2009년 3월부터 2009년 9월까지 경상남도 양산시 일대의 관속식물 및 자원식물분포조사를 수행하였다. 본 조사를 통해 확인된 조사지역 내의 소산 관속식물은 90과 256속 376종 4아종 41변종 6품종으로 총 427분류군으로 확인되었다. 조사 지역에서 분포하고 있는 427분류군의 식물자원 유용도를 분석한 결과 식용자원식물이 167종류, 섬유용 자원식물이 6종류, 약용자원식물이 118종류, 관상용 자원식물이 52종류, 초지 자원식물이 132종류, 공업원료자원이 2종류, 염료용 자원식물이 98종류, 목재용 자원식물이 15종류, 용도가 밝혀지지 않은 식물이 101종류로 구분되었다. 이 중 식용자원, 약용자원, 초지자원, 염료용자원이 비교적 많이 분포하는 것으로 나타났다. 특기할만한 식물로는 한국 특산 관속식물이 총 16분류군, 환경부지정 특정식물종이 36분류군으로 각각 조사되었고, 귀화식물은 38분류군으로서 약 8.9%를 차지하였다. 조사지역의 식생은 비교적 양호한 편이었으나, 저지대 대부분이 농경지로 활용되며, 사찰과 많은 여가시설, 탐방객 등으로 인해 귀화식물의 분포가 빠르게 확산되고 있어 생태계의 교란이 우려되는 상황이다.

The study measures the resource use efficiency of diesel based power generation in the Maldives and analyses factors which influence efficiency levels. Stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) technique is applied to data on 30 plants over two year period from 2016 to 2017. The study finds that technical efficiency scores varies from 0.44 to 0.98 across power plants. About 33 percent of the plants have scores below the mean technical efficiency score of 0.87. Empirical results indicate ownership and use of solar photovoltaic (PV) have an influence on improving efficiency levels. Privately owned power plants in resort islands obtained higher technical efficiency scores compared to public and community owned power plants. This is a significant finding as the first study that used power plants in tourist sector in a comparative study. Size of the power plants was not found significant, but relatively small installed capacities can also be efficient. This finding is important because in many inhabited islands installed capacities remain oversized compared to the load. The benchmarking exercise offers model power plants that are relatively efficient, for other power plants and policy makers in small islands to learn from.

The inhibition of rat lens aldose reductase (AR) in vitro using methanol extracts from Korean folk plants was investigated. Among them, the extracts of Saussurea grandifolia and Rumex crispus showed highest inhibition of AR. $IC_{50}$ values of the extracts from S. grandifolia and R. crispus were demonstrated 0.07 and 0.05 mg/ml, respectively. Korean folk plants such as S. grandifolia and R. crispus has a possibility of new natural resources for the inhibition of AR.

This study was performed to investigate the flora and plant resources of Mt. Woosanbong (537.8 m) from April to October 2002. The collected vascular plants were composed of all 389 taxa including cultivated species, and classified into 329 species, 2 subspecies, 53 varieties, and 5 forms of 248 genera under 81 families. Six taxa of the Korean endemic plants and 4 taxa of the rare and endangered plants were also distributed in this mount. Resource plants were categorized into edible 181, pasturing 160, medicinal 136, stainable 94, ornamental 77, timber 22, fiber 5 and industrial 4 taxa, respectively. Floristic geography of the investigated area was regarded as the boundary between middle and southern parts in floristic pattern of the Korean Peninsula.

Zygotic embryo culture was performed to propagate evergreen oak, Quercus myrsinifolia, which has recalcitrant seeds and is difficult to propagate by cuttings. Zygotic embryos appeared in WPM medium after 14 days, and after 56 days, they developed into complete plants with cotyledons and roots. The medium suitable for zygotic embryo culture was 1/4 WPM medium, showing a shoot growth of 2.43 cm and root growth of 8.7 cm after 8 weeks of culture. As a result of investigating the effect of GA₃ on the growth of plants germinated from zygotic embryos through GA₃ treatment, the best growth was shown in 0.5 mg/l GA₃ treatment. The in vitro rooting and growth of IBA-treated zygotic embryo-derived plants were good in the 0.5 mg/l IBA treatment and rooting and shoot growth were not observed at higher concentrations. And the callus induction rate also increased as the concentration of IBA increased. Plants grown in vitro were transferred to a plastic pot containing artificial soil and acclimatized in a greenhouse for about 4 weeks, resulting in more than 90% survival. As a result of this study, the zygotic embryo culture method was confirmed to be effective for mass propagation of Q. myrsinifolia. The results of this study are expected to contribute significantly to the mass propagation of elite Q. myrsinifolia.
