The tetrahydropahnatine alkaloid was assayed against spore germination of some saprophytic and pathogenic fungi e.g., Alternaria solani, A. brassicicola, A. brassicae, A. alternata, Erysiphe pisi, Curvularia lunata, C. pallescens, C. maculans, Curvularia species, Colletotrichum species, C. musae, Helminthosporium echinoclova, H. pennisetti, H. spiciferum, and Heterosporium sp. It inhibite spore germination of all the fungi tested. Colletotrichum spp. Curvularia lunata, Helminthosporium spiciferum and Heterosporium sp. were most sensitive as complete inhibition of spore germination was observed at very low concentration(200 ppm).

This study was carried out to compare the characteristics of seed germination and the first stage of growth in Cynanchum wilfordii (Maxim.) by different light conditions such ass fluorescent light, dark and light emitting diode (LED). There was not much difference from the germination rate of C. wilfordii (Maxim.) in different light conditions for 10 days. The highest of germination rate occurred over 91.11 percentage by LED red condition at $26^{\circ}C$. Also mean germination velocity and promptness index were represented the highest results of 2.3 ea/day and 52.67 under red light, respectively. But mean germination time under both LED red and blue light was represented low data that it takes over three days for germinating of seed. Even though handling both LED red and blue lights, the germination uniformity was not constant. These results may help our understanding of variations in germination characteristics for C. wilfordii (Maxim.) seeds treated under different light conditions.

Biological activities of decursin and decursinol, natural coumarin derivatives, on the germination, growth and adventitious root formation of several plants were observed. In 10 ppm of decursin or decursinol, the growth of Avena coleoptile sections was inhibited, and the activity of IAA-oxidase was gradually enhanced by the increase of its concentrations. Inhibition effect on seed germination was observed from 100 ppm of each chemcials, and the activity of amylase in the germinating seeds was also gradually decreased. However, in the higher concentrations of decursin, the inhibited germination rate of wheat was slightly reduced. Decursin and decursinol also promoted the adventitious root formation in seeds of Phaseolus vulgaris.

In order to establish utilijzation of medicinal herb as vegetable by Hydroponics, the present studies were conducted to investigate the effect of temperature and light on the seed germination ofmedicinal herb. The results obtained are summaried as follows. The lower and upper temperaturelimit for herb germination was 10'c and 30'c within which the optimum was 20'C. Germinationof medicinal herb was similar in light and dark condition.

본 연구는 각시괴불나무 종자의 휴면유형과 발아특성을 구명하기 위하여 수행되었다. 수분흡수 실험결과, 각시괴불나무 종자는 수분흡수가 원활히 이루어졌다. 따라서, 물리적 휴면은 가지지 않는 것으로 판단된다. 각시괴불나무 종자는 탈리 시점에 미숙배를 가지고 있으며, 발아직전까지 배/종자 비율이 약 46% 증가하였다. 온도실험결과, $5^{\circ}C$에서는 발아가 전혀 이루어지지 않았다. $20^{\circ}C$에서는 파종 후 1주부터 발아가 시작되었으며 최종 발아율은 2주차에 86.7%였다. $15^{\circ}C$에서는 파종 후 2주부터 발아를 시작하였으며, 최종 발아율은 4주차에 75.0%였다. $25^{\circ}C$에서 파종 후 1주부터 발아가 시작되었으며 최종 발아율은 19주차에 48.3%였다. 결론적으로, 각시괴불나무 종자의 발아를 위한 최적온도는 가장 높은 최종 발아율과 가장 짧은 평균 발아 일수를 나타낸 $20^{\circ}C$이다. 각시괴불나무 종자는 $5^{\circ}C$를 제외한 모든 온도에서 4주 이내에 발아하였기 때문에 생리적 휴면은 관찰되지 않았다. 따라서, 각시괴불나무 종자는 오직 형태적 휴면만을 가지는 것으로 판단되었다.

The effects of prochloraz on membrane permeability and germination of uredospores of Puccinia recondita were investigated to determine its potential mode of action on wheat leaf rust control activity. Disease control activity of ergosterol biosynthesis inhibitors (EBIs) and their activities on uredospore membrane permeability and germination were examined with wheat leaf rust pathogen, both in vitro and in vivo. While wheat leaf rust was not controlled by prochloraz, electrolytic leakage and spore germination of P. recondita uredospore was the highest with the use of prochloraz among the eight fungicides tested. Prochloraz stimulated uredospore of P. recondita to germinate at a higher ratio. Although certain EBIs, such as hexaconazole, showed excellent control activity, their effects on uredospore membrane permeability and germination was much inferior to prochloraz. Therefore, results of this study suggest that effects of EBIs on membrane permeability and germination of uredospore are not always correlated with their disease control activity.

Application of fertilizers such as urea, diammonium phosphate (DAP) and muriate of potash in soil adversely affected the spore germination of Arthrobotrys dactyloides. Amendment of soil with urea at the concentrations of 1.0%, 0.5% and 0.1 % completely inhibited spore germination and direct trap formation on the conidium, whereas muriate of potash delayed and reduced the spore germination even at the lowest concentration. DAP also inhibited spore germination at 1.0% concentration, while at lower concentration the percentage of spore germination was reduced. Application of neem cake at the concentration of 0.5% also inhibited spore germination after 24 h of amendment. The inhibitory effect of neem cake was reduced after 15 days of amendment, while after 30 days after amendment the inhibitory effect was completely lost and the spore germinated by direct trap as in unamended soil. Nematodes were not attracted to ungerminated spores after 24 h of amendment. After 15 days of amendment nematodes were attracted to agar blocks containing fewer germinated spores after 24 h of incubation but after 48 h of incubation large number of nematodes were attracted and trapped by the germinated spores with direct traps. After 30 days of amendment, larger number of nematodes were attracted and trapped by direct traps.

The test of germination has been used as a good indicator to assess the toxicity of chemicals to plant. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of PAHs, anthracene and phenanthrene, on germination ratio, germination index and germination time of barley, tall fescue and alfafa. Anthracene and phenathrene induced to decrease the seedling length and increase the germination time of the experimental plants. But they did not affect the maximum germination ratio. While it was not correlated between seedling length and final germination ratio, it was shown a close relationship between seedling length and mean germination time of the plants. These results suggested that the mean of germination time and seedling growth could be useful to exmine the phyto -toxicological effect of PAHs. The mixture of anthracene and phenanthrene was examined to investigate the combined effect on seedling length; the mixture induced the reduction of seedling. This was meant that the mixture toxicity of PAHs might be not shown in the sum of each chemical toxicity.

The present study has been undertake to obtain the fundatmental data of optimum germination condition and to establish storage time for artificial pollinationin Codonopsis lancelata pollen. In vitro condition for germination of freshly collected and stored pollen were examined. The optium temperature for germination of fresh pollen was $25^{\circ}C$. The optium sucrose concentration in the medium ranged from 30 to 40 % and optium pH 6.0% for pollen germination. The rate of pollen germination accelerated considerably in the medium with 1% agar. 30% sucrose, and pH 6. C. lanceolata pollen remained viable for 15 days when stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ with silica gel as desiccant.

The alkaloid fuyuziphine was isolated from the whole plant of Fumaria indica. It had inhibitive effect against spore germination of some plant pathogenic fungi (Collectotrichum sp., C. gloeosporioides, C. falcatum, Curvularia maculans, C. lunata, Erysiphe cichoracearum, Helminthosporium pennisetti, Oidium erysiphoides, Ustilago cynodontis, Alternaria chieranthi, A. mel-ongenae, A. brassicicola and A. solam). Curvularia lunata, Oidium erysiphoides, Alternaria brassicicola and A. solani did not germinate at 750 and 1000 ppm and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, C. falcatum, Curvularia maculans were inhibited at 1000 ppm for 24 hr incubation. Germination of most fungi was significantly inhibited at $100{\sim}750ppm$.
