Schisandra chinensis is a fruit which is called Omija in South Korea. The Korean word Omija means "five flavors" (sweet, spicy, sour, bitter, and salty). The aim of his study was to investigate the correlation between growth characteristics and lignans (gomisin A, gomisin N, schisandrin) contents of Schisandra chinensis. The method for determining lignans was validated by measuring the linearity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), precision and accuracy using UPLC-UV. Growth characteristics of S. chinensis such as number of fruits per fruit bunch, length of fruit bunch, width of fruit bunch, fresh weight of fruit bunch, length of fruit, width of fruit, fresh weight of fruit, fresh weight of 30 fruits, and sugar contents of fruit were measured. From the results of correlation analysis, it was found that the contents of lignans showed a significantly negative correlation with fresh weight and sugar contents of fruit. These results will be used to study for quality control of S. chinensis fruit.

In order to determine the optimum planting density of Perilla frutescens which is suitable for the southern part of Korea, agronomic characters, yield of fresh stem, leaf and seed, and yield components were investigated grown in 1985 and 1986 at Mokpo Branch Station of Crop Experiment Station. The heading date was Aug. $14{\sim}15$ and the blooming period was Aug. $19{\sim}21$ regardless of the difference of plant density, but the longest stem length was 135cm in the plant density of $70{\time}40cm$ and the stem length in the plant density of $80{\time}40cm$ was 134cm. The quantity of fresh weight of stem and leaf and fresh weight of seed was high as 531kg/l0a in the plant density of $80{\time}40cm$. The positive correlation such as $0.7315^*,\;0.9024^{**}\;and\;0.7425^*$ were found between stem length and fresh weight of stem and leaf, stem length and fresh weight of seed, fresh weight of stem and leaf and fresh weight of seed and so high significance was recongnized. In the verification of significance of row spacing, the disperse of the stem length was $55.67^{**}$, that of fresh weight of stem and leaf is $268.50^*$, theat of fresh weight of seed was $16.00^{**}$ and high significance was recognized. In the verification of significance of intrarow spacing, the diperse of stem length was $54.21^{**}$, that of fresh weight of stem and leaf was $2,582.00^{**}$, that of fresh weight of seed was $48.00^{**}$ and then high significance was recognized. Accordingly, the proper plant density of perilla frutescens was 80cm of row $spacing{\time}40cm$ of intrarow spacing.

The effect of Milliwrap and Uniwrap attached to the lid on the growth and acclimation of lily growing in vitro was investigated. Milliwrap treatment increased the plant height 1.6 and 1.2 times higher than control in 'Dame Blanche' and '94-36', respectively, plant height of 'Dame Blanche' was 6.1㎝ and '94-36' line was 13.4 ㎝. Two treatments slightly inhibited the fresh weight in 'Dame Blanche', whereas Milliwrap and Uniwrap enhenced the fresh weight more than 30% in '94-36'. Leaf width (1.0 ㎝) of Milliwrap treatment was most wide, which was 2.5 times higher than that of control. In the fresh weight of bulblets, the fresh weight per bulblet of treatment was higher than control in '94-36', but the number of bulblets per scale were few in the treatment to control. In the air composition of culture vessel, ethylene content (0.03 ppm) was low in the Milliwrap treatment compared with the control. CO₂ content of control was higher than treatments as 0.11% and it was about 3 times to air condition of out side. The acclimation ratio of Milliwrap treatment was higher as 85.1% and control was similar with Uniwrap treatment.

These studies were carried out to clarify the effects of black P.E. mulching and planting density on the growth and rhizome yield of Jihwang #1, a new high yielding Rehmannia glutinosa variety. Emergence ratio was higher 3.1％ in mulching than in non-mulching, but was not affected by planting density. Plant height and fresh leaf weight per plant were increased by mulching and at lower planting density. However, the fresh leaf weight per unit area was increased at higher planting density. Dry rhizome weight was increased 28% in mulching than that of non-mulching. Dry rhizome weight per plant was increased, but that of per unit area was decreased at lower planting density.

The crops recommended for the plant factory system are diverse. The importance of planting density in the plant factory is being recognized. The objective of this study was to determine the optimal planting density for growth and quality of kohlrabi in a closed-type plant factory system. The kohlrabi was grown under fluorescent lamps and nutrient film technique system. The growth and quality of kohlrabi were investigated under four different planting densities ($22plants/m^2(15{\times}30cm)$, $27plants/m^2(15{\times}25cm)$, and $33plants/m^2(15{\times}20cm)$). There were no significant interactions between Shoot fresh and dry weights per plant or bulb stem fresh and dry weights per plant and planting density. Shoot fresh and dry weight per area or bulb stem fresh and dry weight per area were the highest at $33plants/m^2$. There were no significant interactions between plant height, leaf area, photosynthetic rate, hardness, and chlorophyll content and planting density. Significant differences in Bulb stem height and diameter, and brix were observed. Bulb stem height and diameter and brix of kohlrabi were the highest at $22plants/m^2$. Based on our results, we conclude that the optimal planting density is $33plants/m^2$ for growth of kohlrabi, however, the optimal planting density is $22plants/m^2$ for quality of kohlrabi in a closed-type plant factory system.

Recent development and enlargement of reclaimed lands along the sea shores required to explore alternatives to existing crops, which are suitable to grow well and to declare higher profits. The objectives of this study were to investigate yield-related parameters for development of new leafy vegetables, and to screen some candidates among New Zealand spinach genotypes which were collected in Korea. Initially all the collected genotypes were grown for 7 weeks in a greenhouse of the experiment field in Chungnam National University, and then transplanted into the field to measure morphological or physiological parameters (plant height, branch number, stem diameter, chlorophyll content, and maximum canopy diameter), and yield-related parameters (leaf number, leaf length, leaf width, fresh weight and dry weight). Those parameters were quantitatively measured at 1, 5 or 9 weeks after transplanting (WAT). Parameters exhibiting statistically significant difference among the accessions were plant height, branch number, maximum canopy diameter, chlorophyll content, and leaf length. In contrast to highly correlated parameters with fresh and dry weight obtained in salt-affected soil in the earlier report, fresh weight was correlated significantly with leaf length (r=0.72), leaf width (r=0.64), and canopy diameter(r=0.66), while dry weight was correlated significantly with plant height (r=0.46), leaf length (r=0.72), leaf width (r=0.73), fresh weight (r=0.79), chlorophyll content (r=0.47), and canopy diameter (r=0.87). Based on the significantly correlated with yield parameters, the candidate accessions which were ranked in top statistical groups include CNU06A01, CNU06A13, CNU06A26, CNU06A35, CNU06A38, and CNU06A55. In order to be cultivated in reclaimed lands, it is necessary to screen out salt tolerant accessions among the above high-yielding genotypes.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects on the growth and yield by the different seeding methods and cultivating root weight in Atractylodes macrocephata Koidz. Seeding distances were different such as 5${\times}$5 cm, 5${\times}$10 cm, 10${\times}$10 cm, 10${\times}$15 cm by the hand seeder and 15 cm seeding in drill. Emergence date, plant height were not significantly changed with seeding space, but the number of leaf, fresh weight of above-ground part and fresh weight of root were increased in the sparse seeding compared with the dense seeding. The highest fresh root yield was 1,012 kg/10 a at the 5${\times}$5 cm. Roots yield was increased in the sparse seeding compared with the dense seeding, but the highest number of roots above 16 g yield was observed at the 10${\times}$10 cm seeding distance. Emergence date was faster 1∼3 day root weight above 6 g than that root weight 5 g. The plant height, number of stem and fresh weight of above-ground part were more increased as the root weight was heavier. The growth of underground part were more increased as the root weight was heavier, yield was increased about 27％ to 112％ compared with root weight above 6 g than that 134.6 kg/10 a with root 5 g.

This study was conducted to refine a micropropagation method of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) in vitro. When young shoots were cultured on media with various concentrations of BA or TDZ alone, LS medium containing $5.0\;mgl^{-1}$ BA was found favorable for shoot proliferation from young shoots with a mean of 4.2 shoots. Using BA together with IAA, more shoots were obtained on LS medium containing $5.0\;mgl^{-1}$ BA and $1.0\;mgl^{-1}$ IAA with a mean of 5.7 shoots. In liquid medium, number of shoots and fresh weight per explant increased significantly. The best shoot proliferation and increasing of fresh weight were achieved on LS liquid medium containing $5.0\;mgl^{-1}$ BA and $1.0\;mgl^{-1}$ IAA with 6.9 shoots and more than 4,000 mg fresh weight. Of the different concentrations of LS salt, double strength of LS medium provided the highest shoot proliferation with 7.3 shoots, and fresh weight with 5,539 mg per explant. Shoot proliferation on LS medium containing $50\;gl^{-1}$ sucrose had better results with 8.7 shoots and 5,979 mg per explant in fresh weight than other conditions. In conclusion, the optimal level for shoot proliferation and biomass increase of water hyacinth was attained with the application of the double strength of LS medium containing $5.0\;mgl^{-1}$ BA, $1.0\;mgl^{-1}$ IAA and $50\;gl^{-1}$ sucrose.

This study was performed to investigate the growth characteristics and inorganic components of Codonopsis lanceolata regarding regional differences. The plant height of Japanese Codonopsis lanceolata was 373.6 cm, so it's revealed that it has more vigorous growth than Korean won. The flowering time of Korean Codonopsis lanceolata was 2 weeks faster than Japanese one. Total fresh weight of root was 41.0 g and 39.0 g for Korean and Japanese respectively, thus, no significance difference was found. However, regarding fresh weight, Korean one had a more fresh weight (35.4 g) of main root parts, but Japanese one had a more fresh weight (9.6 g) of the lateral root part. Each inorganic component was found more in the aboveground parts, regardless of the region and the content of K was the largest. Regarding the content of macroelements for each part of Codonopsis lanceolata, the content of Na, Mg, P, S, and Ca in Korean Codonopsis lanceolata was found the highest on the leaf, followed by stem and root. In the case of Japanese Codonopsis lanceolata, same result was found on the content of Mg and Ca, however, the highest content of Na and P was found in the stem.
