Ultrastructures of the large and elongated cells (idioblasts) in the haustorium of a parasitic angiosperm, Cuscuta australis R. Brown growing on the host plant, Trifolium repens L. were investigated by the electron microscopy. The idioblasts were characterized by the presence of a large nucleus, small vacuoles, and dense cytoplasm including a number of various cell organelles such as ribosome, rough endoplasmic reticulum(r-ER), mitochondrion, dictyosome, proplastid, multilamellar structure(MLS), microfilament bundle(MFB), and cytosegresome. Therefore, it is suggested that the idioblasts are metabolical1y very active. Particularly, MLS, MFB, and cytosegresome observed in this study did not appear in the haustorial cells of the other parasitic angiosperms. MLS was transformed into vacuole and also incorporated with cell wall. MFB composed of microfilaments, about each 7.5 nm in diameter, was observed in nucleus and also cytoplasm. Some types of MFB were distinguished on the basis of arrangement of microfilaments. A part of cytoplasm sequestered by stacked cisternae of smooth ER(s-ER), cytosegresome, was altered into a vacuole which was formed by digestion of the sequestered cytoplasm and of cisternae of s-ER. Cell organelles such as MLS, MFB, and cytosegresome were discussed in relation to the metabolic control of the idioblasts.

Anatomical characteristics of genus Platycarya, Juglans and Pterocarya of Juglandaceae occurring in Korea were described and coded based on the IAWA list. Juglandaceae are ring-porous or semi-ring-porous. Vessels have simple perforation plates and helical thickenings in some genus. Axial parenchyma cells were abundant, most apotracheal but rarely paratracheal and rays with 1-5 seriate. Platycarya is ring-porous wood with 2-3 rows of vessels in the pore zone. Helical thickenings were found only in small vessel of latewood. Axial parenchyma were commonly diffuse-in-aggregates or vasicentric. Rays 3-5 seriate. belonging to Kribs' heterogeneous II or III type with frequent occurrence of rhomboidal crystals. Juglans are semi ring-porous with few vessels in $mm^2$ and pores are commonly solitary. Axial parenchyma were diffuse-in-aggregate or marginal. Rays were mostly homocellular and 3-5 seriates. Pterocarya is similar to Juglans in anatomical features but the reticulate parenchyma consisting of 1 layer on transverse section and biseriate rays.

융단조직은 약실 내에서 발달하는 소포자에 영양분을 공급하고 퇴화되는 조직으로써, 소포자 4분자 시기에 최대로 발달하고 화분벽에 포분질에 축적된 후 프로그램 세포사가 일어남으로써 세포가 죽게 되고 융단조직 전체가 퇴화된다. 액포가 융합되므로써 프로그램 세포사가 시작되고 세포질응축, 핵질 분절 등이 뒤따라 일어난다. 지질 덩어리는 비교적 늦은 시기에 퇴화되며 orbicular body는 가장 늦게까지 남아 있게 된다. 융단세포의 프로그램세포사 전 과정 중에서 세포벽은 액포에서 기원하는 가수분해 효소에 비교적 안정적이므로 가장 늦게 퇴화되는 것으로 확인되었다.

Carex L. (Cyperaceae) is the largest angiosperm genus in the temperate zones with more than 2,000 species worldwide. Unusual chromosome structures, called holocentric chromosomes, have been postulated to contribute to species diversity in the genus. In Korea, this genus has the greatest number of species, but chromosome information as it pertains to the taxa is mostly unknown. Here, we report meiotic chromosome numbers of five Carex taxa in Korea. The following observations are made: Carex jaluensis Kom. ($n=27_{II}$, $28_{II}$, $29_{II}$, $30_{II}$), C. japonica Thunb. ($n=28_{II}$, $29_{II}$), C. planiculmis Kom. ($n=30_{II}$), C. miyabei Franch. ($n=33_{II}$, $36_{II}$), C. neurocarpa Maxim. ($n=51_{II}$, $53_{II}$, $54_{II}$). Except for C. planiculmis, all of the species exhibit variations in chromosome numbers within individuals and/or taxa. The findings with regard to chromosome number diversity in Carex suggest that chromosome number variation (aneuploidy, agmatoploidy and/or symploidy) plays an important role in the richness of the species in the genus. Further cytological investigations are needed for a better understanding of sedge diversity in Korean flora.

Owing to the rapid development of sequencing technologies, more than 1,000 plant genomes have been sequenced and released. Among them, 69 Korean plant taxa (85 genome sequences) contain at least one whole-genome sequence despite the fact that some samples were not collected in Korea. The sequencing-by-synthesis method (next-generation sequencing) and the PacBio (third-generation sequencing) method were the most commonly used in studies appearing in 65 publications. Several scaffolding methods, such as the Hi-C and 10x types, have also been used for pseudo-chromosomal assembly. The most abundant families among the 69 taxa are Rosaceae (10 taxa), Brassicaceae (7 taxa), Fabaceae (7 taxa), and Poaceae (7 taxa). Due to the rapid release of plant genomes, it is necessary to assemble the current understanding of Korean plant species not only to understand their whole genomes as our own plant resources but also to establish new tools for utilizing plant resources efficiently with various analysis pipelines, including AI-based engines.

The concepts of phylogeny and floral genetics play a crucial role in understanding the origin and diversification of flowers in angiosperms. Angiosperms evolved a great diversity of ways to display their flowers for reproductive success with variations in floral color, size, shape, scent, arrangements, and flowering time. The various innovations in floral forms and the aggregation of flowers into different kinds of inflorescences have driven new ecological adaptations, speciation, and angiosperm diversification. Evolutionary developmental biology seeks to uncover the developmental and genetic basis underlying morphological diversification. Advances in the developmental genetics of floral display have provided a foundation for insights into the genetic basis of floral and inflorescence evolution. A number of regulatory genes controlling floral and inflorescence development have been identified in model plants such as Arabidopsis thaliana and Antirrhinum majus using forward genetics, and conserved functions of many of these genes across diverse non-model species have been revealed by reverse genetics. Transcription factors are vital elements in systems that play crucial roles in linked gene expression in the evolution and development of flowers. Therefore, we review the sex-linked genes, mostly transcription factors, associated with the complex and dynamic event of floral development and briefly discuss the sex-linked genes that have been characterized through next-generation sequencing.

한반도와 일본에 서식하는 왕거머리말(Zostera asiatica Miki, Zosteraceae)의 서식 환경에 따른 형태적인 변이를 분석하기 위해 동해연안과 일본 훗카이도에 서식하는 왕거머리말의 식물체와 서식지의 해수 및 퇴적물을 채집 분석하였다. 본 조사를 통하여 왕거머리말은 한반도 지역에서는 수심 8.5∼10 m의 개방된 만과 외해의 영향을 직접 받는 지역에서 주로 서식하며, 동해연안의 공현진리, 동호리, 그리고 영동과 칠포 지역이 왕거머리말의 새로운 자생지로 확인되었다. 그러나 일본 홋카이도의 아케시만(Akkeshi Bay)에 있어서는 한반도와는 달리 1.5∼3m의 수심이 얕은 내만에서 서식하였다. 한반도 동해 연안에서 왕거머리말의 서식지 퇴적물의 입도는 모래로 구성되었다. 한반도 동해 연안의 집단에서는 식물체의 높이가 64.0∼75.7cm, 폭 11.0∼l5.0 mm로 나타났으나, 아케시만에 서식하는 식물체 집단의 높이 187∼234 cm, 폭은 18.0∼l8.7 mm로, 후자의 경우가 훨씬 큰 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 변이에 의해 규정된 한반도 동해연안의 집단간 그리고 일본 아케시만의 집단간핵 리보소옴 DNA의 ITS 염기서열 비교 분석에 의한 유전적 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다.

인터넷의 발달과 생물다양성협약(Convention on Biological Diversity; CBD), 멸종위기에 처한 야생 동식물 종의 국제거래에 관한 협약(Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species; CITES) 등으로 국내 자생 식물들과 함께 전 세계 식물들의 정보를 국내에서도 빈번하게 접하고, 또한 이를 이용하고 있다. 이에 현재 전 세계적으로 가장 널리 사용되고 있는 APG III 분류체계에서 채택한 과명 및 목명 전체에 대한 국문의 표준화가 요구되지만, 지금까지 이들에 대한 통일적 국문화에 대한 논의는 부족하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 1) 기존의 국내 자생 분류군들이 속한 과명 및 목명을 종합하여 비교하고, 2) 국내에 분포하지 않는 종들이 속하는 과명과 목명의 국문화에 대하여 현재까지 이루어진 방법들을 고찰하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 3) 본 연구자들이 판단한 타당한 기준에 의해 APG III 분류체계 상의 과와 목에 대한 국명의 표준안을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 목과 과에 대한 국명들은 향후 전문가 그룹의 논의를 거쳐 공표될 국가표준안의 기초를 제공할 것이다.
