The objective of this study was to test germinability of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) varieties at low temperatures. Seeds of III sesame varieties representing different maturity groups and countries were tested at four different temperatures between $10^{\circ}C$ and $16^{\circ}C$. Average germination percentages of III varieties were 92%, 57% and 3.3% at $16^{\circ}C, 14{\circ}C$ and $12^{\circ}C$.respectively. The highest daily germination percentage was observed after 4 days of incubation at $16^{\circ}C$, while it was after 8 days at $14^{\circ}C$. A regression analysis indicated that $15^{\circ}C$ as the minimum temperature for satisfactory germination in field conditions. In general, Korean local collections had better germinability than introduced varieties from 6 countries at different latitudes. 'San dong', a Korean local cultivar. showed the highest germination percentage (24%) at $12^{\circ}C$ when the average germination percentage of all varieties was as low as $3.3^{\circ}C$. Early maturity varieties germinated better at $12^{\circ}C$ and $14^{\circ}C$ than medium or late maturity groups, but no difference was observed at $16^{\circ}C$. Although larger seeds showed better germinability within a variety, there seems to be no relationship between seed size and germinability in sesame.in sesame.

This study was conducted to determinate the optimum times of transplanting and harvest for enhancing the fresh leaf yield and colorant level of an indigo crop, Persicaria tinctoria H. Gross, containing the blue dye indigo. Two cultivars, Naju Local and a new cultivar, NaramBlue, were transplanted 5 times from May 30 to July 10 at an interval of 10 days, and all of experiment plots harvested on Aug. 23 in Muan, the south area of Korea. As transplanting time was delayed, fresh leaf yield were maximum at earliest transplanting (May 30) and then decreased, while Niram (blue dye extract) and indigo content of fresh leaf remained almost constant though showed a small variation. Also, two cultivars transplanted on May 23 were harvested 5 times from Jul. 20 to Sept. 20 at an interval of 15 days. As harvest time was delayed, plant height, No. of first branches, and fresh leaf yield changed increasingly, while Niram content was increased to Aug. 20 and then decreased slightly. Indigo level increased largely to Aug. 5, and then continuously decreased with more delayed harvest. These tendencies of changes in fresh leaf yield and colorant level with different transplanting and harvest times were shown similarly in both cultivars. The results indicate that early transplanting before May 30 and harvest in early August will be appropriate for improving fresh leaf yield and colorant level.

An isolate of Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) was isolated from potato cultivar ‘Chubak’ showing vein clearing and mild mosaic at Namhae in Korea. This isolate, TMV-St, was differentiated from other tobamoviruses based on biological properties, serological relationships and nucleotide sequence analyses of coat protein genes. TMV-St caused typical symptoms on four indicator plants as compared to the tobamovirus of TMV-U1, Pepper mild mottle virus (PMMoV), and Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV), which caused economic losses in Solanaceous vegetables, tomato, pepper, and eggplant. Remarkably, the TMV-St induced distinctly different symptom of systemic chlorotic spots on Chenophodium murale. On C. murale, Gomphorena globosa, and Nic-otiana rustica, the four viruses were classed by the virulence of systemic or local infections. In serological test TMV-St antiserum showed a precipitation line with each other tabamovirus. The CP gene of TMV-St contain 477 nucleotides, and the nucleotides sequence was the most similar to that of TMV-U1.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of fertilizers on yield and paeonol content of Paeonia moutan Sims according to cultivation years. Tested variety was a local cultivar and fertilizer treatments used were compost (3, 000kg/10a), N-P-K (10-10-10kg/10a) fertilizer, fowl dropping manure (100kg/10a), organic fertilizer (200kg/10a) and non-fertilizer. Root yield increased by 12% in N-P-K fertilizer, 18% in compost, 22% in fowl dropping manure and 26% in organic fertilizer treatment compared with non-fertilizer. Increment rate of root yield according to cultivation years from 3 to 6 year cultivation was highest in 5 year cultivation. Paeonol content was highest of 3.08% at October harvest and 3.63% in the fowl dropping manure treatment. Paeonol content was higher at longer cultivation year, but increment rate of paeonol content per year was low from 3 year cultivation. Partial paeonol content of root increased in the order of lower part (3.07%), middle part (2.77%), and upper part (2.38%).

In order to produce hemp with low cannabinoids and appropriate fiber yield, seeds of the IH3 (non drug type germplasm) and local variety (drug type cultivar) were mixed to 1:1, 2:1, 3:1 on base of seed weight ratio and cultivated for seed production. In the seed yield trial, the weight of 1000 grains were around 21 g, which was increased in proportion to the ratio of IH3 seeds but seed yield were 100 kg/10a, which were not significantly different by the seeds-mixing ratio. In fiber yield trials with seeds from seed yield trial, fiber yield ranged $193{\sim}198kg/10a$ which was not significantly different by the seeds mixing ratio but the content of THC(${\Delta}$-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) was lowered in proportion to the ratio of IH3 seeds. Variation of THC and CBD (Cannabidiol) level in the 150 plant cultivated with various seed mixing ratio reflected that the percentage of drug and intermediate type were decreased but non drug type were increased in proportion to the ratio of IH3 seeds.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the proper planting method of Rehmannia glutinasa Liboschitz. A Chungbuk local cultivar was sown on the seed bed of 200cm with the planting density of 30cm(6 rows) $\times$ 8.5cm(30 rhizome per $\textrm{m}^2$). The experimental design was randomized block design with 3 replications. And the result was summarized as follows. The emergence date of level Planting(control : 0$^{\circ}$) was May 23, but the emergence dates of Oblique planting(45$^{\circ}$) and Upright planting(90$^{\circ}$) treatments were later than the control by 2~4 days. And the leaf length and the ratio of leaf length/leaf width were not significantly different. As compared with the 29.2cm and 10.0mm of the rhizome length and the rhizome diameter of level planting treatment, the rhizome length of Oblique planting treatment was decreased by 3.4cm and 0 mm. The length and diameter of rhizome of the Upright planting treatment was decreased by 2.8cm and 1.0mm. And the order of sugar content was level Planting > Oblique planting > Upright planting. The total yields were decreased by 9% in the Oblique planting and by 15% in the Upright planting compared to 1,203kg/10a in the control, and the commercial yields showed the same tendency. The level planting treatment was found to be most proper for sowing of Rehmannia glutinasa Liboschitz in the middle inland region of Korea.

Resistance to chestnut gall wasp (Dryocosmus kuriphilus) of Korean prevailing chestnut cultivars, new cultivars released by Korea Forest Research Institute (KFRI), and local cultivars by growers was investigated to select optimal cultivars suitable for main chestnut producing areas. During three years investigated from 2004 to 2006, we could find no damage by chestnut gall wasp in any cultivars of test sites located in Gongju and Chungju of the central area. However, most cultivars of Gwangyang, Sancheong and Hapcheon sites located in the southern area showed a lot of damage by chestnut gall wasp. Hapcheon was most severe in comparison with regional damage by chestnut gall wasp. From comparison among cultivars, Kwangeun, Sandae, Eunsan and Idae released by KFRI showed no damage suggesting the highest resistant cultivars. On the contrary, over 20% in total damage by chestnut gall wasp was investigated in Tanzawa, Riheiguri, Kurakata-amaguri, Pyeonggi, Gwangdeok, Seil, Sinipyeong and Yumabyuni suggesting susceptible cultivars. In damage by chestnut gall wasp according to investigated position within tree, weak shoot was more severe than bearing shoot. Damage by chestnut gall wasp of major cultivars in Gwangyang, Sancheong and Hapcheon sites was remarkably decreased in 2006, and it seems to be caused by biological control by natural enemies such as Torymus sinensis.

Current status on the occurrence and the management of the major disease, insect and mite pests were investigated in the organic or non-chemical pest control orchards from 2005 to 2009. Numbers of certified organic or non-chemical apple orchards were increased from 14 in 2005 to 78 in 2008. Severe damages on leaves and fruits occurred by the several diseases such as marssonina blotch, bitter rot, white rot, sooty blotch and flyspeck, and the several insect pests such as apple leaf-curling aphid, woolly apple aphid, oriental fruit moth and peach fruit moth on the almost certified organic or non-chemical pest control orchards. About 10 and 18 environmental-friendly materials were used to control diseases and insect or mite pests respectively. But, lime sulfur and bordeaux mixture to diseases and machine oil, plant oil mixed with egg yolk, and pheromone mating disruptions to insect pests were effective to control under the adequate conditions. At present, it is extremely difficult to produce organic apples in Korea. Growers must consider about and solve so many conditions on the cultivar, weather, local site, marketing and so on, before when they decide to change from conventional or IPM(Integrated Pest Management) to organic or non-chemical pest control orchards.
