This study was conducted to determine the optimal conditions of growth medium, temperature, and light quality for efficient propagation of Lygodium japonicum spores. The rate of spore germination and prothalium development was high in Knop and 1/8MS and 1/4MS media, which had low mineral content; in particular, the germination rate exceeded 74%, and the germinated spores developed into heart-shaped prothallia. However, in Knop‘s medium with the lowest mineral content, a rapid prothallium senescence was observed; in 1/4MS medium, prothallium development was delayed. Germination rate increased with the increase in temperature and reached its maximum, 86.7%, at 30℃; however, at this temperature, the prothallia were thinner and abnormal development of rhizoids was observed compared to normally developed prothallia and rhizoids at 25℃. Therefore, the results suggested that the optimal temperature for L. japonicum spore germination was 25℃. The rate of germination was also measured under different light conditions, and the highest rate of 90.6% was observed under LED red light compared to fluorescent (77.2%) or LED blue (5.4%) lights. The germinated spores developed into heart-shaped prothallia under LED red light; however, 15 days after seeding, prothallium development decreased and the became elongated. In contrast, a normal and continuous development of heart-shaped prothallia was observed under fluorescent light.

The growth, reproduction, gametophyte(G)/tetrasporophyte(T) ratio, and diseases of Chondrus ocellatus populations were examined at 3 sites (Samcheok, Youngduk, Pohang) of East coast and at 2 sites (Hakampo, Manripo) of West coast in between July and August, 2013. Average plant lengths were 6.10~9.69 cm and it was minimum at Manripo and maximum at Pohang population. In general, average plant length and weight of C. ocellatus were greater on East coast than West coast populations. The proportion of vegetative plant was between 26.7~66.7 %, and G/T ratio of total plants including vegetative plants after testing resorcinol method was 3:2 on the East coast where is gametophyte dominant area. However, G/T ratio was 1:1 at Hakampo and 1:2.3 at Manripo representing tetrasporophyte dominance. In the present study, Korean C. ocellatus have various diseases (white colour and green colour), an endophytic alga(Ulvella sp.), and many epiphytic macroalgae and diatoms. Healthy C. ocellatus plants were about 20~40 % in summer population and most of plants had disease. Chondrus ocellatus had a filamentous green alga, endophytic Ulvella sp. which was not identified. The endophyte is easily observed in C. crispus growing in Europe and Canada and it is recognised as a pathogen destroying population and reducing yield of C. crispus. Thus more interest and research on the endophytic algae and disease of C. ocellatus are required.

Strain Kan-23 was extracted from nematophagous fungi, which were isolated from the soil sample of oriental melon field. The strain exhibited the slow-growing characteristic forming conidia after prolonged incubation for 30 days. Morphological features of strain Kan-23 were observed under scanning electron microscope (SEM). It possesses erect conidiophores which contain $2{\sim}3$ side branches, with each branch producing $5{\sim}10$ conidia. The size of conidiophores were between $160{\sim}450\;{\mu}m$. Conidia were ellipsoidal with three septa[septum] in each conidium. Strain Kan-23 captured nematodes by means of giant constricting rings, which were observed in the glucose peptone agar medium. ITS region of rDNA sequence was analyzed. On the basis of the high sequence similarity of ITS region (99%), the Kan-23 strain was closely related to Drechslerella brochopaga (U51950). This is the first report on Drechslerella brochopaga as a nematophagous fungus in Korea.

본 연구에서는, 전기적 충격이 없고 넓은 면적을 동시에 처리할 수 있는 형태의 유전체 장벽 방전(DBD: Dielectric Barrier Discharge)을 이용한 대기압 저온 플라즈마 장치를 제작하고 이를 이용하여 빵 곰팡이(Neurospora crassa) 살균에 대한 기본 분석을 하였다. 실험에 사용한 저온 대기압 면방전 플라즈마의 파워는 사인파 교류전압을 인가하여, 방전전압은 1.4~2.3 kV, 방전전류는 20~30 mA의 값을 가지며, 전압과 전류의 위상차는 약 80도의 기울기 차이가 난다. 이때의 출력은 약 4 W를 가지며, 공랭식 쿨러를 이용하여 유전체의 열을 배출하였다. 시료대의 온도 측정결과 방전과 동시에 쿨러를 작동할 경우 최대 10분에서 37도를 넘지 않았다. 장치에서 발생하는 플라즈마에 의한 O3의 양은 플라즈마 발생부로부터 10 mm 이내에서 약 25~30 ppm 이 측정되었으며, NO나 NO2 는 거의 검지되지 않았다. 증류수(Deionized water)속에 담긴 빵 곰팡이(Neurospora crassa) 포자를 면방전 플라즈마 발생장치로 처리하였을 때, 포자의 발아율은 처리시간 및 출력파워가 증가함에 따라 급격히 감소하였으나 VM (Vogel's Minimal) 배양액에 넣고 플라즈마 처리를 한 경우에는, 증류수의 결과와 달리 살균효과가 미비함을 보였다. MTT 측정법 또한 같은 경향성을 보였으며, 이를 통해 포자를 둘러싸고 있는 환경이 플라즈마의 살균효과에 영향을 미치는 것으로 보인다. 본 실험을 통해, 유전체 장벽을 이용한 면방전 플라즈마 발생장치가 플라즈마 제트(jet)와 달리 직접적인 플라즈마 접촉 없이도 미생물 살균이 가능하다는 것을 보았으며, 처리대상의 생체용액과 같은 주변 환경에 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 면방전 플라즈마 장치로부터 발생하는 O3과 같은 활성종들이 빵 곰팡이의 비활성화에도 역할을 할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The population of actinomycetes in paddy soils, with hay compost and inorganic fertilizer had been applied respectively was investigated. Actinomycetes were isolated by using selective medium and the population densities of actinomycetes in paddy soil was examined. The population of actinomycetes were reached at a range from $2.1{\times}10^6$ to $7.4{\times}10^7$ per gram of the soil. The composition of actinomycetes flora changed considerably after hay compost applied. The significant positive correlations between the organic matter content in paddy soil and the actinomycetes populations were given at 1.38 to 2.69 level. According to the result of several morphological observation, similar strains isolated were classified into 21 groups. More detailed taxonomic characterization were carried out on the isolated strains. Therefore, 15 groups of Streptomyces and 6 groups of non-Streptomyces were classified into actinomycetes isolates, percentage of streptomyces and non-Streptomyces strains were 87.2% and 12.8% in the isolated 250 actinomycetes strains respectively. Streptomyces with sporophore of the spiral chain form accounted for 80% of all the Streptomyces isolates. Surface morphology of spores were determined with the electron microscope, three species have a spiny surface, and 13 strains have a smooth spore surface.

Coprinellus congregatus, known as an inky cap, is autolysed into ink soon after the maturation of the mushrooms. Electron microscopy was used to examine the ultrastructural changes associated with the autolysis as an initial step to understand the role of hydrolytic enzymes in this process. During the early stages of maturation of the mushrooms, most of cytoplasm of hymenial and subhymenial tissues seemed to be transported to the developing basidiospores. The depletion of cytoplasm within the tissues and the maturation of the basidiospores may initiate the degradation of the cell walls of the tissues. Both hymenial and subhymenial tissues seemed to degraded at the same time. This study suggested that the critical steps in the autolysis of mushrooms is not the degradation of the cytoplasm, but the degradation of the cell wall by hydrolytic enzymes such as chitinases.

Interspecific heterokaryons were obtained between auxotrophic mutants of Pleurotus ostreatus and Pleurotus florida by polyethylene $glycol-Ca^{++}$ induced fusion of somatic protoplasts. The fusion products produced colonies of dense growing mycelium after 10-14 days culture on hypertonic Mushroom Minimal Medium. When they were transferred to Mushroom Minimal Medium plates, the sectors showed normal vegetative morphology but the colonies of irregular shape varied in growth rate. All of the colonies produced fruit body of normal pilei. Some heterokaryon colonies bearing none or only a small amounts of basidiospores were isolated. Fusion products, generally, gave higher basidiocarp yields than the parents.
