Porous carbon materials synthesized from various plant derived precursors i.e. seeds of [Castor (Ricinus communis), Soap nut (Sapindus sp.), Cashew-nut (Semecarpus anacardium), Jack fruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus), Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius), Ambadi (Crotolaria juncea), Neem (Azadirachta indica), Bitter Almond (Prunus amygdalus), Sesamum (Sisamum indicum), Date-palm (Phoenix dactylifera),Canola (Brassica napus), Sunflower (Helianthus annulus)] and fibrous materials from [Corn stem- (Zea mays), Rice straw (Oryza sativa), Bamboo (Bombax bambusa) and Coconut fibers (Cocos nucifera)] were screened to make supercapacitor in 5M KOH solution. Carbon material obtained from Jack fruit seeds (92.0 F/g), Rice straw (83.0 F/g), Soap nut seeds (54.0 F/g), Castor seeds (44.34 F/g) and Bamboo (40.0 F/g) gave high capacitance value as compared to others. The magnitude of capacitance value was found to be inversely proportional to the scan rate of measurement. It is suggested that carbon material should possess large surface area and small pore size to get better value of capacitor. Moreover, the structure of carbon materials should be such that majority of pores are in the plane parallel to the plane of electrode and surface is fluffy like cotton ball.

In an effort to optimize tissue culture responses of tall fescue, the effects of basic medium and carbon sources on seed culturability and genotypic difference of plant regenerability were investigated. The MS basal medium was superior to $N_{5}$ 6/ and $B_{medium}$ in enhancing callus growth and plant regeneration. To determine the effect of carbon sources on plant regeneration, the seeds were cultured on medium with 30 g/L sucrose and maltose, respectively. Medium supplemented with 30 g/L sucrose resulted in regeneration of shoots from 50% of the calli. The genotypic difference in plant regenerability was obvious among five cultivars of tall fescue tested. \\`KY31\\` and \\`Hokuryo\\` showed to have higher regenerability with the frequency of 33% and 51%, respectively.

In Japan, the primary carbonaceous particles emitted from motor vehicles and waste incinerators have been reduced due to strict regulations against exhaust gas. However, the relative contribution of carbonaceous particles derived from plants and biomass has been increasing. Accordingly, compositional analysis of carbonaceous particles has become increasingly important to determine the sources and types of particles produced. To reveal the sources of the organic particles contained in particulate matter with diameters of ${\leq}2.5{\mu}m$ ($PM_{2.5}$) and the processes involved in their generation, we analyzed molecular marker compounds (2-methyltetrols, cis-pinonic acid, and levoglucosan) derived from the plants and biomass in the $PM_{2.5}$ collected during daytime- and nighttime-sampling periods in summer (July and August) and autumn (November) in Kazo, which is in the northern area of Saitama prefecture, Japan. We also measured $^{14}C$ carbonaceous concentrations in the same $PM_{2.5}$ samples. The concentrations of 2-methyltetrols were higher in the summer than in the autumn. Because the deciduous period overlaps with this decrease in the levels of 2-methyltetrols, we considered the emission source to broad-leaved trees. In contrast, the emission source of the cis-pinonic acid precursor was considered to be conifers, because its concentration remained almost constant throughout the year. The concentration of levoglucosan was considerably increased in the autumn due to frequent biomass open burning. The ratio of plant-derived carbon to total carbon, obtained by measuring of $^{14}C$, in summer $PM_{2.5}$ sample was higher in the nighttime, and could be influenced by anthropogenic sources during the daytime.

We describe plant biomass in the grasslands of the Mongolian steppe obtained using a quadrat sampling technique. Four sites were studied in the northeastern Mongolia located between $47^{\circ}12'N$ and $47^{\circ}40'N$ and $102^{\circ}22'E$ and $112^{\circ}24'E$, which were typical grasslands of the steppe. Biomass, carbon and nitrogen content were determined for the plants collected from the grazed and ungarazed stands. With the measurements above, we expect to obtain information on grazing effects on the grasslands and carbon sequestration of the grassland from the air. In order to estimate the biomass without destroying the stands, we derived an equation to describe the relationship between plant biomass and v-value using plant height and species coverage within the stand. Estimated plant biomass in the ungrazed and grazed stands ranged between $108.0\;g\;m^{-2}$ and $13.4\;g\;m^{-2}$ and between $97.5\;g\;m^{-2}$ and $14.1\;g\;m^{-2}$ in late June 2005, respectively. Litter in the ungrazed and grazed stands ranged from $330.3\;g\;m^{-2}$ to $78.4\;g\;m^{-2}$ and from $188.0\;g\;m^{-2}$ to $20.3\;g\;m^{-2}$, similarly. Average carbon and nitrogen contents in plants and in litter were 43.0% and 1.9% and 33.7% and 1.4%, respectively. In study sites at Baganuur, the carbon and nitrogen content of plant materials (plant plus litter) was $118.4\;g\;m^{-2}$ and $4.7\;g\;m^{-2}$ on 30 June 2005.

이탈리안 라이그래스의 종자배양에서 캘러스 형성 및 식물체 재분화 체계를 확립하기 위하여 기본배지와 탄소원의 종류별 식물체 재분화 정도 및 배양효율의 품종 간 차이 등에 대한 실험을 수행하여 얻어진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 기본배지의 종류에 따른 캘러스 형성 및 식물체 재분화율은 MS 배지가 N6 배지나 B5 배지보다 높게 나타났다. 배지 내에 첨가되는 탄소원의 종류에 따른 식물체 재분화율은 sucrose가 maltose보다 효과적이었다. 이탈리안 라이그래스의 종자배양에 있어서 모식물의 genotype에 따라 식물체 재분화 능력은 큰 차이를 보였으며, 공시품종 중 'Rio' 와 'Jeanne' 의 재분화 능력이 각각 38%와 56%로 가장 높았다.

From the analysis of fly ash, which contains unburned carbon, collected from the coal-fired Yong Hung power station, most particles are turned out to be hollow cenosphere and agglomerated soot particles. The sooting potential from six coals used in the plant were investigated with CPD model. The results show that the higher potential presented to Peabody, Arthur, Shenhua coals rather than other coals. It is necessary to measure the coal flow rates at each coal feeding pipe for four burner levels since they affect the extent of mixing of soot with oxidant, in turn, the oxidation rate of soot particles. The unbalance in coal flow rate was found in several coal pipes. We successfully reduced unburned carbon in ash by increasing the excess air and changing the SOFA yaw angle.

In an effort to optimize tissue culture conditions for genetic transformation of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.), an efficient and high-frequency plant regeneration system from seed-derived calli was established. Embryogenic calli induced on MS medium containing 3mg/L 2,4-D and 0.1mg/L BA had significantly improved regeneration ability. Plant regeneration rate was 92％ when embryogenic calli were cultured on N6 medium supplemented with 1mg/L 2,4-D and 3mg/L BA. Among three kinds of medium, MS and N6 medium were optimal for embryogenic callus induction and plant regeneration, respectively. Ho difference in callus induction frequency was observed among four cultivars of orchardgrass, however, "Roughrider" cultivar showed higher regenerability with the frequency of 61％. Addition of maltose to the regeneration medium as a carbon source dramatically increased regeneration frequency up to 69％. A short tissue culture period and high-frequency regeneration system would be beneficial for molecular breeding of orchardgrass through genetic transformation.

본 연구는 철피석곡의 PLB 기내 대량증식 방법에 대한 기초자료를 제공함으로써 다양한 분야의 소재활용 수요를 충족시키고 아울러 멸종위기에 처해 있는 철피석곡을 보존하고 수행하였다. 종자유래의 PLB 재 증식에는 H3P4 기본배지에 NAA $0.1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$과 kinetin $0.1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$를 혼용한 배지가 가장 적합하였다. H3P4 기본배지 내 탄소원으로 sucrose $10g{\cdot}L^{-1}$를 첨가 했을 때 PLB의 생장이 가장 양호하였다. 재 증식된 PLB로부터 shoot 형성율은 1/4MS 또는 H1P2 배지에 sucrose를 $10g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 첨가한 배지에서 가장 높았고 shoot의 초장도 길어졌다.

켄터키 블루그래스의 종자배양에서 캘러스 형성 및 식물체 재분화 체계를 확립하기 위하여 배지조성 및 배양조건 등에 따른 배양효율의 차이를 'Kenblue'를 공시품종으로 사용하여 수행한 실험의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 성숙종자로부터 캘러스 유도를 위한 생장조절제로는 2 mg/L 2,4-D와 0.2 mg/L BAP 조합이 가장 효과적이었으며, 유도된 캘러스로부터 식물체 재분화를 위해서는 1 mg/L NAA와 5mg/L kinetin 조합이 가장 효과적이었다. 캘러스 유도시 암상태에서 배양하는 것이 약한 광 상태에서 배양하는 것보다 효과적이었으며, 캘러스 유도와 식물체 재분화에 있어 기본배지로 N6 배지나 B5 배지보다 MS 배지를 사용하는 것이 식물체 재분화에 효과적이었다. 배지 내에 첨가되는 탄소원으로는 maltose가 sucrose 보다 효과적이었다.
