Host plants and host preference of brown chafer, Adoretus tenuimaculatus Waterhouse (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) were investigated in fields and laboratory. 66 kinds of plants in 25 fanlilies were recorded as host during the field survey and 14 kinds in 5 families were verified to be eaten by artificial plant supply. Thus, host plants of A. tertuimaculatus were 186 kinds in 42 families in total including 136 kinds of plants in 32 families from literatures. 50 plants in 19 families were newly recorded as host of A. tenuimaculatus in this study. A. tenuimaculatus was the most frequently visited to J14glans sinensis and Caztanea crenata was the highest damaged plant. C. crenata, Robinia pseudoacasia, Malus sieboldii, J. sinensis, Quercus mongolica, and Q. aliena were considerably highly preferered host plant. However, A. tenuimaculatus never visited to Diospyros lotus, J. nigra, Fraxinus mandshurica, F. rhynchophylla, Pyracantha angustqolia, Paulownia coreana, and Celtis sinensis. Even the same host plant of A. tenuimaculatus. preference was different according to observed place and damage level was also different depending on observed place and time.

Plant biotechnology involving genetic modification has been rather controversial. However, the major issues related to safety are being addressed by continued improvements in technology. Some of the related facts will be highlighted to set the tone for a scientific discussion on the possibilities of using the technology for crop improvement. Our main research interest is to understand the molecular regulation of shoot bud regeneration in plant tissue culture, which is essential for crop improvement by biotechnology. We have isolated and characterized some genes that are associated with adventitious shoot regeneration. These include a MADS-box cDNA (PkMADS1) from paulownia kawakamii, which regulates vegetative shoot development and in vitro shoot regeneration from leaf explants. Another gene we have characterized from petunia codesfor a cytokinin binding protein (PETCBP). Preliminary functional analysis of this gene indicated that this also affects adventitious shoot bud initiation. Also, the antisense suppression of this gene in petunia causedexcessive branching. Results from our work and selected other publications will be used to highlight the possibilities of manipulation of such genes to improve crop species.

Phytoplasmas have been associated with more than 46 plant species in Korea. Several vegetables, ornamentals, fruit trees and other crop species are affected by phytoplasma diseases. Six 16Sr groups of phytoplasmas have been identified and these phytoplasmas are associated with 63 phytoplasma diseases. Aster yellows phytoplasmas are the most prevalent group and has been associated with more than 25 diseases in Korea. Jujube witches' broom, paulownia witches' broom and mulberry dwarf diseases cause economic losses to host trees throughout the country. So far, Korean phytoplasmas belong to six species of 'Candidatus Phytoplasma'; 'Ca. P. asteris', 'Ca. P. pruni$^*$', 'Ca. P. ziziphi', 'Ca. P. trifolii', 'Ca. P. solani$^*$' and 'Ca. P. castaneae'. The diseases are distributed throughout the country and most of them were observed in Gyeongbuk and Chonbuk provinces. At least four insect vectors; Cyrtopeltis tenuis, Hishimonus sellatus, Macrosteles striifrons and Ophiola flavopicta have been identified for phytoplasma transmission.

The purpose of this study is to clarify topography interpretation and the space remodeling characteristic of the city by the feng shui thought. the result of the study is as follow. 1. remodeling of the city in the Phoenix thought to be involved in the background wants to overcome the difficult situation in the desire to confirm the implications could be. 2. Six cities have confirmed that the restructuring of urban space by the idea that Phoenix, paulownia, a common landscape elements such as bamboo forests, buildings and places, the egg of the phoenix in relation to landscape, such as Phoenix said that the building area as appropriate to the characteristics of their elements.

UV and high performance liquid chromatographic methods for the quantitative analysis of methyl 5-hydroxy-dinaphtho [1,2-2',3'] furan-7,12-dione-6-carboxylate(MHDDC) in urine and blood were developed. The correlation coefficients of the calibration curves of MHDDC in chloroform, methanol and dioxane solution were 0.999, 0.997 and 0.998, respectively. MHDDC was resolved within 15 min and had a detection limit of 2-5ng at S/N=3 by using a reversed-phase column with two solvents (MeOH, HAc).

In the present industry, there is not only the cutting of iron metal, but also the cutting of alloy aluminum, brass and plastic to wood(Paulownia). A variety of material is used and these industry is made need of the cutting material but lots of experiments processing is not enough at the moment. At this point, our team processed the basic experiment about influencing of cutting angle of bite concerned to manufacture in the turning of non-iron metal. Generally speaking, we recognized that there was occurrence of increase of rough surface with increasing of cutting angle in the non-iron metal. but in the cutting of wood we knew, there was special change with change of cutting angle.

Molecular identification and genetic relationships between a phytoplasma associated with chestnut little leaf (CLL) and phytoplasma isolates of other trees in Korea were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). These 16S rDNA sequences amplified from the various phytoplasmas were used in DNA heteroduplex mobility assays (HMA). In DNA HMA combined with PCR, the mobility shift was observed for a heteroduoplex formed in combined with CLL and jujube witches broom, but not for those formed in combined with CLL and each of sumac witches broom, paulownia witches broom, and mulberry dwarf. HMA combined with PCR has been shown to be a very useful method for detection and differentiation of phytoplasmas.

Physico-chemical properties of methyl 5-hydroxy-dinaphtho[1,2-2',3'] furan-7,12-dione-6-carboxylate(MHDDC) were examined. The yellowish color of the solution at pH 8 below changes to a bluish color when the solution is basified to pH 10 above. This color change was presumed to a change of the molecular structure from a quinoid-type to a quinoid-type with the dissociation to the hydroxyl group as shown in chart 1.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the Mourning Culture. In this study, methods such as field work, depth interviews and open-ended descriptions were employed to interpret their mourning culture. The results are as follows. This study classifies Mourning Culture by its filial piety, shroud, mourning garments and cremation. The death in the mourning have relation to filial piety. People began preparing their shroud after their 70th birthday anniversary. To keep prepared shroud naphthalene and leaf tobacco were placed inside. And to keep prepared shroud a paulownia tree box was used. The cloths of the shroud were mostly all Sambe(大麻). The color was light color center upon the white color and 素色. Terms of the shroud were different in each region. The kind of the mourning garments were various. The Cognition of the cremation was considerably affirmative.

Heteroduplex mobility assay (HMA) and single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analyses combined with PCR were developed for genetic differentiation of various phytoplasma isolates. In the HMA and SSCP analyses, differences in the mobility shifts and the SSCP band patterns identified three distinct types of phyto-plasmas: Type Ⅰ, jujube witches'-broom (JWB) and ligustrum witches'-broom (LiWB); Type Ⅱ, mulberry dwarf（MD) and sumac witches'-broom (SuWB); and Type Ⅲ, paulownia witches'-broom (PaWB). Results of the sequence analyses revealed that phytoplasmas of JWB and MD had 100％ homology with LiWB and SuWB, respectively. On the other hand, PaWB phyto-plasma had 97.8% homology with MD phytoplasma. The PCR-HMA and SSCP techniques were very useful in determining variations in sequence among several isolates of phytoplasmas. Furthermore, the methods were rapid, economical, highly sensitive, and easy to handle with the gels.
