Korean folk medicine ‘Bong Seon Wha Dai’ has been used to cure constipation and acute gastritis by meat. The botanical origin of the crude drug has never been studied pharmacogostically. To clarify the botanical origin of Bong Seon Wha Dai. the morphological and anatomical characteristics of Impatiens species growing in Korea, i.e. I. balsamina L., I. noli-tangere L.. I. textori Miq., I. textori Miq. forma. pallenscens Hara were studied. (omitted)

This study was conducted to know the effect of cultivation area with different sea levels on essential oil content and its composition and content of major active compounds in Valerian fauriei var. dasycarpa HARA and Valerian officinalis L. The total contents of essential oil were not different according to the locality in both valerian, however, its compositions were varied. The major components in V. fauriei were detected bornyl acetate and sesquiterpene alcohol in three cultivation areas. The major compounds were borneol, borney acetate, ${\beta}\;-sesquiohellandrene$ in V. officinalis other. Among the valepotrate components known as major pharaceutically active components in Europe and Nepal valerian, valtrate was detected in a small amount in V. fauriei, but its quantity was not changed according to the cultivation area.

A pot experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of boron on the growth, symptom, yield, and content of boron in Perilla(Perilla frutescens var. japonica HARA), Melon(Cucumis melo L.) and Cucumber(Cucumis sativus L.). The results obtained are as follows. Perilla. melon and cucumber uptake a lot of boron from the soil, and toxic effects of boron result in leaf tip yellowing by progressive necrosis. Yield of perilla, melon and cucumber are decreased at the $3{\sim}5mg\;kg^{-1}$, $5{\sim}10mg\;kg^{-1}$ of boron applicated in soil, respectively. Boron content in the leaf is the highest among various parts plant, and the tip and margin of the leaf contained more boron than central part of the leaf. Boron applicated was moved and accumulated to the plant and soil.

This study was carried out to investigate the compositions of fatty acids, inorganic components and volatile organic acids from Korean valerian roots, Valeriana fauriei var. dasycarpa Hara and Valeriana officinalis var. latifolia Miq. The contents of total lipids ranged from 3.7 % to 4.5% and the major fatty acids were linoleic, linolenic and palmitic acid. Ash contents ranged from 4.3% to 6.3%. and the contents of Na, Fe, Zn and Cu showed some quantitative differences depending upon grown region or species. Fourty components were identified from acidic fraction of dichloromethane extract of V. fauriei var. dasycarpa Hara, of which the major components were 3-methyl butanoic, dimethoxy-2-propenoic. 3, 4-dimethoxy benzoic and 3-methyl pentanoic acid.

The effects of water temperature, salinity and irradiance on the growth of harmful algae Chattonella marina isolated from Gamak Bay in South Sea, Korea were investigated. C. marina was able to grow in temperatures of $15-30^{\circ}C$ and salinities of 10-35 psu. Maximum specific growth rate (0.64/day) was observed with combination of $25^{\circ}C$ and 25 psu. Optimal growth (${\ge}70%$ of maximum specific growth rate) was obtained with all salinities of the above $20^{\circ}C$. This result indicated that C. marina is a stenothermal of the high water temperature and euryhaline organism. C. marina was did not grow at irradiance ${\le} 10{\mu}mol$ photons/($m^2\;s$). Photoinhibition did not occur at $300{\mu}mol$ photons/($m^2\;s$), which was the maximum irradiance used in this study. The irradiance-growth curve was described as ${\mu}=0.78(I-11.4)/(I+34.1)$ at $25^{\circ}C$ and 25 psu. The half-saturation photon flux density (PFD) ($K_s$) was $56.9{\mu}mol$ photons/($m^2\;s$) and compensation PFD ($I_c$) was $11.4{\mu}mol$ photons/($m^2\;s$). The result of the present study indicate that C. marina has advantage physiological characteristic to the interspecific competition at the embayment and costal areas of South and West Sea, Korea in summer.

Dried parts of the two species are difficult to distinguish morphologically, thus Codonopsis radix has been sold instead of Adenophorae radix in herbal medicine market. Therefore, this study was conducted to develop the genetic marker through the examination of the phylogenetic relationships between two Adenophora triphylla(Thunb.) A. DC. var. japonica Hara, two Adenophora radiatifolia Nakai, five Codonopsis lanceolata(Sieb. et Zucc)Trautv. using RAPD analysis. Fifty decarmer oligonucleotide primers were screened for the RAPD analysis, and four primers generated distinct RAPD markers specific to Adenophorae radix and Codonopsis radix. Based on the RAPD patterns, the genetic relationships between three herbal medicine were analyzed by UPGMA method. As a result, Adenophorae radix and Codonopsis radix were classified into two major subgroups on the basis of the genetic similarity coefficient. The specific RAPD patterns generated by the selected primers were reproducible from dried materials. Furthermore, the specific RAPD patterns were produced from the mixture of dried roots of A. triphylla and C. lanceolata. These results prone the usefulness of the RAPD analysis for the discrimination of pure materials from the mixtures of A. triphylla and C. lanceolata.

This study was carried out to investigate yield loss due to soybean leaf spot disease caused by Cercospora sojina Hara and to determine the economic threshold level. The investigations revealed highly significant correlations between disease severity (diseased leaf area) and yield components (pod number per plant, total grain number per plant, total grain weight per plant, percent of ripened grain, weight of hundred seed, and yield). The correlation coefficients between leaf spot severity and each component were -0.90, -0.90, -0.92, -0.99, -0.90 and -0.94, respectively. The yield was inversely proportional to the diseased leaf area increased. The regression equation, yield prediction model, between disease severity (x) and yield (y) was obtained as y = -3.7213x + 354.99 ($R^2$ = 0.9047). Based on the yield prediction model, economic injury level and economic threshold level could be set as 3.3% and 2.6% of diseased leaf area of soybean.

Leaf quality and fatty acid compositions of collected perilla related genus and species germplasms such as Perilla frutescens var. japonica Hara, Perilla frutescens var. acuta Kudo, Perilla frutescens var. crispa Decaisne, Perilla frutescens var. for viridis Makino, Mosla punctulata Nakai, Mosla japonica Maxim, Mosla dianthera Maxim were analysized. The number of leaves per tiller and leaf size of perilla germplasms were more and bigger than those of mosla germplasms. Aroma degree of mosla germplasms was higher than aroma degree of perilla germplasms. Mosla germplasms could be utilized in the breeding for high aroma perilla lines. Otherwise, the softness of perilla germplasms was higher than that of mosla germplasms. In case of oil and protein contents, perilla germplasms was higher than mosla germplasms, however compositions ratio of fatty acid, especially linolenic acid of mosla germplasms was higher than that of perilla germplasms, therefore mosla germplasms could be utilized as breeding materials with high linolenic acid for industrial oil. The linolenic acid with excellent quality and unsaturated fatty acid showed negative correlation with oil content, protein content and saturated fatty acids.
