Studies were made to optimize the media composition and cultural condition for mycelial growth of ear mushroom(Auricularia auricula). Sawdust spawn of media composition for optimal growth were found to be quercus sawdust combination of 20% rice bran and poplar sawdust combination of 10% wheat bran were the best of the optimal combination. The optimal condition of the most suitable inoculation amount showed that quercus spawn and poplar spawn were 15g, 25g, respectively.

The essential oils were isolated by hydrodistillation and their composition determined capillary GC method with standards. The essential oil content showed significant differences between the two populations on the vegetative organs. The essential oil level of the leaves and roots was considerably higher in the Korean population at full flowering and waxy ripening stage but essential oil content of the roots was significantly higher in the Hungarian taxon at leaf rosette stage. We observed the essential oil accumulation tendency was mianly dependent on plant organs and intra-specific taxon during the vegeation period. Butylidene-phthalide was proved to be the main component of the oil in both population roots (50.9-73.3%), while dimethyl-acetate was showed as a major compound on the over-ground parts (56.7-62.0%). The qualitative composition of the essential oil in the reproductive organs concerning the identified compounds was the same as the vegetative parts with the main component ${\alpha}-phellandrene$ (4.8-28.1%) and butylidene-phtalide (9.7-16.1%), The quantitative composition showed some changes during the ontogenesis phases. Most characteristic ones are the decreasing proportion of dimethyl-acetate (from 7.3% to 1.1%) and the appearance of ${\alpha}-pinene$ (from 0.5% to 1.5%) only after fruit setting in both population.

Difference of fatty acid composition of rapeseeds from different regions in Korea and Japan were found. Erucic acid content of the rapeseeds produced in Korea, particulary in Mokpo was higher than that produced in Japan. While, the contents of oleic and linoleic acids produced in Korea were lower than those produced in Japan. It was considered being due to temperature, amount of precipitation and hours of sunshine during the maturing period.

The fatty acid composition of the oil in the rapeseed grown by spring and autumn planting were determined by gas liquid phase chromatography. Erucic acid content of the rapeseed oil grown by autumn planting was higher than that produced by spring planting, but the contents of oleic acid and linoleic acid were lower in autumn planting than those in spring planting. There was significant difference at 1% level between seasonal plantings. The reasons for the different fatty acid compositions were the low integrated temperature, the high amount of precipitation and the short hours of sunshine during the maturing period in autumn planting.

To obtain the basic informations about the repeseed Quality improvement, If varieties were analyzed for their seed protein content and amino acid composition, and discussed comparing to several other oilseed crops or varietal origin and seed weight or maturity. Total protein content of the tested varieties were ranged from 15.3 to 36.2% with mean protein content of 23.2%. The highest protein content was recorded in B. hirta var. Ochre, whereas the lowest in B. napus var. Mirado. Grouped by seed weight, small seed varieties were higher in protein content. A high negative correlation (-0.524) was observed between the content of protein and oil. Further, more the relationship between protein content and 1,000 seed weight was also very significant with the correlation coefficient of -0.622. The amino acid composition of rapeseed meal was characterized by a relatively high methionine and lysine content. Main amino acids were glutamic and aspartic acid in rapeseed.

Lipid extraction preceding fatty acid methyl esters preparation for gas-liquid chromatography is time-consuming and cumbersome. We performed one-step extraction/methylation method with a mixture of methanol-heptane-benzene-DMP-H$_2$SO$_4$ without prior fat extraction. The simultaneous digestion and lipid transmethylation takes place at 8$0^{\circ}C$ in a single phase. After cooling till room temperature, two phases are formed. The upper one of the phases contains the fatty acid methyl esters ready for GLC. The fatty acid composition of major industrial crops obtained by the one step extraction/methylation method (method 1 and 2) was almost identical with the fatty acid composition of the pure fats extracted with hexane by the Soxtec instrument (method 3). Due to its simplicity, speed, and reduced organic solvent the one-step extraction/methylation method (method 1 and 2) should be useful to determine overall fatty acid composition, especially in situations where many samples have to be analyzed.

This study investigated the chemical composition of Petasites japonicus (S. et Z.) Maxim essential oil. During the period 2011~2013, P. japonicus (S. et Z.) Maxim plant was investigated for composition of the essential oil. Chemical composition and characteristic compounds of the essential oils from the aerial parts of the plant according to the crop year studied. The essential oils consisted of sesquiterpene compounds, which were the most abundant components. Samples collected in 2011 were found to be richer in oxygenated sesquiterpenes, while samples collected in 2012 and 2013 were richer in diterpene alcohols and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, respectively. Ninety-two compounds were identified in the P. japonicus (S. et Z.) Maxim essential oil of 2011, and caryophyllene oxide (20.49%), ${\beta}$-caryophyllene (10.28%), ${\beta}$-bisabolene (6.80%), and alloaromadendrene (6.50%) were the major compounds. Seventy-four compounds were identified in the plant essential oil of 2012, and phytol (17.22%), ${\alpha}$-farnesene (15.31%), ${\alpha}$-caryophyllene (9.93%), and ${\beta}$-caryophyllene (6.12%) were the major compounds. Ninety-two compounds were identified in the plant essential oil of 2013, and ${\alpha}$-farnesene (22.42%), ${\alpha}$-caryophyllene (21.49%), pentadecane (15.35%), and germacrene (5.70%) were the major compounds. The content of most of the chemical constituents varied significantly with different harvesting time. The content of ${\alpha}$-caryophyllene and caryophyllene oxide was increased significantly from 2011 to 2013. The content of ${\alpha}$-caryophyllene and isocaryophyllene was decreased significantly from 2011 to 2013.

To secure raw materials of biodiesel production, the possibility of camellia (C. japonica L.) and tea (C. sinensis L.) seed oil was studied to produce biodiesel. In this research, crude oil contents and fatty acid compositions of seeds were analyzed by Solxlet and Gas chromatography (GC). The oil contents in the seeds of camellia were 69.8%~73.8%, and tea were 26.3%~29.4%. Among the fatty acids of camellia and tea oil, oleic acid was dominant. The unsaturated fatty acids accounted for 88.4% and 80.2% of the whole fatty acids of camellia and tea seed oil. Total seed oil content and fatty acid composition of tea seed were influenced by collecting date. Across maturation period, oil content of tea seed averaged 18.3% on $6^{th}$ September increasing to 27.9% by $11^{th}$ October. For largest seed yield and oil content, the optimum time to harvest tea is in middle october, and camellia is late september and thereafter. The extraction efficiency of oil from seeds by extraction methods was determined. Biodiesel were synthesized in 92.1~92.8% yields from camellia and tea oils by transesterification. The biodiesel was characterized by its physical and fuel properties including oxidation stability, iodine value and cold filter plugging point (CFPP). Oxidation stability of camellia was 8.6~8.8 hours and tea was 2.9~3.6 at $110^{\circ}C$. Camellia oil had considerably better oxidation stability and CFPP than tea oil.
