A study on the competition-ecological classification of the 10 prominent paddy weed species around bulrush (Scirpus juneoides) to simplify the weed problem concept for the rice production. A serial assessments on the competition ability in space and dry matter production(nutrient depletion) of respective weed species and paddy rice, and the data were used to compute the phenotypic similarity by Single Link Clustering method. Both growth response of weed species in mono- and under the paddy rice standing was very similar (r = 0.969), but the reduction rate as affected by paddy rice standing was negatively correlated with the ability in space-competition(r=-0.513). Dendrogram of 10 weed species based on the phenotypic similarity computed in 4 characters in mono- and under the paddy rice standing was also similar, as Echinochloa c., Ludwigia p., Cyperus s., and Scirpus m. in I-group, Eleocharis k., Scirpus j, in II-group, and Juncus e., Potamogeton d. in III-group, respectively. Also, that of paddy rice to 10 weed species showed Fimbristylis m., Scirpus j., Eleocharis k., Scirpus m., Juncus e. in I-group, and Ludwigia p., Potamogeton d., Monochoria v. in II-group, respectively. The integrated dendrogram by the above two data indicate the I-group with Fimbristylis m., Scirpus j., Eleocharis k. and Juncus e., as higher growth response with relatively lower competition ability to paddy rice, II-group with Cyperus s., Echinochloa c., Potamogeton d., and Ludwigia p., as higher both in growth and competition, and the last, III-group with Monochoria v., and Scirpus m., as lower growth but higher competition, respectively.

This research was investigated to prepare basic data in a study on the copper tolerance of herbaceous plants through the growth rate and the elimination rate dependent on Cu concentration of 6 species; Commelina communis, Medicago sativa, Echinochloa frumentancea, Zea mays, Helianthus annuus and Abutilon avicennae, We examined the germination rate, root and shoot growth of seedling and fresh biomass of 6 species (Commelina communis, Medicago sativa, Echinochloa frumentancea, Zea mays, Helianthus annuus and Abutilon avicennae) painted to Cu contaminated soil (50, 100, 200, 300-CuCl₂/㎏) and control for 14 days. The germination rate of H. annuus, E. frumentancea and C. communis were not affected by Cu concentration. However, root and shoot growth of H. annuus was about 7% of control and the biomass was 35% of control at 300 ㎎-CuCl₂/㎏. E. frumentancea and C. communis that showed good growth rate at higher Cu contaminated soil (>200 -CuCl₂/㎏), were the most tolerant plant to Cu concentration. Especially, E. frumentancea eliminated over 30% of Cu in soil and the amount of Cu uptake increased with increasing Cu concentration; 1,020㎎ Cu per 1 ㎏ of soil at 300 ㎎-CuCl₂/㎏. From these results, we concluded that E. frumentancea would be used for phytoremediation.

Three varieties of Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) Beauv. and five collections different in gross morphology from the E. crus-galli species were obtained in a lowland rice field located in Jukjeol-Ri, Soyang-Myeon, Wanju-Kun, Jeonbug to compare the ecological and physiological characteristics. There were great variations in seed dormancy, relative growth rates, days required to panicle emergence and panicle morphology among the collections. On the basis of the cluster analysis using the different characteristics, the collections were divided into three groups; E. crus-galli var. frumentaceae and its two ecotypcs, E. crus-galli var. echinata and its two ecotypes, and E crus-galli var. crus-galli and its one ecotype. There were differential responses in percent germination and post-germination growth of the collections to butachlor (2-chloro-2', 6'-diethyl-N-butoxymethyl acetanilide).

A large number of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) in public databases have provided an opportunity for the systematic development of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. EST-SSRs derived from conserved coding sequences show considerable cross-species transferability in related species. In the present study, we assessed the utility of foxtail millet EST-SSRs in barnyard millet. A total of 312 EST-SSRs of foxtail millet were tested using 84 Echinochloa crus-galli germplasm accessions; a high rate of transferability (62%) and 46 primer sets (13%) were shown the polymorphism in barnyard millet. The 13% of functional EST-SSRs) was demonstrated between cereals and barnyard millet. SSR marker profile data were scored for the computation of pairwise distances as well as a Neighbor Joining (NJ) tree of all the genotypes. The averaged values of gene diversity (H_E) and polymorphism information content (PIC) were 0.213 and 0.179 within populations, respectively. The 84 barnyard millet germplasm accessions were divided into five different groups, which agreed well with their geographical origins. The exotic 12 accessions of India type barnyard millet (E. frumentacea) were all separated form Korean local collection genotype. The present results provide evidence of divergence between cultured and wild type barnyard, as a millet and grass. The polymorphic SSR markers indicated in this study were of great value in analysis of genetic diversity that can be further used for crop improvement through breeding.

Small wetlands in an upland matrix can support diverse vegetation composition that increase both local and regional species richness. In this study we characterize the full range of wetland vegetation in an upland forest landscape at Dumyeong-ri, Gijang-gun, Busan. This wetland index can be calculated with species data, or with community type data as performed. Classified community types were used to describe vegetation at three wetlands and adjacent areas. The communities contained 28 species of vascular plants and 28 species were identified four plant community types. The Pinus densiflora type was dominated by Pinus densiflora and contained only four species. None of the plots had high proportion of standing water. The Carpinus laxiflora type had high obligate upland species (OU) and facultative upland species (FU). The Rhododendron mucronulatum type grew in over half of the plots included Pinus densiflora and Alnus japonica. Some species bother swampy areas adjacent to site C. The Miscanthus sacchariflorus type consisted of seasonal wetlands. The three sites contained nine species with the strongest indicator species being Miscanthus sinensis var. purpurascens, Miscanthus sinensis, Echinochloa crus-galli, and Sagittaria aginashi. This type had the highest proportions of obligate wetland species. Plant species richness averaged 5.069. Shannon-Weaver index of diversity also varied among the community types (F=22.7, df=4, 115), with the types FU having significantly higher value (2.746) than the others (1.057 for type FW and 1.600 for type OU). Regional plans including all of the diverse types of wetland vegetation in upland forests will contribute substantially to the conservation of plant diversity.

Information this research an attempt was made to investigate the plant community structure and the process of its formation in the tidal area surrounding Mokpo City the examined area included the stand in Sam-Hak Do wherein sands have inflowed, and the stand in Kat-Ba-Woo which has been left as tidal soil land. Two hundred stands were sampled by making 100m line transects 5m apart and establishing 30cm$\times$30cm quadrates 10m apart on each tape. These data were used to establish frequency, cover degree, density, standing crop (g/$m^2$), contained Cl in the soil, and pH. Results of the research are as following: 1. There were 25 species of plants in the stands from Sam-Hak Do, 18 in the stands from Kat-Ba-Woo, and so 28 species in all. Regardings the importance value, the rank of dominant species is Salicornia herbacea L., Suaeda maritima Dumorties, Diplachne fusca L., Echinochola hispidula Nakai, Cyperus iria L., Setaria lutescens Hubbard in Sam-Hak Do, and Suaeda maritima Dumorties, Echinochloa hispidula Nakai, Aster tripolium L., Scripus maritimus L., Salicornia herbacea L., Diplachne fusca L., in the lands from Kat-Ba-Woo. Among them are five kinds of halophytes Salicornia herbacea L., Suaeda maritima Dumorties, Atriplex Gmelini C.A. Meyer, Aster tripolium L., and Limonium tetragonum Bullock; and two Kinds of naturalized plants Diplachan fusca L., Aster subulata. M. In the stands from Sam-Hak Do there was evidence of a secondary succession phenomena in the presence of Cyperaceae such as Cyperus liria L., Juncus decipiens Nakai, and Fimbristylis longispica Steudal, which could not be found in the stands from Kat-Ba-Woo. 2. On the number of species of vegetation, the further inland from the floodgate the higher the number; that is, the lower the content of Cl the higher the number of species. 3. On the distribution of the vegetation; comparing DFD index and Cl content, the main plants are Salicornia herbacea L., Suaeda maritima Dumorties, Atriplex gmelini C.A. Meyer, Diplachne fuscal, Echinochola hispidula Nakai where the Cl content of soil is more than 13.2%. 4. On the standing crop; Salicornia herbacea L., which has high resistance to salt, was half the total was production of 1090/$m^2$ while Suaeda maritima Dumorties was 1/4, Diplachne fusca L. 1/8, and Echinochloa the least. Analyzing the result, the research indicates that the main factor in plant community formation in tidal land is tolerance for Cl, and that a plan for utilizing the halophytes which are abundant in tidal land should be devised.

To better understand the allelopathic effect of sorghum(Sorghum vulgare L.), the inhibitory activities of water extracts of the stem, leaf and root, and of residues of the stem to major crops and weeds associated with them were evaluated. The allelopathic activity of sorghum plants was species specific, and depended on source and concentration. Germination, and shoot and root length of all test species were inhibited by the different concentrations of the stem extract. Among the crop species, radish showed the most inhibition, followed by wheat and rice. Maize was the least sensitive species. Of the weed species, Ipomoea triloba was most inhibited, followed by Echinochloa colona and Rottboellia cochinchinensis. The water extracts of leaves, stems, and roots significantly inhibited germination and seedling growth in E. colona and radish. The stem extract gave the greatest inhibitory effect on E. colona while all three extracts produced similar response in radish. In the greenhouse trial, sorghum stem residue placed on the soil surface as mulch significantly inhibited seedling growth in E. colona and radish, but not that in rice.

The experiment was carried out to obtain the basic information of weed control in lowland rice field in Gyeongbug province. The results were as follows : In weed distribution on life cycle, annual weed was occupied by 56.5% and perennials were 43.5%, respectively. In morphological distribution of weeds, grass weed was 25.2%, sedges was 12.3% and broad leaf weeds was 62.5%. In particular, weed occurrence of grass weed was much more increased than that of 1971 and 1981 year. Dominant weed species was Echinochloa crusgralli, Sagittaria trifolia, Eleocharis kuroguwai and Monochoria vaginalis in plain land, mid alpine area, and cold salty wind area. Dominant weeds was approximately similar occurrence in normal soil and poorly drained soil Gelds, but sandy soil field was not. Echinochloa crusgalli was dominant in hand transplanting and direct seeding on dry paddy field. Meanwhile, in machine transplanting, Sagittaria trifolia and Ludwigia prostrate were dominant, and occurrence of Echinochloa crusgalli was increased to delaying transplanting. As a result, major dominant weed was Echinochloa crusgalli, Sagittaria trifolia, Ludwigia prostrate, Eleocharis kuroguwai, and Monochoria vaginalis in terms of predominance.

Interspecific competition between E. colona and rice was determined over four growth stages in replacement series. No competition between the two species as measured by plant height, leaf area and dry weight occurred by 30 days after seeding (DAS) at all the density combinations studied. At 45 DAS reductions in leaf area and dry weight of E. colons due to the competition occurred at the density combinations where number of competing E. colons plant was less than that of rice. However, there was a great increase in leaf area and dry weight of E. colons at the density combination of one E. colons competing with four rice plants at 60 DAS. As the number of E. colons plants increased, the leaf area and dry weight of E. colona decreased resulting from intraspecific competition between E. colons plants. Although rice absorbed more nitrogen than E. colons up to 30 DAS, the reverse was observed from 45 DAS. A relatively small amount of phosphorous was absorbed by both rice and E. colons, but the amount of phosphorous taken up by E. colons was greater than that taken up by rice. E. colons absorbed extremely high amount of potassium when compared to rice.
