In this study, we screened and evaluated possibility of wood rot fungi as biocatalyst for biotransformation of sesquiterpenes. Screening were performed to select the most promising microorganisms with ability to biotransformation the substrate trans,trans-fanesol. Trans,trans-farnesol which is synthesized precursor of sesquiterpenes was used for resistance test on 19 of wood rot fungi. From the 19 tested wood rot fungi, 5 were selected by resistance test on different concentration of trans,trans-fanesol. Biotransformation was performed with selected wood rot fungi on liquid culture. The metabolites detected by GC-MS analysis were nerolidol for Laetiporus sulphureus var. miniatus (jungh) Imaz and eicosane for Coriolus versicolor (L.Fr) Prlar and isoborneol for Fomitopsis pinicola and isocyclocitral for Lampteromyces japonicas. As the results, wood rot fungi could be potential biocatalyst for biotransformation of sesquiterpenes.

Volatile components of fresh apricot (Prunus armeniaca var. ansu Max.) were isolated by simultaneous distillation-extraction at two different pH values of 3.1 and 7.0 and by headspace trapping method. The volatiles were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. A total of 80 components were identified in the three aroma concentrates, including 9 naphthalene derivatives that were not previously reported in apricot. Of components identified in native pH (3.1) sample, the major components were aliphatic $C_6$ aldehydes and alcohols, monoterpene alcohols, benzyl alcohol, ${\beta}-phenylethyl$ alcohol and naphthalene derivatives, while those in neutral pH(7.0) sample and headspace volatiles were aliphatic $C_6$ aldehydes and alcohols. Simultaneous distillation-extraction at pH 3.1 was significantly increased the concentration of n-hexanal, trans-2-hexenal, cis-3-hexen-1-ol, linalool oxide, linalool, ${\alpha}-terpineol$, nerol, geraniol, benzyl alcohol, ${\beta}-phenylethyl$ alcohol and naphthalene derivatives. These results demonstrate that above the components are present in glycosidically bound forms in apricot.

This study was conducted to examine effects of plant growth regulators and light resources on the formation of multiple shoot and plant regeneration of Hovenia dulcis var. koreana Nakai. Stem and shoot tip were cultured on MS medium or WPM supplemented with various plant growth regulators. At the single treatment, the highest shoot formation was obtained when stem explants were cultured on WPM supplemented with kinetin $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$. MS medium containing NAA 0.1 and TDZ $0.1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ gave the best results for shoot induction rate and shoot growth in combination treatments. Of the BAP and kinetin tested, BAP $0.5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ on WPM was found to be more effective for shoot growth from shoot tip. Under white fluorescent light treatment, shoot growth was much higher than blue, red LED treatments. Root induction from in vitro growth of plantlet was the best on WPM supplemented with $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ IBA. The results suggest that selection of plant growth regulators and light resources could be important factor to achieve an efficient in vitro growth.

'Ggoma' is a new Hibiscus dwarf type variety developed by gamma irradiation at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI). This study was conducted to determine the best optimum cultural callus formation and shoot regeneration condition. Sterilized leaf tissues were cultured on MS (Marashige and skoog's) medium containing 3% sucrose, 0.8% agar with different concentration and combination of TDZ, 2, 4-D, KT, BA, and 2iP for 4 weeks in vitro culture. MS medium containing 2,4-D $0.1mg\;l^{-1}$ and BA $0.5mg\;l^{-1}$ were most effective on callus formation and growth. After 4 weeks, callus was transferred on BA (0.5, 1, $1.5mg\;l^{-1}$) and TDZ (0.1, 0.2, $0.3mg\;l^{-1}$) for shoot formation. The best condition for inducing the shoot from callus was BA $1.5mg\;l^{-1}$ and TDZ $0.3mg\;l^{-1}$. This result will be useful for the rapid multiplication of Hibiscus syriacus L.var. Ggoma.

Analyzing the 13 sort contents of broccoli leaves by using GC/MS, sulforaphane was found in 11 sort of broccoli leaves for the result. After being grinded by the blinder, amount of sulforaphane in broccoli leaves was rapidly raised after thirty minutes and maintained the amount till sixty minutes have passed. Among the parts of broccoli, the root had the most sulforaphane. In freezing temperature, biosythesized sulforaphane maintained longer than in room temperature. However, even in frozen condition, the amount of sulforaphane was reduced to half or less after 3 weeks.

The essential oil of Korean valerian root ( Valeriana fauriei roar. dasycarpa Hara) was isolated by simultaneous distillation Sl extraction. The oil content of fresh root was 0.7% (wb) and that of dried root was 2.1 5 (db) and sensory analysis of the oil indicated sweet-balsamic, woody and floral characteristic aroma notes. The oil was fractionated into one hydrocarbon fraction and three oxygenated hydrocarbon fractions by using silica gel column chromatograpy. Each fraction was analyzed by capillary GC and GC-MS. Out of 81 characterized compounds, the major compounds were a-pinene, camphene, $\beta$-pinene, bornyl acetate, borneol , bornyl iso-valerate and sesquiphellandrene and the characteristic floral and woody aroma of neutral fraction of Korean valerian root could be due to be the presence of oxygenated compounds such as borneol, bornyl acetate, bornyl iso-valerate, p-ionone ana $\beta$-ionone epoxide. Comparing the yield of Korean valerian root with those from other origins reported, oil content of Korean valerian root was higher than those of European and Indian origins.

Metabolites from medicinal plants continue to hold significant value in the exploration and advancement of novel pharmaceuticals. In the search for plants containing compounds with anti-inflammatory effects, we observed that the ethanol (EtOH) extract obtained from the aerial components of Gouania leptostachya DC. var. tonkinensis Pit. exhibited substantial suppression of nitric oxide (NO) in vitro. In a phytochemical study on an EtOH extract of G. leptostachya, 11 compounds were purified, including one unreported compound namely gouanioside A (1). Their chemical structures were unambiguously determined through the use of various spectroscopic techniques, such as 1 and 2D NMR, IR, and HR-ESI-MS, and by producing derivatives via chemical reactions. The EtOH extract, fractions, and a new compound exerted inflammatory effects by altering NO synthesis in murine RAW264.7 macrophage cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide. The underlying inflammatory mechanism of the new compound 1 was also explored through various in vitro experiments. The results of this study indicate the potential usefulness of new compound 1 from G. leptostachya as a treatment for inflammatory diseases.

Interspecific crosses between rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) and chinese cabbage (B. campestris var. pekinensis Makino) and turnip (B. rapa L.) were made in order to examine the cross possibility and morphological phenotype of $F_1$ hybrid. The growth of pollen tube of cross between rapeseed and chinese cabbage was more rapid than cross between rapeseed and turnip. Silique formation and seed setting in silique were relatively high in the cross between rapeseed and chinese cabbage. The percentage of silique set from interspecific cross between rapeseed and chinese cabbage was 90.6% and higher 23.3% than the percentage of silique from interspecific cross rapeseed and turnip. The average number of seed per silique obtained from the cross rapeseed and chinese cabbage, and rapeseed and turnip reached 15.5 and 11.6, respectively. The morphological phenotypes of $F_1$ hybrid plants obtained from seeds in the cross between rapeseed and chinese cabbage resembled rapeseed mainly, but leaf length and leaf width were increased. The size, shape and lobation of leaves of $F_1$ hybrid plants from interspecific cross between rapeseed and turnip were intermediated between their parent species, but color of leaves was dark-green.
