All members of R. glutinosa show the unique characteristic of intrinsic tolerance to paraquat (PQ). Antioxidant enzymes have been proposed to be the primary mechanism of PQ resistance in several plant species. Therefore, the antioxidant enzyme systems of R. glutinosa were evaluated by comparatively analyzing cellular antioxidant enzyme levels, and their responses of oxidative stresses and hormones. The levels of ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione reductase (GR), non-specific peroxidase (POX), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were 7.3-, 4.9-, 2.7- and 1.6-fold higher in PQ-tolerant R. glutinosa than in PQ-susceptible soybeans. However, the activity of catalase (CAT) was about 12-fold higher in the soybeans. The activities of antioxidant enzymes reduced after PQ treatment in the two species, with the exception of POX and SOD in R. glutinosa, which increased by about 40%. Interestingly, the activities of APX, SOD and POX in R. glutinosa, relative to those in soybeans, were further increased by 49, 67 and 93% after PQ treatment. The considerably higher intrinsic levels, and increases in the relative activities of antioxidant enzymes in R. glutinosa under oxidative stress support the possible role of these enzymes in the PQ tolerance of R. glutinosa. However, the relatively lower levels of SOD versus PQ tolerance, and the mixed responses of antioxidant enzymes to stresses and hormones, suggest a possible alternative mechanism(s) for PQ tolerance in R. glutinosa.

This study was aimed at evaluating the growth promoting effect of symbiotic algal polyol (ribitol) and plant hormones on the lichen-forming fungi (LFF), Ramalina farinacea (CH050010 and 40403) and Ramalina fastigiata. The addition of ribitol to basal (malt-yeast extract) medium enhanced the relative growth rates of all three LFF. R. farinacea (CH050010), R. farinacea (40403) and R. fastigiata (H06127) showed 35.3%, 29.0% and 29.3% higher growth rates, respectively, compared to the control. IBA (indole-3-butyric acid) and TIBA (2,3,5-tridobenzoic acid) also increased growth rates of the LFF by 34 to 64% and 7 to 28%, respectively, compared to the control. The combination of ribitol with IBA or TIBA synergistically increased the growth of all LFF. For example, ribitol and IBA treatments increased growth rates of R. farinacea (CH050010), R. farinacea (40403) and R. fastigiata (H06127) by 79.4%, 40.3% and 72.8% in, respectively, compared to those grown on the basal medium. The stimulating effect of ribitol and IBA on the LFF growth induced vertical development of the fungal mass in culture. We suggest that lichen-forming fungal growth of Ramalina lichens can be stimulated aposymbiotically by supplementing polyols and plant hormones to the basal medium in the mass production of lichen secondary metabolites under large scale culture conditions.

Role of plant hormones on the leaf senescence of Phaseolus vulgaris were investigated by measuring the disassembly of chlorophyll-protein complexes in detached leaves treated with NAA, GA$_{3}$ , or BA. The loss of chlorophyll that was characteristic of leaf senescence induced disassembly of chlorophyll-protein complexed. During dark-induced senescence, PSI complex was rapidly degraded after the early stage, whereas RC-Core3 was slightly increased until the middle stage and slowly decreased thereafter. And gradual degradation of trimeric LCHII progressed after the late stage of senescence. Exogenous application of NAA and GA$_{3}$ had little or no effect in protecting disassembly of chlorophyll-protein complexes during leaf senescence compared to control. However exogenous BA application strongly leaves. In the simultaneous treatment of plant hormones and light, BA application under illumination of light was most effective in the stability of chlorophyll-protein complexes, particularly PSI, LHCII, RC-Core2, RC-Core3 and SC-1. these results suggest, therefore, that simultaneous application of BA and light induced synergistic effect on the stability off chlorophyll-protein complexes during leaf senescence.

The analytic principles of GC and MS were explained in relation to plant hormone analyses and the characteristics of two instruments were compared. The selection of column, condition of measurement and the method of ionization to get a good spectrum were also briefly described. Finally, the pre-treatment of sample by solvent extraction method to remove the unnecessary part of sample and the synthetic method, especially reagents and reaction condition, for the preparation of ether or ester derivative which can be easily vaporized in GC were explained.

Systemic acquired resistance is a form of inducible resistance that is triggered in systemic healthy tissues of local-infected plants. Several candidate signaling molecules emerged in the past two years, including the methylated derivatives of well-known defense hormones salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA). In our present study, the symptom on Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) infected Arabidopsis leaves in 0.1 mM SA or 0.06 mM JA pre-treated plants was lighter (less reactive oxygen species accumulation and less oxidative damages) than that of the control group. JA followed by SA (JA${\rightarrow}$SA) had the highest inhibitory efficiency to CMV replication, higher than JA and SA simultaneous co-pretreatment (JA+SA), and higher than a JA or a SA single pretreatment. The crosstalk between the two hormones was further investigated at the transcriptional levels of pathogenesis-related genes. The time-course measurement showed JA might play a more important role in the interaction between JA and SA.

The aim of this study is to develop an optimal analytical method for gonadorelin, progesterone, oxytocin and estradiol, the major components of hormones. A relatively simple and reproducible method using high performance liquid chromatography was developed and as a result of the measurement of specificity, linearity, repeatability, accuracy and intermediated precision, the validity of the developed method was verified with the result of meeting the verification criteria of analytical method validation. Using this newly developed method, 12 post-market veterinary products were tested and the ingredient content were 91.9~116.4%, which satisfied the 90~120% condition of the administrative measure standard. Therefore, if the newly developed method is used for the collection examination of hormone in veterinary medicine, it can be useful as an approved test method.

Since salicylic acid (SA) was discovered as an elicitor of tobacco plants inducing the resistance against Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) in 1979, increasing reports suggest that SA indeed is a key plant hormone regulating plant immunity. In addition, recent studies indicate that SA can regulate many different responses, such as tolerance to abiotic stress, plant growth and development, and soil microbiome. In this review, we focused on the recent findings on SA's effects on resistance to biotic stresses in different plant-pathogen systems, tolerance to different abiotic stresses in different plants, plant growth and development, and soil microbiome. This allows us to discuss about the safe and practical use of SA as a plant defense activator and growth regulator. Crosstalk of SA with different plant hormones, such as abscisic acid, ethylene, jasmonic acid, and auxin in different stress and developmental conditions were also discussed.

This study was conducted to determine the optimal concentrations of plant hormones (2,4-D, picloram, dicamba, NAA, kinetin) and the suitable explants among seeds, hypocotyl, and cotyledons on calls formation and plant regeneration of stevia(Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni). The frequency of cellus formation was higher in the young leaf-explants then the older ones, and in the seeds then the hypocotyls and cotyledons on MS medium with 1mg/L 2,4-D. After transfer of seed-derived stevia callus producing embryogenic callus on plant-regeneration medium, the frequency of plant regeneration from callus was 23.8% in MS medium with 1mg/L NAA and 3mg/L kinetin.
