  • BACKGROUND: The field margins, which are uncultivated area of permanent vegetation located adjacent to field, play an important role in enhancing biodiversity in the agricultural ecosystem. This study focused on floristic characteristics on dry field margins in Korea Peninsula. METHODS AND RESULTS: This study was conducted at margins of 196 dry fields in 32 areas in 8 provinces in May and September 2013. The vascular plants of the dry field margins were listed 347 taxa which contain 73 families, 219 genera, 311 species, 1 subspecies, 30 varieties and 5 forms. Of these 347 taxa, 48 taxa were woody plants and 299 taxa were herbaceous plants. Among total 73 families, Compositae (17.6%) was the most dominant family, and followed Gramineae (15.9%), Polygonaceae (5.8%), Leguminosae (4.9%) and Cyperaceae (3.8%). Based on relative frequency values of survey fields, the appearance frequency of Digitaria ciliaris (89.8%) was the highest, and followed Acalypha australis (86.2%), Artemisia princeps (82.1%), Commelina communis (80.6%) and Portulaca oleracea (80.6%). Disturbance index of dry field margins was 55.0% at national level, and Gangwon region was the highest among the 8 regions at regional level. Life form spectrum was determined to be $Th-R_5-D_4-etype$. CONCLUSION: These results will be used fundamental data for studies to improve or even stabilize the current state of plant biodiversity in agricultural environments.

  • Pulmonary sequestration is a congenital malformation characterized by an area of embryonic lung tissue that derives its blood supply from an anomalous systemic artery. Two forms recognized: extralobar and intralobar. Extralobar form is a very rare congenital malformation, usually located in the lower chest, and may be found in newborn infants at the time a congenital diaphragmatic hernia is repaired. Large sequestrated segments may be cause acute respiratory distress in the neonate. The condition is asymptomatic in 15 per cent of patients. This report presents two cases of pulmonary sequestration which misdiagnosed a superior mediastinal tumor and a benign lung tumor. First case was 30-year-old male patient and chief complaints were dyspnea, dry cough and right chest pain. Chest X-ray showed a homogenous increased density of smooth margin at the right superior mediastinal area and suggested a benign mediastinal tumor. And so explothoracotomy was made without other special studies. Second case was 28-year-old male patient. One month ago, he had tracheostomy and right closed thoracostomy due to massive hemoptysis and spontaneous hemothorax. Chest X-ray showed a benign cystic lesion at RLL area. At the time of operation, in first case, a mass of adult fist size was placed medial to the right upper lobe and densely adhesive to trachea, SVC and esophagus. Blood supply of the mass was bronchial arteries of trachea and RUL bronchus and drained to SVC and azygos vein through anomalous systemic veins. There was no bronchial communication on Frozen biopsy. In 2nd case, large cystic lesion contained old blood hematoma was located in RLL and anomalous blood vessel from thoracic aorta was drained to posterior segment of RLL. In operation field, intralobar pulmonary sequestration was diagnosed, and RLL lobectomy was carried out.
