A pesticide monitoring survey was undertaken for the both 30 samples of pears and sweet persimmons from chief producing districts in1985 to evaluate pesticide residues in these agrcultural products and also to give basic informations in establishing maximum residue limits. Pesticide residues in pears were detected with fairly low in 7-60% of total samples. Even the maximum residue levels were only in the amount of 1/53-2/3 compared with maximum residue limits established in fruits in Environment Administration, Korea. Most of the residues (71-82%) was remained in peels of pears. Incase of sweet persimmons, captan, captafol, EPN, parathion, and phenthoate residues were also detected with fairly low in 3-20% of total samples. Presently, it is considered that pesticide residues in pears and sweet persimmons may be no harmful levels for food commodities.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of sulfur containing pesticides, captan, edifenphos, EPN, acephate, asulam, bentazone on arylsulfatase activity in soil incubated at $30^{\circ}C$ for 42 days with or without urea addition. The results obtained were as follows: When pesticides, captan, edifenphos, EPN, acephate, asulam, bentazone were treated in urea added and unadded soil, the activity of arylsulfatase was the highest at 7 days of incubation. The arylsulfatase activity in urea added soil was kept higher as compared with that of the urea unadded soil. When pesticides, captan, edifenphos, acephate, asulam, bentazone, were treated in urea added and unadded soil, the activity of arylsulfatase was inhibited at the entire experimental period. By the treatment of EPN in urea added and unadded soil, the arylsulfatase activity was decreased at the early stage of treatment, but increased after 28 days of incubation.

This study was carried out for dietary safety based on the level of pesticide residues in 17 kinds of the agricultural products (apple, cabbage, cabbage kor, carrot, cucumber, pepper, onion, potato, radish, spring onion, pumpkin, lettuce, garlic, drapwort, spinach, leek crown daisy) consumed in Kyunggi-do and Inchon-city that provided for the army. From January 1998 to December 2001, ten organochlorine pesticides in 1075 samples were analyzed by using GC-ECD. According to the results, one kind of pesticides was detected in 135(12.5%) samples, and two kinds were in 7 (5.18%). While dicofol and tetradifon was not fecund. Detection rate of pesticides were 9.02% for $\alpha$, $\beta$-endosulfan, 2.8% far chlorothalonil, 0.46% for γ-BHC, 0.40% for chlorobenzilate, 0.33% for folpet, 0.28% far DDT, 0.15% for captafol, and 0.11% for captan. Dectection ranges of pesticides were from 0.001 to 0.092 ppm for $\alpha$, $\beta$-endosulfan, from 0.003 to 0.023 ppm for chlorothalonil, from 0.003 to 0.006 ppm far γ -BHC, from 0.001 to 0.003 ppm for DDT, from 0.009 to 0.095 ppm for folpet, 0.05 ppm for captan, 0.01 ppm for captafol, and 0.008 ppm far chlorobenzilatel respectively. Consequentlyl all detected pesticide levels in samples were below maximum residue limits(MRLs) in Korea and Codex.

Sixty isolates of Dendrophoma obscurans isolated from 19 important strawberry growing areas of Korea were tested in vitro for resistance to thiophanate-methyl and iprodione. Naturally-occurring thiophanate-methyl-resistant isolates were about 43 percents of isolates tested, whereas iprodione-resistant isolates were 10 percents. All these resistant isolates except SU 1 and SU 2, which were highly resistant to thiophanate-methyl, showed a week level of resistance. Iprodione-resistant isolates were readily obtained in vitro, when mycelial disk of the fungus was incubated on PDA media containing iprodione at the concentrations of $1{\mu}g/ml\;and\;10{\mu}g/ml$, but no thiophanate-methyl-resistant isolate from the mycelia with or without UV irradiation. All these artificially-obtained iprodione-resistant isolates were showed a high degree of resistance. On the strawberry leaves, thiophanate-methyl and iprodione were no longer effective to all resistant isolates at the recommended concentration, and the protective value to highly resistant isolates was much less than that of weakly resistant isolates. Isolates resistant to thiophanate-methyl were also resistant to benomyl but iprodione-resistant isolates did not show cross-resistance to thiophanate-methyl, benomyl, captan and zineb. Captan controlled both thiophanate methyl-resistant and iprodione-resistant isolates as effectively as sensitive isolates.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of ozone treatment on the growth and pesticide-residual contents of soybean sprouts during cultivation. Total weight and length of the soybean sprouts treated by 0.3 ppm ozone water for 30min during soaking of soybean increased 27% and 19% higher than those of control group, respectively. But 27% of root weight decreased. No major differences in growth state were observed between the treatments during soaking and watering with ozone water, and watering with ozone water. Pesticide residues in soybeans treated with carbendazim, captain, diazinon, fenthim, dichlorvos and chlorpyrifos ranged from 4.75 to 8.35 ppm. The pesticides in soybean sprouts by the treatment of soaking and watering with water for 5 days, those by 0.3 ppm ozone-water watering, and those by soaking and watering with 0.3 ppm ozone water were destroyed to $85{\sim}99$, $89{\sim}100$ and $94{\sim}100%$, respectively. The order of degradation ratio in the pesticides was captan>dichlorvos>fenthion>carbendazin>diazinon>chlorpyrifos.

These experiment were conducted to evaluate the environmentally acceptable polymers, and 10 polymers were used in these study, and to investigate conductivity, germination percentage, water uptake of polymeric coating soybean seed. The conductivity of polymeric coating seed is higher than that of none coating seed and the highest conductivity was obtained with waterlock coating seed among the 10 polymer coating seed. As the soaking time was long, the conductivity was increased. The conductivity of large seed was higher than that of small seed, and that of long period storage seed was higher than that of short period storage seed. The effects of seed coating polymers on uptake water were various, and daran 8600 inhibited uptake water of low quality seed. The waterlock, captan, klucel and sacrust was rised germination percentage, and daran 8600 was declined germination percentage, and the effect of coating polymers on germination percentage of low quality seed was higher than that of high quality seed.

The fifty percent effective concentration (EC50) and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of iprodione on the resistant isolates of Alternaria mali obtained from infected leaves in Kyeongsan region ranged $550\~1,310{\mu}g/ml$ and $33,800-39,800{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. Conidia germination of the resistant isolates reached $70\%$ on PSA added with iprodione, $500{\mu}g/ml$ When treated with $500{\mu}g/ml$ iprodione soon after the inoculation the diameters of lesions on apple fruits 7days after inoculation with the resistant isolates were 1.6-14.6mm but no lesions appeared on those inoculated with the sensitive isolates. A similar trend of responses with the sensitive isolates was shown to benomyl, chlorothalonil, garbenda, thiophanatemethyl and triademefon with the resistant isolates. One isolate among the resistant ones was cross resistance to captan and folpet that were effective to the sensitive isolates.
