The districbution of $C_3; and; C_4$ type plants in Korea were studied. In the standpoint of photosynthetic types, plant distribution in Korea is classified as $C_3; and; C_4$ type plant zones. The forest destroyed by man interference, cultivating areas, and seashore areas are characterized by the dominant of $C_4$ type plants.(Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5) According to the results of this study, $C_3; and; C_4$ type plant distribution in Korea has a great relation to the habitat of plant vegetation (Table 1). The arid areas were in high proportion of C4 flora percenntages, while the well-developed woody forests or the vegetation of humid areas were in lower proportion(Fig.8).

The radioactive compound sodium $acetate-U-C^{14}\;(C^{14}-acetate)$ was administered to two- and four-year-old July and September American ginseng (Araliaceae, Panax quinquefolium L.) plants and cuttings. The $C^{14}-acetate$ uptake was approximately 99%. The autoradiochromatograms suggest that the saponins isolated by preparative thin-layer chromatography contained impurities, especially those isolated from the leaf and stem extracts. The root and fruit methanol extracts yielded relatively pure saponins. The large amounts of panaquilin B and its proximity to panaquilin C on preparative thin-layer plates resulted in some admixing. The average concentration (% plant dry weight) of semi-purified saponins were high in the leaves (13.8%), as compared to fruits (9.8%), stems (7.9%) and roots (6.3%). The average percentage of $C^{14}-acetate$ incorporation into panaquilins was 4.8%. The average percentage of $C^{14}-acetate$ incorporation into panaquilins B and C was higher (1.40% and 1.13%, respectively) than that into panaquilins C, (d), G-1 and G-2 (0.75%, 0.65%, 0.13% and 0.53%, respectively). Panaquilin synthesis may be depending upon the part, collection period and age of the plant. The average percentage of $C^{14}-acetate$ incorporation into panaquilin B is high in roots (0.58%) and stems (0.48%); that into panaquilins C and (d) high in leaves (0.40% and 0.45%, respectively); and that into panaquilin E high in roots and leaves (0.55% and 0.50%, respectively). Panaquilin G-2 was synthesized in all parts of plants. The panaquilins appear to be biosynthesized more actively in July than September (exception-panaquilin G-1). Panaquilins B, C and G-1 may be biosynthesized more actively in four-year-old plants and panaquilins (d) and E more actively in two-year-old plants. The results from expectance with cuttings suggest that the panaquilins are synthesized de novo in the above-ground parts of ginseng plants, and that panaquilin G-1 may be synthesized de novo in the leaf. It is known from the tissue culture studies that panaquilins are produced by leaf, stem and root callus tissues and cailus-root cultures of American and Korean ginseng plants. Panaquilins may actively be synthesized de novo in most any cell or organ of the ginseng plants. It was verified that $C^{14}-acetate$ was incorporated into the panaxadiol portions of the panaquilins of two-year-old plants (sp. act. 0.56 mmcCi/mg) and four-year-old plants $(sp.\;act.\;0.54\;m{\mu}Ci/mg)$.

This study was conducted to investigate seed dormancy type and germination characteristics of Lonicera chrysantha. In imbibition test, the seeds imbibed water readily. Therefore, the seeds did not have physical dormancy (PY). The seeds have undeveloped embryo at seed dispersal and, then the E:S ratio (embryo/seed ratio) increased more than about 46% just before germination. In temperature experiments (5, 15, 20 and $25^{\circ}C$), the seeds did not germinate during incubation at $5^{\circ}C$. At $20^{\circ}C$, the seeds started to germinate from a week after sowing and the final germination was 86.7% at 2 weeks after sowing. At $15^{\circ}C$, the seeds started to germinate at 2 weeks and the final germination rate was 75.0% at 4 weeks after sowing. At $25^{\circ}C$, the seeds started to germinate at a week and the final germination rate was 48.3% at 19 weeks after sowing. Consequently, Optimum temperature of germination is $20^{\circ}C$ that shown highest final germination rate and shortest mean germination time. The seeds germinated all temperature treatments within 4 weeks except to $5^{\circ}C$. Therefore, it is concluded that seeds of L. chrysantha have only morphological dormancy (MD).

층실사초는 경북 북부를 포함한 강원도 지역의 습기있는 음지에서 자생한다. 여러해살이풀로서 주료 사료용으로 사용되며 지피식물 등 정원소재로도 사용된다. 본 연구는 층실사초의 대량증식을 위해 가장 효과적인 파종 시기를 구명하고자 수행하였다. 종자의 최적 발아조건을 찾기 위해 배양상 온도조건을 항온조건(30, 25, 20, 15, $5^{\circ}C$)과 변온조건(15/30, 20/10, $25/15^{\circ}C$) 총 8가지 조건으로 설정하여 발아율을 매일 측정하였다. 광조건은 형광등을 이용한 명조건과 암조건을 매일 12시간씩 반복하였다. 실험결과, 항온조건에서 발아율은 $25^{\circ}C$에서 $36{\pm}6.3%$로 가장 높게 나타났고, $20^{\circ}C$ ($27{\pm}4.4%$), $30^{\circ}C$ ($24{\pm}1.6%$) 순으로 나타났으며, $15^{\circ}C$, $5^{\circ}C$에서는 발아하지 않았다. 한편, 변온조건에서의 발아율은 $25/15^{\circ}C$에서 $22{\pm}7.3%$, $15/30^{\circ}C$에서 $10{\pm}2.5%$ 발아하였고, $20/10^{\circ}C$에서는 발아하지 않았다. 따라서 층실사초 종자의 발아최적온도는 $25^{\circ}C$이고 변온보다 항온이 유리했으며, 이 이상의 온도에서는 오히려 발아율이 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 가장 효과적인 파종 시기를 추정할 때, 낮 기온 $25^{\circ}C$의 초여름에 실시하되, 밤 기온이 너무 내려가지 않도록 조절해준다면 보다 높은 발아율을 기대할 수 있을 것으로 여겨진다. 그러나 본 연구결과, 최고 발아율이 $36{\pm}6.3%$로 비교적 낮기 때문에 발아율 향상을 위한 추가적인 실험이 필요할 것이다.

The result of the study on the classification of $C_3 and C_4$ type plans in Korea is as follows. Seven families and 92 species of $C_4$ type plants(Table 1) were contained among the the herbaceous plants naturally growin in Korea. Most of $C_4$ type plants were Gramineae of mononcotyledons, and the $C_4$ type plants of dicotyledons were weeds in cultivating area, tidal halophtes, and horticultural plants.

Selective action of root-treated oxyfluorfen [(2-chloro-4-thrifluoromethylphenyl)-3'-ethoxy-4'-nitrophenyl ether] and chlomethoxynil [2, 4-dichlorophenyl-3'-methoxy-4'-nitrophenyl ether] were investigated. Oxyfluorfen showed greater activity to all plant species than chlomethoxynil. $^{14}C$-oxyfluorfen was little metabolized in roots of the plant species and more slowly absorbed than $^{14}C$-chlomethoxynil. These results suggest that herbicidal activity of oxyfluorfen at the site of action is higher than chlomethoxynil. In the tested plants, rice, barnyardgrass, sorghum, and corn were absorbed less of the oxyfluorfen and chlomethoxynil than the broad leaf plant species. However, no clear relationship was observed between a degree of tolerance and absorption and metabolism of both herbicides by the plant species.

진퍼리사초는 한반도 중부 이북에 분포하고, 군락 자생지는 강원도 동해안 석호 주변 모래땅 1곳인 것으로 보고되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 진퍼리사초 현지외보전을 위한 대량증식 연구의 일환으로 가장 효과적인 파종 시기를 구명하고자 수행하였다. 종자의 최적 발아조건을 찾기 위해 배양상 온도조건을 항온(30, 25, 20, 15, $5^{\circ}C$)과 변온(15/30, 20/10, $25/15^{\circ}C$) 총 8가지 조건으로 설정하여 발아율을 매일 측정하였다. 광조건은 명/암을 매일 12시간씩 반복하였으며 모든 실험은 국립백두대간수목원 발아실험실의 생장상에서 진행하였다. 실험결과, 항온조건에서 발아율은 $30^{\circ}C$에서 $39{\pm}7.5%$로 가장 높게 나타났고, $20^{\circ}C$ ($28{\pm}4.3%$), $25^{\circ}C$ ($24{\pm}3.7%$) 순으로 나타났으며, $15^{\circ}C$, $5^{\circ}C$에서는 발아하지 않았다. 한편, 변온조건에서의 발아율은 $25/15^{\circ}C$에서 $60{\pm}5.9%$로 가장 높게 나타났고, $15/30^{\circ}C$ ($43{\pm}4.1%$), $20/10^{\circ}C$ ($26{\pm}3.8%$) 순으로 나타났다. 따라서 진퍼리사초의 종자 발아는 항온보다 변온에서 잘 이루어졌으며, $25^{\circ}C$이상의 온도가 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 가장 효과적인 파종 시기를 추정할 때, 낮 기온이 평균 $25^{\circ}C$이상이며, 일교차가 $10^{\circ}C$ 정도인 초여름이 가장 적절할 것으로 여겨진다.

Taxonomic accounts are given to the four species of Corallinaceae, Amphiroa beauvoisii lamouroux, Jania yenoshimensis (Yendo) Yendo, Serraticardia maxima (Yendo) Silva and Corallina officinalis linnaeus, collected from Ullungdo Island, Korea. S. maxima (Y endo) Silva is introduced for the first time in Korea in this study. J. yenoshimensis (Yendo) Yendo accords well with the type speciemens but is very similar to J. arborescens in outer appearance. However it is distinguished from that in height and branching pattern. C. officinalis accords well with other plants collected from Europe and Japan except for large number of medullary cell layers.layers.

A new species, Carex brevispicula G. H. Nam & G. Y. Chung (Cyperaceae), was found in Korea. Carex brevispicula is similar to the related species C. chungii Z. P. Wang and C. genkaiensis Ohwi in that its achenes are constricted in the middle part. However, C. brevispicula is distinguished from C. chungii as the plants, staminate, and pistillate spikes are shorter and its pistillate scales are pale green; C. brevispicula is distinguished from C. genkaiensis by its awned staminate and pistillate scales. The scientific name of this new species was based on the fact that its inflorescence is shorter than that of C. chungii. The corresponding Korean name, "Jom-mok-po-sa-cho," means that the plants of this species are smaller than the "Mok-po-sa-cho" types (C. genkaiensis). We hereby provide a description of C. brevispicula, with corresponding illustrations and photographs, a distribution map, and a key of related taxa.
