In order to elucidate influence of nutritional status on rice brown spot caused by Cochliobolus miyabeanus, rice cultivation soils and rice straws were collected from paddy fields where ice brown spot occurred severely, moderately, a little and none respectively. Rice plant materials were analyzed to measure inorganic nutrients in rice straws and rice seeds. Analysis of chemical properties of rice paddy soil showed that EC and contents of available phosphate, cation and silicic acid in soil with severe infections were lower than those in healthy soil. This result suggests that amount and holding capacity of nutrient contents in soils collected from paddy field with infection of C. miyabeanus are relatively low compared to those in soils collected from healthy paddy field. Analysis of inorganic nutrients in rice straws showed that amount of macronutrient elements such as silicic acids, available phosphate and total nitrogen, and micronutrients such as copper, iron and zinc in rice straws from paddy field with infection were lower than those in healthy soil. Especially amount of iron and silicic acid were very low in rice straws from paddy field soils with infection Amount of inorganic nutrients such as iron and zinc in rice seeds was the same trend as those of rice straws. These results showed that one of major factors affecting rice brown spot was amount of nutrient contents in soil and rice straw.

Dollar spot and brown patch disease are the most economically important disease for highly maintained turfgrass area such as golf courses. Previous researches indicated that various natural fertilizers are good nitrogen (N) sources and they may lead to turf disease suppression because disease suppression by natural N sources may be due to microbial activity increased. Increased microbial activities in soil reduce the activity of plant pathogen. The objective of this study was to evaluate efficacy of various N sources to suppress dollar spot and brown patch on creeping bentgrass. The seven N sources and fungicide combinations were investigated for turf disease suppression. $Emerald^{TM}$ and $ProStar^{TM}$ were applied for the applications of fungicide combination. No differences were found on turf quality among N source treatments. However, there was significant difference on turf quality between fungicide combination and fungicide combination plus urea. Overall, N source had no significant effects on suppression of dollar spot and brown patch. Although there were a few differences among N source treatments, fungicide treatments were needed for turf disease suppression for highly maintained turfgrass area such as golf courses.

Of 1, 428 entries examined to locate gene sources resistant to Septoria brown spot from the Korean native soybean collection, most lines were evaluated as highly susceptible, showing numerous leaf spots with surrounding yellowing tissue, while 136 lines of the entries showed the leaf spots without the yellowing. However, leaf defoliation was so much higher in inoculated soybean plants than those of uninoculated, regardless of leaf yellowing that resistance to Septoria brown spot could not be characterized by the lesion type. Various yield composing characters were negatively correlated to the leaf defoliation, suggesting that early defoliation incited by Septoria brown spot might result in significant yield reduction in soybean.

Leaf spot on lemon balm is frequently observed in Korea, causing considerable damage to crops. In 2014 and 2015, the occurrence of leaf spot was observed in several production greenhouses at Suwon, Gongju, and Namwon in Korea. Symptoms on lower leaves initially developed as small, distinct, discolored lesions, which enlarged progressively turning into dark brown, angular spots surrounded by purplish-brown margins. Based on the morphological characteristics and sequence analysis of actin (ACT), translation elongation factor 1-alpha (EF-1α), internal transcribed spacer (ITS), 28S nrDNA (LSU), and RNA polymerase II second largest subunit (RPB2), the fungus associated with the lemon balm leaf spot was determined as Septoria melissae. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of lemon balm leaf spot caused by S. melissae in Asia as well as in Korea.

In September 2013 and 2014, a significant number of kenaf plants showing symptoms of leaf spots with approximately 50% incidence were found in experimental plots in Iksan and Namwon, Korea. Leaf spots were circular to irregular, more or less vein-limited, reaching to 10 mm in diameter. The spots were initially uniformly brown to reddish brown, turning pale brown with a purplish margin and showing grayish patches on the lesion due to heavy fructification. The causative agent of the leaf spot disease was identified as Cercospora malayensis. The pathogenicity test was conducted with similar results, which fulfilled Koch's postulates. This is the first report of C. malayensis infection of kenaf in Korea.

The present study was carried out to determine appropriate growth stage for evaluating resistance to septoria brown spot in field and to search resistance sources from soybean germ plasm. Disease severity expressed by log $\frac{x}{1-x}$ was different with soybean genotypes and vertical progress of the disease was related to the diseased leaf area. Correlation between diseased leaf area and the area under septoria brown spot disease progress curve (AUBC) was highest at full blooming stage, indicating a reasonable stage for measuring the disease severity to evaluate resistance in field. There was no lines highly resistant to the disease among 1,428 native soybean lines tested.

Black spot disease on sweet persimmon (Diospyros kaki cv. Fuyu) was found from the farmer's refregerated ware house located in Dong-eup, Changwon city, Gyeongnam province, Korea, 2002. The typical symptoms of the disease was appeared black spot on surface of fruits. Colonies of causal fungus were developed velvety and later turned olivaceous black to sooty black in color on PDA. Conidia were pale brown to golden brown in color and ovoid, obclavate to obpyriform, rarely ellipsoid in shape. and were 12∼46 ${\times}$ 6∼12 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. Septa were 3∼5 transvers, 1∼2 longitudinal or oblique. Conidia were mostly beakless and generated chains by means of secondary conidiophores. Conidiophores were pale to mid brown in color and 42∼95 ${\times}$ 3∼5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. The optimum temperature for growth of the fungus was about 25∼3$0^{\circ}C$. This is the first report on the black spot of sweet persimmon caused by Alternaria alternata (Fr.) Keissler in Korea.

In order to investigate the genetic marker associated with economic performance in Hanwoo (Korean Brown Cattle), proteomic approach was used. Breeding values were estimated from performance tested steers. The top 20 and bottom 19 steers based on carcass weight (CW), eye muscle area (EMA), backfat thickness (BF) and marbling score (MS) evaluation for one progeny testing period was used. Meat samples dissected from longissimus dorsi muscles were taken from the slaughter house and analyzed for two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. A total of 102 significant spots out of total 146 on each gel were detected and compared with the reference gel (synthetic gel) to be evaluated. Four candidate spots for marbling score were identified: 205, 84, 204 and 198. The study confirmed the relationship between breeding values of economic traits of Hanwoo cattle and spot intensity.

A terget leaf spot of red and white clovers was observed during 1998-2000 growing seasons in several fields of Chungnam and Chungbuk provinces in Korea. Lesions were circular to oval in outline, brown to dark brown, ranging from a pinpoint to 3-4 mm in diameter, often concentrically zonate and presenting a target effect. A fungus associated with the disease was identified as Stemphylium sarciniforme based on the morphological characteristics of the conidiophores and conidia. The fungus was pathogenic on red and white clovers in the inoculation test. This is the first record of a terget leaf spot of red and white clovers in Korea.
