Effect of the microbial product made of Bacillus stearothermophilus DL-3, which was isolated from the soil and identified in this study, and rice bran on microorganisms in soil and growth of lettuce (Red skirt lettuce) and Chinese cabbage (Ga rack new No.1 Chinese cabbage) was investigated. Total numbers of microorganisms in the pot with untreated soil, treated with standard amount of microbial product and treated with double amounts of microbial product for growth of lettuce after 6 weeks were 2.78${\times}$10$^{7}$ CFU/g, 2.72${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g and 3.63${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g. Total numbers of microorganisms in the soil without treatment of microbial product and treated with standard amount of microbial product were 2.06${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g and 5.49${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g. Total numbers of microorganisms in the pot with untreated soil, treated with standard amount of microbial product and treated with double amounts of microbial product for growth of Chinse cabbage after 6 weeks were 1.43${\times}$10$^{7}$ CFU/g, 3.42${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g and 7.22${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g. Total numbers of microorganisms in the soil without treatment of microbial product and treated with standard amount of microbial product were 5.75${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g and 7.96${\times}$10$^{8}$ CFU/g. On basis of leaf length, leaf width, leaf number, wet weight and dry weight, the growth of lettuce and Chinese cabbage on the soil treated with microbial product was faster than that on the untreated soil. The treatment of microbial product in the soil resulted in the increase of useful microorganisms, which seemed to enhance the growth of lettuce and Chinese cabbage.

미생물의 서식처는 크게 나누어 대기, 토양, 수중생물체 등으로 생각할 수 있으나 대다수가 존재하는 토양중의 미생물과 수중의 미생물이 산업활동에서 배출되는 오염물이 미치는 영향관계를 살펴본다.

세계적으로 가장 널리 사용되는 제초제의 하나인 EPTC(s-ethyl-N,N'- dipropylthiocarbamate)에 대하여, 이를 분해하는 미생물의 토양 내에서의 직접 증식과 이를 함유한 토양(INOCULUM)의 토양내 EPTC 분해촉진을 위한 접종재(inoculant)로서의 효용성을 조사하였다. 한 차례의 EPTC(20mg EPTC/kg 토양)처리에 의해, 순수분리 없이 토양 내에서, EPTC-분해 미생물의 수가 $10^2$ 수준에서 $10^5$ 수준으로 약 $10^3$배 증식되었으며, EPTC 분해속도 또한, 토양으로부터 추출 가능한 EPTC가 초기 EPTC농도(20mg EPTC/kg 토양)의 20%까지 떨어지는데 걸리는 시간을 기준으로 할 때, EPTC처리 전의 20여 일에서 EPTC 처리 후에는 1일 이내로 빨라졌고, 이 토양의 EPTC 분해능력은 토양내의 EPTC 초기농도가 토양 kg당 2,000mg일 때까지도 크게 저해되지 않았다. 이 토양(INOCULUM)을 EPTC로 오염된 토양에 접종(0.05-5%, w/w)하였을 때, 오염된 토양 내에서의 EPTC 분해속도가 크게 향상되었다. 이 토양의 EPTC 분해능력은, 저온($10^{\circ}C$ 이하)의 습한 상태(수분함량 25%)에 보관하였을 때, 최소 6개월간 유지되었다. 본 연구는 EPTC-분해 미생물이 토양 내에서 쉽게 증식됨과, 이를 함유하는 토양(INOCULUM)이 토양내의 EPTC 분해 촉진을 위한 접종재로서 매우 효과적임을 확인하였고, 이 같은 방법은 다른 화합물과 그에 오염된 토양에도 적용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the microbial communities in animal carcass disposal soils to examine the possible threat of pathogens from leachate. DNA extraction was performed for the soils in three carcass disposal sites located in Gyeonggi-do, Korea, and then 16S rRNA pyrosequencing was conducted to identify the microbial communities. Results indicate that, according to phylum classification, Proteobacteria (100%) was identified in soil A, Actinobacteria (66.4%) > Proteobacteria (31.1%) > Bacteriodetes (2.1%) > Acidobacteria (0.3%) in soil B, and Actinobacteria (63.1%) > Proteobacteria (36.9%) in soil C. According to genus classification, Pseudomonas was dominant in soil A (98%), Arthrobacter in soil B (68%) and C (61%). There were no detections of pathogens such as Salmonella, Campylobacter and Clostridium perfringens. However, high concentration of Ralstonia pickettii causing bacteremia was observed. Although carcass disposal soils examined in this study were not highly contaminated with pathogens, further monitoring is still needed to examine the potential threat of pathogens in leachate derived from carcass disposal sites.

The mechanisms and metabolic products involved in the degradation of an organophosphate insecticide, diazinon, were studied in submerged paddy soil under the laboratory condition at $30^{\circ}C$. Diazinon abatement in non-sterilized soil was more rapid than indicating microbial participation in diazinon in soil. One-half of the original applications was lost in 2 days and less than 5% remained after 7 days. During the same period, dizinon applications increased tha microbial populations in accordance with the monooxygenase and esterase activities in soil. These results suggest that the microbiological factors develop in soil following diazinon application. The esterase and monooxygenase-catalyzing degradation products of diazinon were isolated and tentatively identified by mass spectrometryas 2-isopropyle-6-methyl-4-hydroxy pyrimidine, diazoxon, hydroxydiazinon, and sulfotep.

This study was carried out to develop the soil amendment practice by phosphate solubilizing bacteria application in greenhouse chrysanthemum cultivation area with high salt accumulation. The experimental site (ShinWoo Flower, GwangJu) has been cultivated chrysanthemum for 15 years and showed significant salt accumulation. The phosphate solubilizing bacteria, Pseudomonas putida (KSJ11), Acinetobacter calcoaceticus (KSJ3) and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus (WP20) formulated on vermiculite for easy use, were applicated. Each 250L of phosphate solubilizing bacteria was applied for $82m^2$ before planting. Acinetobacter calcoaceticus (KSJ3; WP20) increased the amount of soluble phosphorus in an effective level. Particularly, Acinetobacter calcoaceticus (WP20) increased not only the level of soluble phosphorus but also potassium, calcium and magnesium resulting in the increase of EC in the soil. The level of nematode was also decreased with the non-treated increased. As a result, we suggest that selected phosphate solubilizing bacteria (WP20) could be a useful practice for soil amendment in chrysanthemum plantation soil and provided an opportunity to reduce the use of the fertilizer during the cultivation period.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects on plant growth, soil chemical properties and microbial flora with microbial fertilizer to chinese cabbage cultivation. The plant growth was promoted and the yield increased by application of Tian Li Bao(TLB) microbial fertilizer as compared with the control. However, yield a littler decreased in case of the reduced amount of urea application as a top dressing and half of compost chicken manure as a basial fertilizer even if treated with TLB microbial fertilizer. Organic matter and total nitrogen contents decreased as compared to those in the control, and total nitrogen ranged in 0.76~1.44% in the treatments at harvesting time, and decreased with application of TLB microbial fertilizer compared to that of the control. The available phosphorus content in the field before experiment was 559ppm, but it was 755ppm and 653 in the control and treatments at harvesting time, respectively. Therefore, it was shown that phosphorus content in the treatment was lower than that of the control. On the other hand, total nitrogen, phosphorous and K ranged from 2.62 to 2.94%, from 1.48 to 1.55% and from 3.60 to 4.38% in plants after harvest, respectively. There were no significant differences among the treatments. For the soil microbial flora, the population of bacteria in the treatments decreased with application of microbial fertilizer as compared with the control over all cultivation periods. It was shown that the population of pseudomonas spp. was over 3 times higher than that of the control after harvesting. The population of actinomycetes didn't show difference among the treatments, but high density of fungi after harvesting were observed in the treatments.

A trenching method was used to determine the contribution of root respiration to soil respiration in Quercus acutissima forest in the vicinity of Gongju, Chungnam Province, Korea. $CO_2$ efflux in soil respiration plot($R_{control}$, $R_c$) and microblal respiration plot($R_{trenched}$, $R_t$) in Q. acutissima forest were measured from June 2011 to May 2012 by using IRGA soil respiration analyzer. Seasonal $CO_2$ efflux in $R_c$ and $R_t$ were higher in summer season than in winter season. In August, maximun $CO_2$ efflux in $R_c$ and $R_t$ was 1.345 and 0.897 g $CO_2\;m^{-2}\;hr^{-1}$, respectively. $CO_2$ efflux in $R_t$ was lower by 33.31% than that in $R_c$(P<0.05). In January, $CO_2$ efflux in $R_c$ and $R_t$ was 0.097 and 0.032g $CO_2\;m^{-2}\;hr^{-1}$, respectively. $CO_2$ efflux in $R_t$ was lower by 67.01% than that in $R_c$(P<0.01). The amount of annual $CO_2$ efflux from $R_c$ and $R_t$ was 4.320, 2.834kg $CO_2\;m^{-2}\;yr^{-1}$, respectively. There was a significant correlations between soil temperatures and soil respiration. Contribution of root respiration to total soil respiration in this Q. acutissima forest was 34.40%.
