  • The aim of the present study was the evaluation of methods for estimating the vegetation information in the field on the basis of spectral reflectance measured farm field, in particular the estimation of Leaf Area Index(LAI). Variability in tissue optical properties was wavelength-dependent. For rice and bean, the lowest variation was in the visible spectral region and the highest in the near-infrared. The structural attributes of ecosystems determine the relative contribution of tissue and canopy factors that drive variation in a reflectance signal.

  • Acifluorfen-tolerant callus lines of Solanum ptycanthum were isolated by stepwise selection. Growth of the unselected line was completely inhibited at 0.5 uM. while some selected lines grew at 8 uM acifluorfen. Twenty-two of twenty-five acifluorfen-tolerant callus lines regenerated shoots. Many of the regenerated somaclones were variants, differing in leaf shape, leaf color, number of flower parts, flower color, and fertility. The acifluorfen tolerant S. ptycanthum callus lines differed.

  • Present studies were carried out to clarify the variation of agronomic characters of Panax ginseng (violet-stem variant and yellow-berry variant) and Panax quinquefolium (American ginseng). The variations of stem diameter. stem length, leaf width, root diameter. and root length of Panax quinquefolium were found to be more variable as compared with those of Panax ginseng. As for the variations of agronomic characters of Panax ginseng. violet-stem variant was more variable than yellow-berry variant. In Panax ginseng as well as Panax quinquefolium . the variability of stem length. leaf length, and root length was high. while the other agronomic characters showed comparatively low variability.

  • This research was conducted to compare the dry matter production and the yield productivity among nine soybean cultivars by measuring the photosynthetic ability of the middle and lower leaves at the flowering and the seed development stages. The leaf greenness(SPAD value) were ranged as 32-42 at the flowering stage. Also, They were ranged as 25-40 and 38-51 at the fifth leaf and the seventh leaf, respectively. The photosynthetic ability at the flowering and the seed development stage showed significant differences among soybean cultivars, and the photosynthetic ability at the seed development stage showed higher difference among cultivars than the flowering stage. The variation of the photosynthetic ability at the flowering and the seed development stage also was significant among cultivars. The light saturation point at the flowering stage was about 1500 $\mu$mol $m^{-2}$ $s^{-1}$ PAR, and the seed development stage was about 1000 $\mu$mol $m^{-2}$ $s^{-1}$ PAR. The photosynthesis showed the high negative correlation with the leaf area and the positive correlation with the leaf area ratio. Also, photosynthesis at seed development stage showed positive correlation with grain yields but there was not significant between photosynthesis and yields at flowering stage..

  • Chromosomal variation was investigated in the female and male somaclones regenerated from the leaf segment culture of Rumex acetosa L. Difference in phenotype depending on the sexuality was not observed. In female somaclones, 21 among 25 somaclones carried the same chromosome complements (2n=14) with wildtype and others were tetraploids (2n=28), Considerable chromosomal variation was found in male somaclones. Only 4 among 20 somaclones carried normal chromosome number (2n=15) and 13 somaclones were aneuploids.

  • In Vietnam, Celastrus hindsii Benth, a medicinal plant rich in secondary metabolites, has been used to alleviate distress caused by ulcers, tumors, and inflammation for generations. The occurrence of two phenotypes, Broad Leaf (BL) and Narrow Leaf (NL), has raised questions about the selection of appropriate varieties for conservation and crop improvement to enhance medicinal properties. This study examined molecular differences in C. hindsii by comparing protein profiles between the NL and BL types using 2D-PAGE and MS. Peptide sequences and proteins were identified by matching MS data against the MSPnr100 databases and verified using the MultiIdent tool on ExPASy and the Blast2GO software. Our results revealed notable variations in protein abundance between the NL and BL proteomes. Selected proteins were confidently identified from 12 protein spots, thereby highlighting the molecular variation between NL and BL proteomes. Upregulated proteins in BL were found to be associated with flavonoid and amino acid biosynthesis as well as nuclease metabolism, which probably attributed to the intraspecific variations. Several bioactive proteins identified in this study can have applications in cancer therapeutics. Therefore, the BL phenotype characterized by healthier external morphological features has higher levels of bioactive compounds and could be better suited for medicinal use.

  • The gesneriaceous perennial plant Titanotrichum oldhamii has beautiful foliage and attractive bright yellow flowers. However, breeding of T. oldhamii by conventional sexual hybridization may be difficult because sexual reproduction of this species is very rare. In the present study, plant regeneration systems via both direct and indirect formation of adventitious shoots from leaf explants were established as the first step toward breeding T. oldhamii by using biotechnological techniques. Adventitious shoots were formed efficiently on medium containing $0.1mg\;l^{-1}$ benzyladenine. Histological observation showed that shoot formation on this medium occurred directly from leaf epidermal cells without callus formation. On the other hand, leaf explants formed calluses on medium containing $0.1mg\;l^{-1}$ 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. The calluses could be maintained by monthly subculturing to fresh medium of the same composition. When the calluses were transferred to plant growth regulator-free medium, they formed adventitious shoots. Directly and indirectly formed shoots rooted well on medium containing $0.1mg\;l^{-1}$ indole-3-butyric acid. Plantlets thus obtained were successfully acclimatized and grew vigorously in the greenhouse. Flow cytometry analysis indicated that no variation in the ploidy level was observed in plants regenerated via direct shoot formation, whereas chromosome doubling occurred in several plants regenerated via indirect shoot formation. Regenerated plants with the same ploidy level as the mother plants showed almost the same phenotype as the mother plants, whereas chromosome-doubled plants showed apparent morphological alterations: they had small and crispate flowers, and round and deep green leaves.

  • Sixteen Atractylodes japonica Koidz. accessions were collected in Jeonbuk, Kyeongnam, Kangwon and Kyeonggi province, and their quantitative characteristics were compared with each other. The relationship of variation between Atractylodes japonica Koidz. accessions was also investigated by means of multivariate analysis. Hamyang 1 accession had the most desirable quantitative characteristics among the accessions: plant height was 86.2cm, number of leaves, 117.2 and number of stems, 34.3. Sudo 1 accession had 12 stems, the most among the accessions. The length of leaf margin serras found in all of them was on average 1.6mm. Most accessions had simple or palmately compound leaf with oval or elliptical type of the leaf shape. The accessions could be classified into three groups by average linkage cluster method. The most remote relationship was found between Group 1 containing Jinan 1, Jinan 2 and Group 3 containing Jeongsu, and Geoje.
