식물생산공장은 작물의 생육에 적합하도록 환경을 최적화시킬 수 있기 때문에 최단기간에 작물을 생산할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 또한 지상부나 지하부 환경을 적절히 조절하거나 인위적인 품질제어기술을 이용하여 기존의 상품보다 품질이 월등히 높은 작물을 생산할 수 있는 여건과 설비가 조성될 수 있다. 이러한 식물공장 생산방식은 부가가치가 높은 화훼류나 분화류에 많이 적용되고 있지만, 생산기간이 길고 난방 등의 에너지가 상대적으로 많이 소요된다. (중략)

포항공대 내에 자리한 벤처기업 제노마인은 지난해 '애기장대'라는 식물에서 계절에 따라 꽃피는 시기를 조절하는 새로운 유전자 자이켄티아를 세계 최초로 발견, 분리에 성공했다. 제노마인 대표인 남홍길 포항공대 교수는 '자이겐티아를 정상적인 식물체에 주입해 꽃피는 시기를 30% 앞당길 수 있는 연구결과가 나왔다"며 자이겐티아를 이용하면 "원하는 시기에 꽃이 피는 화훼류를 만들거나 일년중 특정시점에 수확이 가능한 농작물의 유전공학적 개발에 적용할 수 있다"고 말한다.

The cross was made in 2002 between Asiatic lily 'Orlando', a light orange colored cultivar, and 'Corrida', yellow and pink colored cultivar. Preliminarily selection was done as 'A04-72' in 2004. Multiplication and bulb formation, and characteristic tests were conducted from 2005 to 2006. The evaluation of this line was performed and named as 'Wongyo C1-84' in 2007 that was registered as 'Apricot King' to the registration office of Korea Seed & Variety Service. 'Apricot King' flowers at the end of June and grows average 121.6 cm. It flowers upward-facing, dark green throat and yellow orange (RHS 20A) with the size of flower 17.9 cm. Mean petal length and width is 12.8 cm and 3.7 cm, respectively. Leaves are 16.1 cm long and 2.1 cm wide. It shows light orange stigma and pollen. The weight and size of bulb is 64.2 g and 17.6 cm, respectively. For long-term storage, bulbs can be stored under -1 to $-2^{\circ}C$ for year-round forcing.

This study was conducted to find out the commercial in vitro propagation methods through protocom-like bodies (PLB) induced from shoot tip culture of Miltonia spp. Among several culture media for induction PLB from shoot tip in Miltonia spp., MS basal medium was better than Hyponex, Vacin & Went basal medium and other media supplemented with natural additives. PLB's proliferation and differentiation in Hyponex medium including $20g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ banana + $20g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ sucrose(pH 5.2) was better than in MS medium. It was tendency that solid media showed higher PLB fresh weight than liquid medium or other cotton bridge culture. The dark culture for 1~2 weeks and adding $10{\sim}20g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ sucrose on hyponex basal medium was the most effective to increase the PLBs growth and shoot number.

A light pink single freesia (Freesia hybrida Hort.) 'Bolero' was developed from a cross of breeding line ('Yellow Ballet' and 'Yellow Dream') and 'Sandra' followed by seedling and line selections at the National Institute of Horticultural and Herbal Science (NIHHS), Rural Development Administration (RDA) in 2007. Growth and flowering characteristic tests were conducted from 2003 to 2006. 'Bolero' has single type flower with light pink color (RHS, R55B). It has multiple florets, stable flower shape, upright leaves and stalks. The average cut flower yield of 'Bolero' observed in the greenhouse from 2005 to 2007 was 7.5 cuttings per plant. It has good production of cormlets and vigorous growth. 'Bolero' could be cultured under greenhouse conditions in Korea.

Acorus calamus is an indigenous hydrophyte used as phytoremediation and water purification as well as medicinal herb. Irradiation of gamma ray was performed to investigate the effect on radioresistance of A. calamus on in vitro. Various doses (20-500 Gy) of gamma rays were irradiated to in vitro plantlets. The effect of irradiation was studied on survival rate, shoot formation and growth rate. The survival and multiplication rate was remarkably decreased with the increase of radiation dose. The growth of plantlets was significantly increased in comparison to the control at low doses. The hermetic effect of radiation was appeared in A. calamus. It was significantly decreased or interrupted above 250 Gy. The mean 50% lethal dose ($LD_{50}$) was extremely high as 240 Gy. We conclude that A. calamus had remarkably high radioresistance compared with other plant species.

Cymbidium 'Purple Star' (Miake 'Pieta' ${\times}$ 'Allstar Mariane') was developed from a cross between hybrids at the National Institute of Horticultural & Herbal Science (NIHHS), Rural Development Administration (RDA) in 2008. A cross was made between purple colored flower C. Miake 'Pieta' as maternal line and dark pink colored flower, C. 'Allstar Mariane' as paternal line in 1995. The seed germination, cultivation, selection, and characteristic trials were conducted from 1996 to 2002. The line was named as Wongyo 'F1-21' and phenotype was characterized in 2007 as a new cultivar. The 'Purple Star' has dark purple basal color (RHS, GP186A) on both of sepal and petal with red lip (RHS, RP59A). 'Purple Star' has about 10.7 flowers per flower stalk and flower size of 7.6 cm. General appearance of petals and sepals is slightly incurved shape. The plant size is intermediate having erect peduncle. Blooming is started from the late of January (mid-winter) under optimal culture condition. Leaf attitude and twisting is erect and weak respectively. This hybrid has attractive floral arrangement, long flower stalk (78.4 cm) and vigorous growth. 'Purple Star' has a great potential for exporting to Chinese market.

Lilium longiflorum 'Charm' as a $F_1$ hybrid cultivar was released by crossing inbred line '$L_2$-14' and '$L_2$-21' which were obtained from 5 self crosses originated from 'Nellie White', 'Ace' and 'Hinomoto'. The growth and flowering characteristics were evaluated in a greenhouse maintained at a minimum of $13^{\circ}C$ at night during winter in 2006 and 2007. The flower of 'Charm' is white color and horizontal-facing. The flower number of a plant and its diameter is 7.4 and 16.5 cm with 24.5 ornamental(flowering) days. The plant height is 60.3 cm with 70.3 number of leaves. The stem diameter and internode length is 1.2 cm and 1.1 cm, respectively, meaning the plant is compact and sturdy. And the number of seed per a capsule is 251.1. The results of these evaluation, therefore, suggest that seedling Lilium longiflorum 'Charm' can be used as a pot plant due to its short stems, many number of flowers per plant, long ornamental period, strong growth habit with many leaves and thick stem diameter.

This study was conducted to find out the cause of discoloration after pressing yellow-colored flowers. Plant materials used were Lilium Asiatic Hybrids, Oncidium spp., Rosa hybrida, $Tulipa{\times}gesneriana$, Antirrhinum majus, Dianthus caryophyllus, Freesia hybrida, Zantedeschia elliottiana, Gerbera jamesonii, Helianthus annuus, and Ranunculus asiaticus. Thickness, ratio of length to width, and water content of petals did not considerably affect discoloration of pressed flowers. Expression of yellow color in petals was caused by carotenoids in Lilium Asiatic Hybrids, Oncidium spp., Rosa hybrida and $Tulipa{\times}gesneriana$, by flavonoids in Antirrhinum majus, Dianthus caryophyllus, Freesia hybrida and Zantedeschia elliottiana, and by coexistence of carotenoids and flavonoids in Gerbera jamesonii, Helianthus annuus and Ranunculus asiaticus. Carotenoids that expressed yellow color in petals affected significantly on discoloration in pressed flowers containing carotenoids alone or both carotenoids and flavonoids. However, discoloration was hardly ever found in yellow-colored species as affected by flavonoids. Dark treatment was effective for almost perfect preservation in color of pressed flowers, while light treatment resulted in severe discoloration.
