Proper actions such as discard, return or manufacturing should be taken to imported plants contaminated with quarantine weeds. Heat-treatment has been used as a processing method in many countries such as U.S., Australia, Canada as well as Korea. This study was carried to find appropriate heat-treatment methods for devitalizing dodder seeds mixed with plant seeds. Two species of dodder seeds and six imported seeds were treated for 1, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45 minutes or 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8 hours at the temperatures of $75^{\circ}C$, $80^{\circ}C$, $85^{\circ}C$, $90^{\circ}C$, $95^{\circ}C$, $100^{\circ}C$ and $120^{\circ}C$. According to the study, dodder seeds were devitalized at the conditions of $85^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours, $90^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes, $95^{\circ}C$ and $100^{\circ}C$ for 15 minutes, $110^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes and $120^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, seed vigours of Cosmos bipinnatus and Callistephus chinensis had no difference when compared with untreated control at the heat-treatment conditions of $85^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours, $90^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes.

Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora, Pseudomonas viridiflava and Pseudomonas marginalis pv. marginalis were tested for their pathogenicity to 35 kinds of domestic flowering plants. Among them, the following domestic flowering plants showed clear symptoms. 1. Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora : (Needle inoculation). Carnation(Dianthus catgophylius L.), madagascar periwinkle(Vinca rosea L.), flower gentle(Amaranthus tricolor L.), snapdragon(Antirrhinum majus L.), chrysanthemum(Chrysanthemum morifolium Ram.), mexiacan ageratum(Ageratum houstonianum Mill), china aster(Callistephus chinensis), youth and old age(Zinnia elegans Jacq.), common nasturtium(Tropaeorum majus L.), scarlet sage(Salvia splendens F.), dahlia(Dahia hybrida), pot marigold(Calendula officinalis L.), begonia treevine(Cissus dicolor Blume), cosmos(Cosmos bipinnatus Cav.), globe amaranth(Gomphrena globosa L.), black eyed susan(Thumbergia alata Bojer), common gypsophila(Gypsophila elegans Bieb.), ghent gladiolus(Gladiolus gandavensis Van.), indian shot(Canna orchiodes Bailey), iris(Iris nertschinskia Lodd), cyclamen primula(Dodecatheon meadia L.), scarlet kafir lily(Clivia miniata Regel.), flowering cabbage(Brassica oleracea L.). (Spray inoculation). Carnation, madagascar periwinkle, flower gentle, snapdragon, common nasturtium, ghent gladiolus, indian shot, cyclamen primula. 2. Pseudomonas viridiflava : (Needle inoculation).
