This study was carried out to find the possibility of use of Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME) for extracting the volatile aroma compounds in the five aromatic plants (Agastache rugosa O. Kuntze, Mentha arvensis Linne, Thymus quinquecostatus Celakovsky, Elsholtzia splendens Nakai, Schizonepta tenuifolia Briquet) belongs to the Labiatae. In the result of the analysis, the volatile aroma compounds were mainly composed monoterpene alcohol (linanol, menthol, ${\alpha}-terpineol$, borneol), monoterpene ketone (limonene, menthone) and sesquiterpene (trans-caryophyllene,${\delta}-cadinene)$. The volatile aroma compounds of Agastache rugosa O. Kuntze and Mentha arvensis Linne were extracted by SPME more identified than the SDE. However, Schizonepta tenuifolia Briquet more identified by the SDE and in Elsholtzia splendens Nakai similar to the SDE. Especially, the SPME showed the sesquiterpene contents was more than the SDE. The major volatile aroma compounds were difference but the composition of those between the SPME and the SDE showed no difference. Within the results, the SPME showed the most convenient and a rapid extraction method to analysis of the volatile aroma compounds.

Morphogenetic responses were investigated by culturing embryo and leaf explants of Korean wild type tea plant, Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze. Induction of direct somatic embryogenesis as well as adventitious and/or axillary shoots was obtained from mature zygotic embryo cultures on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium having 5 to $20\mu\textrm{M}$cytokinin a lone. Morphogenetic response was decreased dramatically by the addition of auxins tested. One hundred percent of induced and isolated shoots formed roots after four weeks of culture on half-strength MS or quarter-strength Schenk and Hildebrandt (SH) media supplemented with $10\mu\textrm{M}$indole-3-butyric acid (IBA). Immature zygotic embryos were shown to be a suitable explant for embryogenic callus formation in the presence of 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid(2, 4-D) in basal medium. Mature zygotic embryo originated leaves were used to test their ability for mophogenesis by incorporating plant growth regulators such as IBA, naphthyl-1-acetic acid (NAA), and 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). Apparently, the morphogenetic responses of the cultured explant sources on the types and/or levels of plant growth regulators tested were observed visually.

This study was conducted to investigate the growth of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) and Korean mint (Agastache rugosa Kuntze) with microbubble in a closed-type plant production system (CPPS) with a deep flow technique (DFT). Lettuce and Korean mint were grown in CPPS for 23 days. Microbubble was treated for 5 minutes daily at 9:00, 13:00, and 17:00 for 16 days. The leaf length, leaf width, leaf area, and fresh and dry weights of lettuce and Korean mint were significantly lower in microbubble than in the control. The total root length, root surface area, and the number of root tips of lettuce and Korean mint were significantly lower in the microbubble than in the control. In the case of average root diameter, there was no difference between the treatments of lettuce. However, Korean mint significantly increased in thickness in the microbubble treatment, indicating variations among the different crops. The results of the research indicated that microbubble treatment in the DFT inhibited plant growth by inducing abiotic stress in lettuce and Korean mint.

The fruit and seeds of Butea monosperma (Lam) Kuntze (Fabaceae) are useful in piles, anthelmintic, eye diseases, and inflammation in the Indian system of medicine. Hence, we have evaluated the anti-inflammatory activity of the fixed oil, mixed fatty acids, and unsaponifiable matter of B. monosperma against carrageenan-induced paw oedema and cotton pellet-induced granuloma in rats. The fixed oil, mixed fatty acids, and unsaponifiable matter of the oil exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activity on the tested experimental animal models. The unsaponifiable matter of the oil produced higher protection compared to fixed oil and mixed fatty acids. Phytochemical analysis of the fixed oil revealed the presence of steroids and terpenoids while unsaponifiable matter of the oil showed the presence of ${\beta}-sitosterol$. Also, four fatty acids were identified in the fixed oil by gas liquid chromatography. The anti-inflammatory activity of the fixed oil may be due to unsaponifiable matter or combination of unsaponifiable matter and mixed fatty acids.

SH2 domains and their associated catalytic or noncatalytic proteins constitute critical signal transduction targets for drug discovery. Grb2 associates with phosphotyrosine sites of the activated receptors or Shc via their SH2 domain to link receptor tyrosine kinases to ras signalling. Blocking of the Grb2-Shc complex may be to intervene the oncogenic signal transduction pathways and to develop a new antitumor drug. In the search for blockers of Grb2 SH2-Shc interaction, Lutein, a family of carotenoids, was isolated from the extract of the leaf of Agastache rugosa O. Kuntze as SH2 domain antagonists. The $IC_{50}$ of Lutein against Grb2-Shc binding was $6.8\;{\mu}M$.

서양잔디중 난지형 잔디에 속하는 세인트 어거스틴그래스에서 암모늄태 질소와 질산태 질소질 비료의 시비가 브라운팻치 병 발생에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 본 실험이 수행되었다. 포장에서 재배되고 있는 세인트 어거스틴그래스를 작경 10cm의 플러그를 굴취하여 플라스틱 포트에 이식한 후 뿌리의 활착을 위하여 온실내에서 한달간 재배하였고, 50kg N/ha의 성분비율에 맞추어서 균의 접종 1일전에 시비를 하였다. 잔디포장에서 분리한 Rhizoctonia solani균을 agar위에서 배양시킨 후 균이 배양되어 있는 agar block 을 떼어서 태운 perennial ryegrass에 접종시켰다. 감염된 perennial ryegrass를 다시금 세인트 어거스틴그래스위에다 치상시켜서 잔디로의 접종을 꾀하였다. 그 결과 암모늄태 질소비료나 질산태 질소비료 그리고 무시비상태의 잔디에서의 병발생간에는 유의차가 인정되지 않았으나 질산화 억제제를 처리하여 암모늄상태의 질소 성분이 질산태로 전환되는 것을 억제시킨 구에서는 타처리구에 비하여 6~9배의 발생율을 보였다. 따라서 잔디의 시비와 병발생을 연관시켜 볼 때 암모늄태 질소비료 와 질산태 질소비료 공히 큰 차이는 없으나, 다만 질산태로 변한 후의 질소양분의 토양용탈로 인한 소모를 억제시키기 위하여 사용되는 질산화 억제제는 상당량의 암모늄태 질소성분을 상당 기간동안 유지시키기 때문에 브라운팻치 병발생에 영향을 주므로 그 사용시기에 있어서 신중을 기하여야 하겠다.

Comparative drought resistances of 11 perennial warm-season turfgrasses were evaluated in the field after withholding irrigation for 48 days in summer I and 57 days in summer II. There were significant variations among the grasses in their drought resistances. From two years study of field shoot recovery from drought stress, the relative rankings among the 11 warm-season turfgrasses was as follows. 'Arizona Common' and 'Texturf 10' bermudagrasses [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.], 'Tifgreen' hybrid bermudagrass [C. dactylon (L.) Pers. ${\times}$ C. transvaalensis Davy], and 'Georgia Common' centipedegrass [Eremochloa ophiuroides (Munro.) Mack.] possessed good drought resistances, whereas 'Texas Common' St. Augustinegrass [Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze] and 'Tifway' hybrid bermudagrass [Cyndon dactylon (L.) Pers ${\times}$ C. transvaalensis Davy] possessed poor drought resistances. 'Texas Common' buffalograss [Buchloe dactyloides (Nutt.) Engelm.], 'Pensacola' bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flugge.), and 'Adalayd' seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Swartz), 'Meyer' zoysiagrass (Zoysia japonica Steud.), 'Emerald' zoysiagrass (Z. japonica Steud. ${\times}$ Z. tenuifolia Willd. ex Trin.) were found to rank intermediate. Visual leaf firing showed the highest correlation (r=-0.84) to shoot recovery from drought stress. Visual leaf rolling (r=-0.59) and canopy-air temperature differential (r=-0.64) also showed very significant correlations, whereas leaf water potential (r=0.54) showed relatively lower correlation.

Taxonomic account is given to the five species of Scytosiphonaceae, Colpomenia peregrina (Sauvageau) Hamel, Endarachne binghamiae J. Agardh, Hydroclathrus clathratus (C. Agardh) Howe, Petalonia fascia (O. F. Muller) Kuntze, and Scytosiphon lomentaria (Lyngbye) Link, collected from Ullungdo Island, Korea. C. peregrina, introduced for the first time in Korea, is similar to C. sinuosa (Roth) Derbes et SolieI in outer appearance but is distinguished by absence of cuticle over the plurilocular sporangial sori. E. binghamiae accords well with American plants but varies in height and width of the thallus according to seasons. H. clathratus has small cortical cells and large clear medullary cells. P fascia is characterized by one to two celled small cortical layer and two to four celled large medullary layer. S. lomentaria shows variation in gross morphology, especially in height and width of thallus according to seasons.easons.

A protocol has been developed for differentiation of adventitious shoots directly from leaf segments of Tetragonia tetragonoides O. Kuntze. Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 2 mg/L $N^6-benzyladenine$ (BA) and 0.5 mg/L ${\alpha}-naphthaleneacetic$ acid (NAA) supported the induction of adventitious shoots from leaf explants. Adventitious shoots were multiplied by subculturing on the double strength MS (2MS) medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L NAA and 2 mg/L BA. Shoots were rooted on MS basal medium without any growth regulators.
