Embryogenic callus cultures of Korean native Seosanjong of ginger(Zingiber of officinale Rosc.) were induced through stem explants taken from in vitro shoot-tip cultures. Among the four concentrations of 2,4-D tested in Murashige and Skoog medium, 0.5 and 1 mg/L of 2,4-D was most effective in inducing embryogenic callus. Leaf explants did not express any new morphogenetic response in all 2,4-D concentrations tested. Plantlets transferred to hormone-free MS medium were developed and successfully acclimatized under greenhouse.

Leaf tissue of Glycine max Merr. was fixed in para-formaldehyde-glutarldehyde and postfixed in osmium tetroxide or postassium permanganate for electron microscopy. The origin of cytolysome-like organelles of mesophyll cell was studied and changes of fine structure of the organelles according to treating solutions such as gibberellin (GA), kinethin (KI), 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid(2, 4-D) or 2, 4-D＋GA(1mg/l, respectively) were observed. The cylolysome-like organelles differentiate in endoplasmic reticulum and plasmalemma, and they drop into vacuoles being isolated from the formers. They seem to change into myelin-like structure and to be degenerated by autodigestion. Cytolysome-like organelles involved in cell walls and vacuoles showed activity of acid phosphatase. In the group of GA and KI treatment, cytolysome-like organelles were similar to that of the control group. But in the treatmental groups of 2,4-D and 2,4-D＋GA, myelin-like structures increased in size and autodigestion of this organelles were similar to that of the control group. But in the treatmental groups of 2,4-D and 2,4-D＋GA, myelin-like structures increased in size and autodigestion of this organelle seemed to be accelerated. In the treatmental group of 2,4-D＋GA, myelin-like structures shown high electron density were observed in cytoplasm and vacuoles together.

Iris koreana (Iridaceae) is an endangered plant native to Korea. In order to develop an in vitro propagation method, we investigated the effect of 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) and a-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) on callus induction in different I. koreana tissues. In addition, we also investigated the effect of 2,4-D and Benzyl aminopurine (BA) treatments on adventitious shoot induction in viable calli and the effect of indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) on root formation in viable shoots. We found that callus production was highest with 1.0 mg/L NAA (94.4% cultured rhizome explants), and adding low concentrations of 2,4-D to BA containing media significantly increased the frequency of shoot primordial formation. The best rooting results were obtained with 1.0 mg/L IBA, on which 98% of regenerated shoots developed roots and produced an average of 7.4 roots within 45 days. This in vitro propagation protocol will be useful for conservation, as well as for mass propagation.

The effect of heat or chemotherapeutant treatment on the mosaic virus infected garlic(Allium sativum L.) scales and that of chemotherapeutant added to the culture medium were summarized as following. The treatment of the virus infected garlic scales at $37\~57^{\circ}C$ for 35 days to one hour in water or in air shelved no effort of inactivating the virus. Although treatment of the garlic scales at $62\~72^{\circ}C$ for 90 to five minutes reduced the mosaic symptom on the leaves of the garlic plants grown after the heat treatment, it reduced the growth vigor of the plants so greatly that complete inactivation of the virus in garlics was not feasible. The mosaic symptom on the leaves of garlic plant was reduced when the infected garlic scales were grown after 24 hours soaking in $10\~50\;ppm$ Malachite Green, 2,4-Dichlorophnoxy Acetic Acid, or in $20\~100\;ppm$ Quinhydron. These chemotherapeutants, however, inhibited the growth of garlic plant at the high concentration. Garlic scales soaked in $10\~50\;ppm$ Naphthyl Acetic Acid showed the least mosaic symptom without its complete extiction on the garlic leaves. When incorporated into the modified Murashige-Skoog's medium, $0.5\~l.5\;ppm$ Naphthyl Acetic Acid could inactivate the mosaic virus in newy developed garlic plants showing no mosaic symptom on the leaves, no inclusion bodies and intact nuclei in the leaf tissue cells.

The pathway of embryos formed anther culture in herbaceous peony was influenced by addition of 2,4-D. MS medium with 2,4-Dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) alone did not arise direct embryogenesis, but was proliferate callus. Embryos through calli were produced on medium containing 0.2 mg/1 zeatin or without growth regulators. Direct embryogenesis was obtained from MS basal medium. However, after the anthers were cultured on medium with 0.1 mg/1 2,4-D, 3 g/1 AC, 30 g/1 sucrose, 2 g/1 gelrite for 40 days. Its efficiency (32.3 %) was markedly improved when anthers cultured on medium without 2,4-D. Embryo morphology was also affected by the 2,4-D used in medium. The induction of normal embryos with two cotyledons was higher in the embryos formed through direct embryogenesis than those formed callus. The embryos formed from calli were mainly showed abnormal embryo with one, three, four cotyledons or hors and bowling pin type.

Present experiment were attempted to examine in vitro multiplication throughbud culture of Cornus officinalis. Bud derived shoot formation was established successfully on Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with $0.5mg\;/\;{\ell}$ BAP(N-benzyl amino purine). The shoot proliferation increased on the Driver Kuniyuki Walnut medium containing $0.5mg\;/\;{\ell}$ NAA(Napthalene acetic acid) and $0.5mg\;/\;{\ell}$ BAP. Addition of 2,4-D(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) to the media produced excessive callus inducton. IAA(Indole-3-acetic acid) and IBA (Indole-3-bu-tyric acid) enhanced multple shooting, and NAA showed callus induction and multiple shooting. Shoot growth was enhanced supplemented with 3% sucrose, $2g\;/\;{\ell}$ activated charcoal, and 1 / 4MS in organic salts. However, root formation of proliferated shoots was low about 5%

Inactivation in soil absorption, translocation of 2, 4-D by plants vary depending upon soil environments and herbicide formulations. Experiment was conducted in a glasshouse using rectangular pots($1350cm^2$) to evaluate the growth responses of barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli) and Indian jointvetch (Aesehyrcomene indica) to two formulations of 2, 4-D. The formulations used were 40% 2, 4-D amin salt (2, 4-D/AS) and 19.7% complex of rice husk lignin and 2, 4-D (2, 4-D/LG) which were applied at 200g ai/ha. Soil environments included fertilizer levels, soil pH, organic matter contents, and soil textures, Each treatment was replicated three times. The herbicidal activity of 2.4-D increased and lasted with increased levels of fertilizer. The activity also increased and lasted with low soil pH and decreased content of organic matter. Generally 2, 4-D/LG showed higher and longer herbicidal activity than 2. 4-D/AS for both test plants under all conditions applied. However, the herbicidal activity was influenced by the formulations more than by soil textures. It was thought that 2, 4-D/AS was released in a short time and inactivated readily while 2, 4-D/LG was slowly released and gave an opportunity of absorption by plants for a long period.

The conditions for callus formation and plant regeneration were confirmed in Italian ryegrass (Lolium mulfiorum Lam.). Among SH (Schenk and Hildebrandt), MS (Murashige and Skoog) and N6 medium (Chu) MS medium was highest degree of efficiencies respectively in callus formation and plant regeneration. In this study, we determined volume of hormones and other compounds appended in media. For callus formation, only $5\;mg/\;{\ell}$ of 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) was appended in their media. For plant regeneration, we used MS medium containing $1.0\;mg/\;{\ell}$ of BA and $0.1\;mg/\;{\ell}$ of NAA.

The conditions for callus formation and plant regeneration were confirmed in four varieties of alfalfa(Medicago sativa L.). Among four varieties of alfalfa, "Vernal" expressed the highest rate for both of callus formation and plant regeneration. Otherwise, among SH(Schenk and Hildebrandt), MS(Murachige and Skoog) and N6 medium (Chu), SH medium was highest degree of efficiencies respectively in callus formatio and plant regeneration. In this study, we determined volume of hormones and other compounds appended in media. For callus formation, only $3mg/{\ell}$ of 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) was appended in their media. For plant regeneration, the three kinds of media were used; the medium appended $5mg/{\ell}$ of NAA (1-naphtalene acetic acid) and $2mg/{\ell}$ of kinetin (6-furfurylaminopurine), the medium appended $11mg/{\ell}$ of 2,4-D and $1mg/{\ell}$ of kinetin, and the medium appended $1.6g/{\ell}$ of ammonium sulfate and $5.75g/{\ell}$ of proline. We obtained alfalfa plants from callus by regeneration, about sixty five days later transfer calli to regeneration media.

Ralstonia eutrupha JMP134 is a well-known soil bacterium which can metabolite diverse aromatic compounds and xenobiotics, such as phenol, 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2, 4-D), and trichloroethylene (TCE), etc. Phenol is degraded through chromosomally encoded phenol degradation pathway. Phenol is first metabolized into catechol by a multicomponent phenol hydroxylase, which is further metabolized to TCA cycle intermediates via a meta-cleavage pathway. The nucleotide sequences of the genes for the phenol hydroxylase have previously been determined, and found to composed of eight genes phlKLMNOPRX in an operon structure. The phlR, whose gene product is a NtrC-like transcriptional activator, was found to be located at the internal region of the structural genes, which is not the case in most bacteria where the regulatory genes lie near the structural genes. In addition to this regulatory gene, we found other regulatory genes, the phlA and phlR2, downstream of the phlX. These genes were found to be overlapped and hence likely to be co-transcribed. The protein similarity analysis has revealed that the PhlA belongs to the GntR family, which are known to be negative regulators, whereas the PhlR2 shares high homology with the NtrC-type family of transcriptional activators like the PhlR. Disruption of the phlA by insertional mutation has led to the constitutive expression of the activity of phenol hydroxylase in JMP134, indicating that PhlA is a negative regulator. Possible regulatory mechanisms of phenol metabolism in R. eutropha JMP134 has been discussed.
