인의 식물체로 부터 토양으로의 주요 환원경로인 litter의 분해과정에 관해서 조사하였다. 즉 생활형이 다른 Miscanthus sinensis. SaSa palmalta, Artemisia princeps 및 Polygonim thunbergii 군락에 있어서 litter로서 공급되어지는 총 낙엽량과 litter 존재량으로부터 litter의 소실속도를 구하였고, 또한 군락하에 nylon mesh bag 중에 litter를 집어 넣은 litter bag 을 설치하여, 그 내용물중의 감소속도로 부터 소실속도를 구하여 비교 검토하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 최대 litter 양은 Miscanthus＞SaSa＞Artemisia＞Polygonum 의 순이었지만, 년간의 litter 공급량은 Artemisia＞Miscanthus＞Polygonum＞SaSa의 순으로 나타났다. 2. 식물체 인의 토양에의 환원속도는 Polygonum＞Artemisia＞Miscanthus＞SaSa의 순으로 나타났다. 3. litter bag 법으로 산출된 소실속도는 자연상태에서 얻은 결과보다 소실속도가 늦은 경향을 보였다. 4. litter의 질소함유율과 litter의 소실속도와의 사이에는 강한 부의 상관을 보였다.

Losses in the dry weight of leaf litter from six tree species were studied during 16 months on the forest floor in temperate deciduous forest of Mt. Cheonma in the vicinity of Seoul in Korea by using litter bag method. The decomposition rate of each leaf litter varies with each species. After 16 months elapsed, the leaf litter of Acer pseudo-sieboidianum showed the highest decomposition constant (0.82) as Olson´s decomposition constant, while that of Pinus densiflora showed the lowest decomposition constant (0.33). The decomposition constant of Quercus mongolica, Q. serrata, Betula ermani and Carpinus laxiflora showed 0.43, 0.37, 0.66 and 0.75, respectively. The decomposition constant of leaf litter was considered with temperature and precipitation which accumulated daily during each term of litter bag collection. The decomposition constant of leaf litter showed closely positive correlation with daily accumulative temperature and precipitation. The relationships between decomposition constant and the daily accumulative temperature and precipitation at each period of litter bag collection were analyzed through multi-regression analysis. The correlation coefficients as a result of multi-regression analysis in Q. mongolica, Q. serrata, P densiflora, B. ermani, C. laxiflorais and A. pseudo-sieboldianum were 0.83, 0.81, 0.69, 0.77, 0.77 and 0.62, respectively. The precipitation showed higher effect, about 10 times, on the leaf litter decomposition than the daily accumulative temperature.

팔당호에서 분포 면적과 빈도가 가장 큰 대형 수생 식물인 줄(Zizania latifolia), 갈대(Phragmites communis), 애기부들(Typha angustata) 3종의 잎과 줄기의 분해 실험을 낙엽 주머니 법(litter bag method)을 이용하여 2005년 7월에서 12월까지 실험하였다. 97일간의 실험 기간 동안 줄의 잎과 줄기는 각각 초기 건중량의 78.8%와 77.4%, 갈대의 잎과 줄기는 각각 67.5%와 43.6%, 애기부들의 잎과 줄기는 각각 55.3%와 61.9% 분해되었다. 식물체의 분해로 인한 중량 감소는 높은 질소(N) 함량과, 낮은 C/N을 보인 종과 식물체 부위에서 빠른 분해율을 나타내는 뚜렷한 상관이 있었다. 반면에 리그닌(lignin)의 함량이 높거나, lignin/N, cellulose/N이 높은 식물 종과 부위에서는 그 분해율이 늦은 것으로 나타났다. 수온과 수중 인(P)의 함량 변화와 낙엽 분해율 사이에는 양의 상관을 보였으나, $NO_3^-$-N 함량과는 음의 상관을 보였다. 더욱이 낙엽주머니의 망목의 크기를 달리한 각 낙엽주머니에서의 분해율은 차이를 나타내지 않아 이들 식물체의 분해는 대부분 갉아먹는 수생미소절지동물에 의하여 진행되는 것이 아니라 세균이나 곰팡이 등과 같은 미생물의 작용에 의하여 분해되고 있는 것으로 보이며, 특히 수중의 질소와 인(P)의 함량은 수온의 변화와 함께 이들 미생물의 소장에 영향을 주는 주요 환경요소로서 수중 식물체의 분해에 영향을 미치는 것으로 여겨진다.

The present investigation was estimated the effect of temperature, precipitatiion, and time on the decomposition of litters with litter bags of Pinus densiffora and Quercus mongolica at Gure where elevation in 50m, and at Nogodan where elevation in 1300m on Mt. Jiri. As the above results, decomposition model was proposed to relation of the environmental conditions. And was investigated the production and decomposition of litters from the stands of various forest communities in Kwangneung, Mt. Jiri and Mt. Halla. The results are as follows; The models for the decay of organic carbon (C) was as follows: $C=Coe^{-Kt}$ (limiting factor;time) $C=Coe^{-K'te}$ (limiting factor;tempedrature) $C=Coe^{-KnP}$ (limiting factor:precipitation) As observed in litter bag method, the decomposition rate of litter in Pinus densiflora was slower than that of Quercus mongolica. The higher elevation, the slower decomposition rate. The decomposition of litters at Gure where elevation in 50m was equally influenced by temperature and precipitation. But at Nogodan where elevation in 1300m was much inflenced by precipitation. The decay constant of litters was larger in hardwood forest than in coniferous forest. In the same species, the more elevatiion, the less decomposition constant. The time required for the decay of 50%, 95^, 99% of the accumulated litters in the forest floor were faster in hardwood forest than in coniferous forest. In the same species, the higher elevatiion, the longer time required.

The colonization pattern and extent of decay produced in paddy stubble by soil inhabiting mycoflora were done by using nylon net bag technique. Among the three methods used for isolation of fungi, dilution plate technique recorded the highest number of fungi followed by damp chamber and direct observation method. Nutrient availability and climatic conditions (temperature, humidity and rainfall) influenced the occurrence and colonization pattern of fungi. Maximum fungal population was recorded in October ($48.99{\times}10^4/g$ dry litter) and minimum in May ($11.41{\times}10^4/g$ dry litter). Distribution of Deuteromycetous fungi was more in comparison to Zygomycetes, oomycetes and ascomycetes. In the early stage of decomposition Mucor racemosus, Rhizopus nigricans, Chaetomium globosum and Gliocladium species were found primarly whereas at later stages of decomposition preponderance of Aspergillus candidus, Torula graminis, Cladosporiun cladosporioides and Aspergillus luchuensis was recorded.

This study examined the decomposition of blades and culms of aquatic emergent plant species, Zizania latifolia, Phragmites communis and Typha angustata, and changes in nutrient contents during decomposition. Z. latifolia, P. communis and T. angustata were the most frequently occurring species in Lake Paldang of Han River, Korea. Experiments were carried out from July 27 to December 14, 2005 in Lake Paldang using the litter bag method. The remaining masses of blade litter of each species at the end of experimental period were 21.2% of initial dry weight in Z. latifolia, 32.5% in P. communis, and 44.7% in T. angustata. In addition, the remaining mass of culm was 22.6% of initial dry mass in Z. latifolia, 56.4% in P. communis, and 38.1% in T. angustata. During the litter decomposition period, P, K, Na, and Mg concentration decreased rapidly within 10 days, but Ca and Mg concentration declined slowly. K contents remained below 10% of initial values in all litter samples retrieved during decomposition, whereas Ca and Mg concentration remained above 40% and 50% during decomposition in all three species. Na, P and Mn contents in litter varied among species and plant parts. P concentration in culms of P. communis remained at about 60% of initial concentration throughout the study, but the remaining P content in culms of Z. latifolia was only 10% of the original value at the end of the study period. The Mn concentration in blades of P. communis increased about 15-fold relative to the initial content by the end of experiment.

The total monoterpenoid content of the pine litter layer and the availability of these compounds as inhibitors/stimulators on Polysphondylium violaceum of cellular slime molds were investigated. In order to determine the several monoterpenoids in the natural environment, we examined their concentrations in fresh, senescent, and decaying needles from 3 pine species (Pinus densiflora, P. thunbergii, P. rigida) by litter bag method. Total monoterpenoid content was highest in the fresh needles, but also remained relatively high in senescent needles. The effect of monoterpenoids identified from Pinus plants on the growth of P. violaceum was studied. We tested four concentrations (1, 0.1, 0.01, and $0.001\;{\mu}g/{\mu}L$) of each compound by using a disk volatilization technique. Each compound was treated after germination of spores of P. violaceum. All of the compounds at $1\;{\mu}g/{\mu}L$ concentration had a very strong inhibitory effect on cell growth of P. violaceum. Fenchone at all concentrations, myrcene, verbenone, bornyl acetate, and limonene at low concentrations stimulated the growth of P. violaceum. These results suggest that inhibitory or enhancing effects of selected monoterpenoids depend upon the concentration of the individual compound.
