. The aerodynamic coefficient showed positive and negative correlations with the leaf area index and optical porosity, respectively. The results showed that the possibility of estimating the aerodynamic coefficient using image processing.

Windbreak forests, which have a windproof effect against strong winds, are known to be effective in reducing the spread of odors and dust emitted from livestock farms. The effect of reducing the spread of odors and dust can be estimated through numerical models such as computational fluid dynamics, which require aerodynamic coefficients of the windbreaks for accurate prediction of their performance. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the aerodynamic coefficients, Co, C₁, C₂, and α, of two windbreaks, Thuja occidentalis and a mesh net, through wind tunnel experiments. The aerodynamic coefficients were derived by the relation between the incoming wind speed and the pressure loss due to the windbreaks which was measured by differential pressure sensors. In order to estimate the change in the aerodynamic coefficient concerning various leaf density, the experiments were conducted repeatedly by removing the leaves gradually in various stages. The results showed that the power law regression model more suitable for coefficient evaluation compared to the Darcy-Forchheimer model.

본 연구는 대구광역시 남구 대명동 앞산공원 일대 관속식물을 연구하기 위해 수행되었다. 2018년 4월 13일부터 2019년 9월 17일까지 총 38회에 걸쳐 조사를 수행하였고, 확인한 관속식물은 109과 338속 523종 65변종 10품종 5아종 5교잡종 3재배품종을 포함하여 총 611분류군을 확인하였다. 이 중 산림청 국립수목원 지정 희귀식물은 28분류군(멸종위기종(CR) 왕벚나무(식재), 위기종(EN) 깽깽이풀 등 4분류군, 취약종(VU) 멱쇠채 등 8분류군, 약관심종(LC) 측백나무 등 11분류군 및 자료부족종(DD) 김의털아재비 등 4분류군), 국립수목원 지정 특산식물은 좀비비추, 노랑갈퀴, 산앵도나무 등 12분류군, 식물구계학적 특정식물은 67분류군(V등급 깽깽이풀과 왕벚나무 2분류군, IV등근 비술나무 등 4분류군, III등급 음양고비 등 16분류군, II등급 큰참나물 등 3분류군, I등급 거미고사리 등 42분류군), 귀화식물은 오리새 등 42분류군을 확인하였다. 도시화지수 및 귀화율은 각각 13.08%, 6.89%로 나타났으며 이는 우리나라 평균 귀화율보다 다소 낮은 수치이다. 선행연구와의 목록 비교 결과 210분류군을 추가적으로 확인하였다. 이는 약 30년간 연구대상지의 선행연구가 이루어지지 않았다는 점과 그간 식물의 오동정, 다양한 식물의 유입 및 사람들의 왕래가 잦아짐에 따른 귀화식물의 유입 등 다양한 요인으로 판단된다. 아울러 1,000만명 이상이 이용하는 앞산공원 일대 주요 희귀식물의 서식처를 보호할 수 있는 방안이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

최근 지구온난화로 인한 기후변화로 인해 지리적 분포가 한정적인 한반도 구과식물들은 점점 서식지 내 생육에 위협을 받고 있다. 이러한 구과식물의 지속이용가능한 보전을 위해서는 각 종별 형질 특성 및 분포, 생육정보 등의 기초정보 구축이 필요할 것이다. 구과식물(Pinidae, Conifers)은 전 세계적으로 나자식물(Gymnosperms)의 3/5정도인 630여분류군이 분포하는 것으로 알려져 있다(Farjon, 2008). 은행나무나 소철나무류 등 다른 나자식물과 비교하여 여러 복잡한 구조로 이루어진 구과(웅성, 자성 구과)를 형성하고, 잎은 대부분 바늘형으로 단순하며, 상록성인 특징 등으로 구분된다. 우리나라에 분포 및 식재되고 있는 나자식물 중 은행나무와 소철나무를 제외한 모든 나자식물이 구과식물에 속한다. 구과식물이 전 세계적으로 넓은 분포역을 갖지만, 종별로는 제한적인 분포를 갖는 것들이 많이 나타난다. 우리나라에 자생하는 구과식물 대부분도 동북아시아에만 분포하는 종들이 대다수이다. 한반도 구과식물은 총 5과 12속 23종 5변종 총 28분류군으로 확인되었다. 소나무과는 5속 12분류군으로 구상나무와 분비나무의 형태적 중복형질이 확인되었으며, 측백나무과는 3속 9분류군으로 눈향나무를 변종에서 종 수준으로 적용하였고, 어청도에서 해변노간주의 분포를 확인하였다. 개비자나무과는 1속 3분류군으로 수형에 따라 큰개비자나무, 눈개비자나무, 개비자나무로 구분하였다. 주목과는 비자나무속을 포함하여 2속 3분류군으로 설악눈주목에 대한 세부적인 분류학적 재검토가 필요할 것으로 판단한다. 나한송과는 1속 1분류군으로 신안군 가거도에서 나한송의 자생지를 확인하였다. 구상나무와 분비나무의 형태적 구분형질이 모호함에 따라 집단별 유전정보 분석을 통한 계통지리학적 연구를 수행하였다. 분석을 통해 구상나무는 빙하기에 북부지역의 조상종이 남하하여 분화되고, 후빙기에 중부지역까지 분포확장이 이루어진 것으로 판단된다.
