This study was carried out to investigate the optimum composition and concentration of medium for the acclimation of the shoots derived from bioreactor culture of Scrophularia buergeriana. Rooting and growth of the shoots cultured in bioreactor for 4 weeks were better on liquid full strength MS medium while one-tenth of MS medium was good for rooting and growth of the shoots cultured in bioreactor for 6 weeks. Leaf expansion was more effective in the shoots cultured for 6 weeks on solid MS medium than in those cultured for 4 weeks. No leaf expanded in liquid medium. Vitrification rate was higher in full strength solid MS medium than in half strength MS medium. It is concluded that acclimation of the shoots is more effective on the half strength solid MS medium containing 1.2% agar.

Effects of genotype and culture medium on plant regeneration from cotyledon segments of red pepper(Capsicum annuum L.) was investigated. Among combinations of IAA(0.25 and 0.50 mg/L) and zeatin(2.0 and 4.0 mg/L) added to MS medium, combination of 2.0 mg/L zeatin and 0.25 mg/L IAA was shown to be the best for shoot differentiation from cotyledon segments. Shoot regeneration from cotyledon explants took 9 to 25days, depending on genotypes and culture media. Early shooting was observed in Yeongyangjaelae, Putgochw, Karkovskij-A-35, Gris I-A-1 on MS medium containing 2.0 mg/L zeatin and 0.25 IAA mg/L. Percent of explants producing shoots, as also influenced by genotypes and culture media, were over 90% for 621, Yeongyangjaelae, Putgochw, Nikko jacksacgmulgochw, Ch-6-Num-216, and Kajenskij-A-35 when cultured on MS medum supplemented with 2.0 mg/L zeatin and 0.25 mg/L IAA and for Fresno chile, PI 169126, Kajenskij-A-35, jacksacgmulgochw, and PI 297438 on MS medium including 2.0 mg/L BA and 1.0 mg/L IAA.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of supporting material and ionic strength of the MS medium on growth of strawberry plantlets cultured in vitro for the rapid mass production. Explants of $Fragaria$ $ananassa$ 'Houkouwase' in vitro were planted in the agar or Tosilee (commercial plug medium) medium as the supporting material and supplied with 1/4 MS, 1/2 MS or basal (as the control) MS medium in an autotrophic micropropagation. Plant height and root length were significantly greater when they were cultured in 1/2 MS medium as compared to those grown in the agar medium. Also, shoot fresh and dry weights, and leaf area in the 1/2 MS medium were greater than in 1/4 MS or basal MS medium. When plantlets were cultured in Tosilee medium and fed with the basal MS medium, plant height, root length, shoot fresh and dry weights, root fresh and dry weights, and leaf area were promoted and greater than those in plantlets cultured in the agar medium.

To establish the mass proliferation system of Ardisia pusilla DC, the shoot tips of Ardisia pusilla DC were cultured on the MS and half-strength MS medium supplemented with $0{\sim}5.0$ mg/L BA or $0{\sim}0.5$ mg/L thidiazuron(TDZ), respectively. A few multiple shoot formation observed when the shoots were cultured on MS medium containing TDZ. However, the frequency of multiple shoot formation was reached up to 82.4%, when the shoots were cultured on half-strength MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L BA. Also the number of shoot per explant was 7.1. To promote rooting from multiple shoot, newly formed shoots were transferred to half-strength MS medium containing 0.5 mg/L IBA or 0.5 mg/L NAA, respectively. Regenerated plantlets were grown to normal mature plants in soil.

This study was carried out to determine suitable in vitro culture conditions of new ever-bearing strawberry ($Fragaria$ $ananassa$ Duch.), 'Goha'. Four-week old plantlets which were derived from the meristem culture were used in this study. Three different culture media including MS, Gamborg B5 and White medium were used for the plant culture and the medium concentrations were at the 5 levels of $1/3{\times}$, $1/2{\times}$, $1{\times}$, $2{\times}$ and $3{\times}$. Sucrose content ranged at four levels of 1, 3, 5 and 8% (w/v). Crown diameter on the MS medium was thicker (2.1 mm) than in other media. Fresh weight on the MS medium was 482 mg, which was heavier than 88 mg or 260 mg of Gamborg B5 or White medium, respectively. Particularly, 1/2MS medium was found to have higher growth rate than these in other treatments (fresh weight, dry weight and D/F rate). Shoot length in the treatment of 1% sucrose concentration was 3.6 cm which was the longest. Shoot length was in inverse proportion to the increasing concentration of sucrose. Fresh weight was increased up to 3% sucrose concentration, but decreased above 5% sucrose concentration. From the results, we found that the best condition for in vitro culture of new ever-bearing strawberry 'Goha' was 1/2MS medium supplemented with 1% sucrose concentration.

When the leaf and stem tissues of Rehmannia glutinosa were cultured on MS medium with plant growth regulators, shoots were regenerated on MS medium with TDZ(0.01 to $2.0{\mu}M$), and root initiation was better on MS medium treated with NAA(0.01 to 2.0mg/$\iota$). On $B_5$ medium, shoot regeneration was better on medium with TDZ than those with Quincrac, NAA, and 2.4-D. The addition of Quincrac, NAA, and 2.4-D inhibited shoot regeneration on MS medium, but promoted shoot regeneration on $B_5$ medium. Shoot regeneration and growth was better on MS medium with the combination treatments of 2.4-D 0.01mg/$\iota$ and TDZ 0.01, 0.1 and $2{\mu}M$ compared with other treatments. Also shoot regeneration and growth on B_5 medium showed the similar results to that on MS medium.

This study was conducted to develop in vitro propagation techniques of new cultivar, 'Greenstar', bred by Highland Agriculture Research Center. The multiple shoot induction and plant growth of in vitro plant were analyzed by MS media concentration (1/2 MS, 1 MS and 2 MS medium), plant growth regulators and its proper concentration; CPPU [Forchlorfenuron(N-(2-chloro-4-pridyl)-3-phenylurea) (0, 0.5, 1.0 and $2.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$), thidiazuron [(TDZ), (0.01, 0.1, 0.5 and $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$), zeatin (0, 0.5, 1.0 and $2.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$), and BA [6-benzylaminiopurine(BA), (0, 0.5, 1.0 and $2.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$)] in MS (3% sugar and 0.8% agar with pH 5.7) media. The highest number of induced shoots, leaves and roots were shown in 1/2 MS medium concentration. On the 1/2 MS medium, shoot numbers, shoot length, leaf numbers and root numbers were 11.0, 1.9 cm, 24.7, and 8.0, respectively. On the absence of CPPU in the 1/2 MS medium, shoot length and root numbers was greater than CPPU treatment, but the highest number of shoots was induced by the $2.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ of CPPU concentration in 1/2MS medium. TDZ, zeatin, and BA treatments were not effective on the induction of multiple shoot in vitro culture. As a result, in vitro culture of new Saxifraga fortunei, 'Greenstar' with $2.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ of CPPU in 1/2 MS medium was most effective for the rapid multiplication.

Growth rate and saikosaponin content of Buplurum falcatum hairy root on MS and RCM basal media were measured. And using hairy root cultured in those media, it was investigated whether some correlation between differences in growth rate and saikosaponin content and histiological difference was or not. Results obtained showed that among media tested, MS and 3RCM medium which showed the faster growth in fresh weight and dry weight, respectively. And saikosaponin content of hairy root cultured in 3RCM was $2.2{\sim}5.5$ times higher than that of 1 year cultivated roots, whereas that in MS was extremely low. On the other hand, histological differences of root tips and about 1 cm region from root tip cultured in both MS and 3RCM were not prominent, however, in mature region, a lot of cells only in 3RCM contained densely stained vacuoles or organelles which probably contain tannin, suggesting that development of those has a correlation with biosynthesis of secondary metabolites containing saikosaponin.

The effects of MS salt strength, sucrose, and cultural conditions on bulblet formation and growth were investigated to optimize the conditions for micropropagating bulblets from in vitro bulb scales of Lilium Oriental Hybrid 'Casa Blanca'. There was no difference on bulblet formation in the range of 1/2~2 $\times$ strength of MS salt, but it was inhibited remarkably in 3 $\times$ strength of MS salt. The growth of regenerated bulblets was most stimulated on MS basal medium. Favorable bulblet formation and its growth from bulb scales were achieved when grown on the media with 1 : 2 or 1 : 3 in the ratio of NH$_4$^+ : NO$_3$^- , as well as on MS basal medium (NH$_4$^+ : NO$_3$^- = about l : 2). Therefore, MS basal medium was very suitable for bulblet formation and growth from bulb scales. Bulblet formation was inhibited but its growth was stimulated with increase sucrose concentration in the medium. The growth of regenerated bulblets was very effective on the media with 9~12% sucrose. Addition of activated charcoal (AC) to the medium inhibited bulblet formation from bulb scales, but enhanced the growth of regenerated bulblets. Especially, the medium containing 1 g/L AC was most effective on the growth of bulblets. No difference was found on bulblet formation and growth from bulb scales under light and dark conditions. In vitro micropropagation of L. Oriental Hybrid 'Casa Blanca' was supposed very reasonable to enhance the growth of the bulblets after forming of bulblets from in vitro bulb scales, and then, subculture the bulb scales from the grown bulblets on MS medium with 9% sucrose and 1 g/L AC.

The effects of post-cultural addition of liquid medium addition to stimulate in vitro bulblet growth in Lilium oriental hybrid 'Casa Blanca' were investigated. The sections of bulblets with swollen basal plate (7 mm$\times$12 mm) were cultured on medium containing 60 g/L sucrose and 1 g/L activated charcoal for two months in dark, and then, liquid medium was added into the same vessels. The addition of liquid medium stimulated the growth of bulblets remarkably, compared to no addition of liquid medium. The liquid medium supplemented with 120 g/L sucrose and double strength of MS salts were the most effective on the growth of in vitro bulblets.
