The diseased ginseng plants, their trunks fall down anil roots rot, were observed in ginseng cultivation field at Bongwha, Kyungbuk. Inoculation of the bacterium isolated from root rot lesion induced a range of symptoms on leaves, trunks and roots; The bacterium caused wilting with chlorosis and black discoloration on leaves, empty of inside trunks and rot on roots. The bacterium was identified as Serritia liquefaciens based on the morphologcal and physiological characteristics. This is the first report in Korea on roots rot of ginseng occurred by S. liquefaciens.

The saponins isolated form the herb of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer were investigated as compared with ginseng root saponins. By adopting DEAE cellulose ion exchange chromatography the pure saponins were isolated from Korean ginseng roots and leaves. The ginseng root and leaf saponins showed some differences in the pattern of the two-dimensional thin layer chromatogram. The ratio of panaxadiol to panaxatriol in the saponins was 1.7 in the roots and 3.5 in the leaves. Infra-red spectrum of ginseng leaf saponins isolated by liquid chromatography was identical with that of root saponins.

The incitant of soft rot on burley tobacco leaves in the curing vinylhouse was identified as Erwinia carotovra subsp. carotovora on the basis of its physiological characters. The bacterium yew best at $25^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$, but no growth was detectable at $40^{\circ}C$ in the nutrient broth for 24 hours period. Burley tobacco leaves inoculated with the bacteria (Ecc) produced typical soft rot lesions when the incubation temperature was 25 to $30^{\circ}C$ and the relative humidity was more than 8075, however, the lesion development was suppressed when the temperature was $40^{\circ}C$ and the relative humidity was below 80%. Significant negative correlation was found between hanging space in the curing vinylhouse and the incidence of soft rot on the tobacco leaves harvested in a rainy day regardless of streptomycin treatment.

This study was aimed at finding out the effect of herbicide quinclorac (3, 7-dichloro-8- quinoline carbxylic acid) on tobacco culture in paddy soil. Herbicides quinclorac(Pozol, Pulta and Tomata) was randomly applied to subdivided paddy soil in Sep. 1992, and tobacco seedlings were transplanted to the field when seedling averaged 2cm in height in April 1993. Experiment plots were divided into non - treatment, standard(3kg/10a) and two times(6kg/10a) in amounts for each three herbicides. The symptoms of damage from herbicide were sighted when the plants had developed 8-9 leaves at 30 day after transplanting in standard amount plots, and when the plants had developed 4-5 leaves at 20 days after transplanting in two times treatments. The new leaves from damaged plants were bended out, and leaf color changed from green to dark - green, and then gradually advanced to abnormal narrow leaves. Standard treatments of herbicides showed a decrease of 18% in price per kg, 18% in yield and 33% in value per 10a than those of non - treatment, while two times treatments showed a decrease of 33%, 29%, 52% compared with non - treatment, respectively.

The field evaluation were conducted on dihaploid progenies derived from anther culture of F1 plant of Drama x Sohyang (N. tabacum L.) The mean values of agronomic and chemical traits of dihaploids such as Nicotine, length/width, plant height, Leaf length, leaves per plant and Yield were greater than those of tar parents. The correlation coefficient of dihaploids were similar to those of conventional lines and varieties. In path analysis, in relating yield components to yield, leaves per plant and leaf width had a direct effect on Yield, but the other components such as plant height, leaf length and days to flowering influenced Yield indirect way.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of the mulberry leaves sprayed with filtered solutions and non-filtered solutions of ginseng, on the various practical characteristics of the silkworm (Bombyx mori) in spring, summer and late autumn in 1971, and spring and autumn in 1972. 1. There was no evidence that the various ginseng concentrations influence the practical characteristics in the silkworms, according to the different instars and rearing seasons. 2. Non-filtered solutions of ginseng have a bad effect upon the silkworm characteristics, especially in pupation ratio and reelable cocoon ratio.

This study was carried out to obtain information of the photosynthetic rate at various temperature and light intensity, stomata, chlorophyll, specific leaf weight, characteristics of aerial part and root in ginseng new cultivars developed by pure line selection. The light saturation point of leaves in new cultivars and Jakyungjong were 15,000 lux, and the optimum air temperature on the photosynthesis of new cultivars and Jakyungjong were 20$\^{C}$. The photosynthetic rates were increased in order of Jakyungjong, Gopoong, Chunpoong and Yunpoong. The dark respiration rate of leaves in ginseng cultivars were increased according to the increasing of temperature, and the dark respiration rate of leaves of Yunpoong was the highest among cultivars. The specific leaf weight (SLW) were increased in order of Jakyungjong, Yunpoong, Gopoong, Chunpoong, but total chlorophyll contents were not different among cultivars. Stomata frequency of Yunpoong was the highest being 69.2ea among cultivars, while the length of stomata was reverse. Yunpoong was superior in aerial part among ginseng cultivars : the number of stem was 1.8ea, the number of palmately leaves was 7.7ea, the number of leaflets was 41.0ea, leaf area was 12.3 dm$^2$ The root weight were increased in order of Jakyungjong, Gopoong, Chunpoong and Yunpoong. Chunpoong and Gopoong hove good root shape the length of tap root in Chunpoong and Gopoong were the longest being 6.5 cm and 6.8 cm respectively, but that in Yunpoong was the shortest being 4.4 cm.

In August of 2011, a wilting disease of ginseng was observed at Bongwha, Gyeongbuk province, Korea. Affected plants initially show withering symptoms on leaves of ginseng. As the disease progresses, withering leaves spread downward, eventually encompassing the whole plant. Leaves lose vigor but remain pale green. Symptoms of roots were brown, and soft rots characterized by moist and watery decay of the whole ginseng root, which initiated as small brown, water-soaked lesions of hairy roots and enlarged to the entire roots. The causal organism isolated from the infected roots was identified as Serratia plymuthica based on its physiological and biochemical characteristics, by cellular fatty acid composition (GC-FAME), the utilization of carbon sources (BioLog System), and 16S rRNA sequence of the isolated bacterium were 99% homologous to those of Serratia plymuthica strains. Artificial inoculation of the bacterium produced the same brown or soft rot symptoms on the ginseng roots, from which the same bacterium was isolated. This is the first report of bacterial root rot caused by the Serratia plymuthica in ginseng in Korea. Serratia plymuthica has been used as antagonistic microorganism for biological control on several crop plants. But it was proved pathogen of ginseng at humid condition in this study.
