Larvae of beet armyworm. Spodoptera exigua are extremely polyphagous. A total of 42 host p plants were identified in the field observations. Among them, vegetables were 13 species. upland crops 12 species, flowers species, and others including weeds 11 species. The damage by b beet armyworm was severe on Allium fistulosum in southern Chonnam. The percentage of hills d damaged was 86% in Jindo, Chonnam and 1.92% in Sesan. Chungnam. Nomuraea rileyi and nuclear polyhedrosis virus were identified on the larvae of Spodoptera exigua in Allium fistulosum fields and the percentage of parasitization was 4.3-9.7% and 3.2%, respectively. M Mortality of Spodoptera exigua larvae by Nomuraea rileyi in perilla was 13.4% in July 5, 28.9% in Aug. 7, and 18.5% in Sept. 10.

Methanol extracts of 9 kinds of native medicinal plants(Taraxacum platycarpum, leaf; Pinus densiflora, leaf; Artemisia prinseps, leaf; Allium tuberosum, leaf; Cassia obtussifolia, whole; Sophora angestifolia, root; Stemonae sessilifolia, root; Lonicera japonica stem, leaf, flower; and Clivia miniata) were investigated for insecticidal effect. Methanol extracts of Pinus densiflora leaves and Sophora angestifolia radix showed relatively good insecticidal activity against Culex pipiens pallens larvae. Strong larvicidal activity against the Musca domestica larvae was produced from methanol extracts of Taraxacum platycarpum leaves and Allium tuberosom leaves. while Stemonae radix showed moderate activity. All materials tested revealed little or weak insecticidal activity against M. domestica adults.

The effects of angiogenesis inhibitor from the extract libraries of Korean and Chinese medicinal plants were investigated using a protein microarray chip. Protein chip was constructed by immobilization of integrin ${\alpha}_5{\beta}_1$ on protein chip base plates and employed far screening active extracts that inhibit the integrin-fibronectin interaction from the extract libraries. The 100 extracts of medicinal plants were obtained from extract bank of National Institute of Crop Science, RDA. The 14 extracts among 100 extract libraries were shown efficient inhibition activity for the interaction between integrin-fibronectin. The medicinal plants of 14 extracts were Vitex negundo var. incisa (Lam.) C.B. Clarke, Epimedium koreanum Nakai, Cedrela sinensis A. Juss, Ipomea aquatica Forsk, Schisandra chinensis Baill, Pulsatilla koreana Nakai, Paeonia lactiflora Pall. var.hortensis Makino, Oenothera odorata, Allium chinense, Allium victorialis var. platyphyllum MAKINO, Polygonatum odoratum Druce var. pluriflorum Ohwi, Hosta lancifolia, Agrimonia pilosa L. var. japonica Nakai and Potentilla chinensis SER. The Paeonia lactiflora, Oenothera, and Agrimonia pilosa from these 14 extracts libraries were shown strong inhibition activity of integrin ${\alpha}_5{\beta}_1$.

Focusing on native plants that have high possibility of being introduced as rooftop material, this study was conducted to investigate extensive and easy-to-manage rooftop garden and to raise the utilization of native plants by verifying their growing response to artificial substrate soil depth and irrigation period. The study was conducted from March to September in 2002. Plants tested included Chrysanthemum zawadskii, Sedium middendorffianum, Thymus quinquecostatus, Allium senescens, and Dianthus superbus. Regarding soil depth, it was 5 cm and 10 cm. Irrigation period was non-irrigation, 1-week, 2-weeks, and 3- weeks, Its result is as follows; 1. In case of Sedum middendorffianum Maxim, mortality rate was 0% regardless of soil depth and irrigation period making it very suitable material for rooftop garden. 2. In case of Allium senescens L., mortality rate was 0% regardless of soil depth and irrigation period making it very suitable material for rooftop garden. Therefore, Provided that fertilizing is managed well, it is a plant that can be highly utilized.3. In case of Chrysanthemum zawadskii Herb. Subsp. (Nakai) Y. Lee Stat., the growth of top was lower in 10cm than in 5cm and it grew well in 10cm. When utilizing for rooftop garden, it would be desirable to keep minimum viable soil depth at over 10cm. If there is enough rainfall, soil and soil depth seem to have greater effect on growth than irrigation period does. 4. In case of Diauthus superbus L. var. longicalycinus (Maxim) Williams, rooting rate and growth were better in 10cm than in 5cm. Therefore, it is desirable to keep minimum soil depth at over 10cm. 5. In case of Thymus quinquecostatus Celak, the growth of top and flowering were better in 10cm than in 5cm. Therefore, it seems desirable to have minimum viable soil depth to be over 10cm. In conclusion, the most suitable species for rooftop garden are Sedium middendorffianum and Allium senescens in this experiment. However, Chrysanthemum zwadskii, Thymus quinquecostatus, and Dianthus chinensis also can be utilized greatly when irrigation is managed regularly in artificial mixed soil over 10cm.

Farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FPS) catalyzes the biosynthesis of farnesyl diphosphate, a precursor for many important terpenoid products. A cDNA encoding FPS was first isolated from Allium sativum (AsFPS) using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) PCR. The sequence of AsFPS contains an open reading frame encoding a protein of 341 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 39.61 kDa. Alignment of AsFPS deduced amino acid revealed high identities with other plants ranging from 79% to 85% and showed 2-high conserved aspartate-rich motifs known to be important for FPS activity. Furthermore, AsFPS expression was stronger in the green organs such as bulbils, scapes, leaves, stems, but weaker in bulbs and roots than on-green organs of A. sativum.

In 2007, a bulb rot of Allium victorialis var. platyphyllum Makino caused by Sclerotium rolfsii occurred sporadically in a herb farm at Gyeongsangnam-do, Korea. The symptom initiated with water-soaking lesion and progressed into bulb rot and wilt of a whole plant. Severely infected plants were blighted and killed eventually. White mycelial mats appeared on the lesion at early stage and a number of sclerotia were formed on the bulb. The sclerotia were spherical, $1{\sim}3 mm$ and white to brown. The optimum temperature for the growth and sclerotia formation was $30^{\circ}C$ on PDA. The hyphal width was measured $4-9{\mu}m$. The typical clamp connections were observed on PDA. Based on the symptom, mycological characteristics and pathogenicity to the host plant, this fungus was identified as Sclerotium rolfsii Saccardo. This is the first report on the bulb rot of A. victorialis var. platyphyllum caused by S. rolfsii in Korea.

Garlic(Allium sativum L.) is one of the oldest cultivated plants and has been used throughout the world as food supplement and folk medicine for thousands of years. In modem times a number of garlic derived products are introduced on the market as health food supplement in ever growing scale. In 1844 German chemist Wertheim investigated the garlic first time chemically and thereafter many kinds of organosulfur compounds were isolated and their biological activities were elucidated scientifically. The main biological activities are antibacterial, antifungal, antithrombotic, cholesterol-lowering, antineoplastic and hepatoprotective activities. Chemical works as well as therapeutic and preventive effects of garlic are reviewed.

Four arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal(AMF) inocula collected from three arable sites in Korea were used to determine plant growth, mycorrhizal root colonization rate and spore production in three different host plant species; Sorghum bicolor, Allium fistulosum, Tagetes patula. Growth of plant treated with AMF differed from those without AMF. Different AMF inocula showed significantly different root colonization rates and spore production of AMF on the wild plants, A. fistulosum and T. patula, but did not on the cultivated plant, S. bicolor. Results suggested that indigenous mycorrhizal fungal community would be important factors in mycorrhizal symbiosis, and play important roles in the plant succession.
