The efficient production of glucose isomerase (G. I0.) produced form Arthrobacter sp. L-3 was studied. The optimum culture time of the enzyme was 40hr. The maximum enzyme activity was found at glucose concentration 1%. G. I. activity did not affect inoculum size. The glucose isomerase activity was strongly influenced by the addition of glucose.

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) was detected from Kimchi by biological and serological assay 5. Kimchi samples three month after cooked were collected, and were inoculated on N. tabacum var. Burley 21 and NC 95. Out of 33 samples, 6 showed typical symptoms induced by TMV, local necrotic lesions on Burley 21 and mosaic on NC 95. All saps from tobacco leaves showed the mosaic symptom reacted positively against TMV antiserum by agar gel double diffusion test. Based on the results, the Kimchi is considered as one of the important inoculum sources in Korea.

Three kinds of inoculation methods, capillary, root cutting and dipping were compared for an efficient way to screening the resistant tobacco variety against bacterial wilt, Ralstonia solanacearum. The pricking a capillary tube contained the pathogenic bacterial suspension(10$^{7}$ cfu/$m\ell$) to an axillary bud of each tobacco plant showed different resistance well between varieties. The less period was required in inoculating work and in disease development for the inoculation method used with capillary tube than for two other inoculation methods tested also.

Soybean Whetzelinia rot caused by Whetzelinia sclerotiorum was observed in Jinju area. The diseased soybean plants showed withering and sudden collapse under field conditions. Diseased parts exhibited numerous black, irregularly-shaped scleratia embedded in dense white cottonly mycelium on tissue and in the pith of diseased stems. A sclerotium in the moist sand produced several apothecia under laboratary condition. The primary inoculum was supposed to originate from overwintered sclerotia of soil and soybean debris.

Optimization of chemicals in the large scale sea water medium and inoculum for biomass and natural colourants production in the marine cyanobacteria, Phomidium tenue BDU 46241 (phycoerythrin producer) and P.valderianum BDU 30501 (phycocyanin producer) was carried out by experiments in L8 orthogonal array. Mathematical analysis revealed the significance of these factors. The factor(s) that critically control the yield varied with the organism and the end-product further, the desirable level of these factors between the normal and a higher level tested was identified and improved media were evolved. In both cyanobacteria, higher level of $K_2$$HPO_4$, $NaNO_3$ and inoculum with normal level of ferric ammonium citrate was found to be desirable for biomass production and additionally, higher level of $MgSO_4$ for pigment production. The level of other factors varied with the organism and the end-product. Confirmation experiments showed that the clues obtained based on mathematical experimentation are valid. In P.tenue, the medium optimized for biomass production increased the yield of biomass by 495% and the medium optimized for phycoerythrin production increased the yield of biomass by 408% with 30% increase in phycoerythrin content of the biomass. Similarly in P.valderianum, the medium optimized for biomass production increased the yield of biomass by 224% and the medium optimized for phycocyanin production increased the yield of biomass by 143% with 44% increase in phycocyanin content of the biomass.

This experiment was carried out to screen the aeroponically grown host plants suitable for the mass propagation of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculum and clarify the effect of P levels in nutrient solution on the growth of aeroponically grown sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.), AMF infection, and mass propagation of mycorrhizal spores, etc. Amount of biomass of host plant became higher, as the P levels in nutrient solutions increased from 5 to 20 M. AMF infection rates in mycorrhizal roots increased in higher P levels in nutrient solution, and decreased in lower parts of mycorrhizal roots by about 18.6-26.0%. About 586 mycorrhizal spores per 1 g fresh root were formed at 16 weeks after inoculation of mycorrhizal inoculum. Total of 830,479 mycorrhizal spores were propagated in each plot.

In this study, the physical factors for amylase production by Arthrobacter sp. were optimized using response surface methodology(RSM). Antarctic microorganism Arthrobacter sp. PAMC 27388 was obtained from the Polar and Alpine Microbial Collection(PAMC) at the Korea Polar Research Institute. This microorganism was confirmed for the excretion of amylase with Lugol's solution. The amylase activity was after flask culture was as low as 1.66 mU/L before optimization. The physical factors including the inoculum volume, the initial culture pH, and the medium volume were chosen to be optimized for the enhanced amylase production. The calculated results using RSM indicate that the optimal physical factors were 2.49 mL inoculum volume, 6.85 pH and 42.87 mL medium volume with a predicted amylase production of 2.84 mU/L. The experimentally obtained amylase activity was 2.50 mU/L, which was a 150% increase compared to the level before optimization.

Background: This study aimed to develop a biocontrol system for ginseng root rot caused by Fusarium cf. incarnatum. Methods: In total, 392 bacteria isolated from ginseng roots and various soils were screened for their antifungal activity against the fungal pathogen, and a bacterial isolate (B2-5) was selected as a promising candidate for the biocontrol because of the strong antagonistic activity of the bacterial cell suspension and culture filtrate against pathogen. Results: The bacterial isolate B2-5 displayed an enhanced inhibitory activity against the pathogen mycelial growth with a temperature increase to $25^{\circ}C$, produced no pectinase (related to root rotting) an no critical rot symptoms at low [$10^6$ colony-forming units (CFU)/mL] and high ($10^8CFU/mL$) inoculum concentrations. In pot experiments, pretreatment with the bacterial isolate in the presumed optimal time for disease control reduced disease severity significantly with a higher control efficacy at an inoculum concentration of $10^6CFU/mL$ than at $10^8CFU/mL$. The establishment and colonization ability of the bacterial isolates on the ginseng rhizosphere appeared to be higher when both the bacterial isolate and the pathogen were coinoculated than when the bacterial isolate was inoculated alone, suggesting its target-oriented biocontrol activity against the pathogen. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the pathogen hyphae were twisted and shriveled by the bacterial treatment, which may be a symptom of direct damage by antifungal substances. Conclusion: All of these results suggest that the bacterial isolate has good potential as a microbial agent for the biocontrol of the ginseng root rot caused by F. cf. incarnatum.
