Whitening effect, which decreases the skin pigmentation, is the one of important targets in cosmetics. This study was investigated the effects of Scirpi rhizoma on ant ioxidation and melanogenesis. S.rhizoma is a rhizome of Scirpus fluviatilis G. a perennial Cyperaceae species of wide occurrence in Asia, Europe, Africa and North America. S.rhizoma shown scavenging activities of free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) with the IC50 of 638${\mu}g/ml$ against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and 21.7${\mu}g/ml$ against superoxide radicals in the xanthine/xanthine oxidase system, respectively. S.rhizoma treatment (48 h) suppressed the biosynthesis of melanin up to 27% and reduced tyrosinase activity up to 31% at 100${\mu}g/ml$ in B16 melanoma cells. S.rhizoma was also able to significantly inhibit tyrosinase and TRP-1 expres- sion in protein level. These results suggest that S.rhizoma inhibited melanin biosynthesis by regulating tyrosinase activity and expression in B16 melanoma cells. Therefore S.rhizoma may be useful as new whitening agent due to the antioxidant effect and the inhibitory effect against melanogenesis.

30년 전 석호를 간척한 후 농경을 포기하여 자연 천이가 진행되고 있는 강원도 양양군 동해안의 군개 습지에서 물 및 토양환경과 관련하여 습지 식생을 조사하였다. 이 습지에서는 해수의 유입이 차단되어 거의 담수화되었으며, 수심과 토양 유기물 함량의 공간적 변이가 다른 환경요인에 비하여 상대적으로 컸다. 다변량 분석인 detrended canonical correspondence analysis를 실시한 결과 습지의, 식물군집 구조는 주로 수심 혹은 지형의 높이와 토양 유기물함량에 의하여 결정되었다. 군개 습지에서는 다양한 정수식물 식생이 발달하였다 갈대, 산조풀, 삿갓사초, 부처꽃과 같은 종은 전체 습지에 넓게 분포하였고, 애기부들과 큰고랭이와 같은 수생식물은 수심이 깊고 낮은 지형에, 미국가막사리, 며느리배꼽과 같은 황무지 식물은 토양 유기물함량이 많은 육상에 가까운 곳에, 통보리사초, 백령풀, 곰솔, 눈양지꽃과 같은 사구식생은 높은 지형에서 발달하였다. 교란된 군개 습지를 보존, 복원하기 위해서는 자연 석호의 식생 분석으로부터 복원 원형을 도출하고 자연 습지 수위로 복원하고 바다와 수문을 연결하는 것이 중요하다고 판단되었다.

Understanding vegetation structure and the relationship with environmental factors has been crucial for restoration and conservation of riparian zones. In this study, we conducted field survey in a riparian zone of Namhan River in South Korea both before and after flooding in order to understand temporal and spatial variations of riparian vegetation. There were significant temporal and spatial variations in species composition, and distribution patterns of vegetation were different along a gradient of elevation above the water level. At low elevation, Zizania latifolia was dominant throughout the field survey periods, and Bidens frondosa began to grow late and dominated both in post-flooding 1 and 2. Prior to flooding, Scirpus radicans and Polygonum thunbergii were widely distributed at middle elevation, while Artemisia vulgaris, Phragmites australis, and Miscanthus sacchariflorus were dominant at high elevation. After flooding, P. thunbergii was dominant at middle elevation with most other species decreasing, and more invasive or pioneer plants, including Artemisia princeps, H. scandens, and Sicyos angulatus, were observed at high elevation. Species composition and distribution patterns were homogeneous at low elevation, whereas dynamic variations of vegetation were observed both temporally and spatially at higher elevations. Elevation and distance from the water front were the most principal factors governing vegetation structure. Furthermore, soil physicochemical properties were also found to determine species composition and distribution patterns. These results indicate that vegetation structure in the riparian zones is formed by the combined effects of hydrological regime and soil physicochemical properties, inherent characteristics of species, and interspecific competition. Understanding of temporal and spatial variations of riparian vegetation may provide useful insights into ecological restoration and conservation of the vegetation within the riparian zones.

This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of two different formulations and application timings of benzobicyclon+penoxsulam+pyrzaosulfuron-ethyl (BPP) in rice field. BPP granule (GR) and tablet (TB) controlled more than 90% of four weed species 10 and 15 days after sowing in direct seeding when compared with untreated control. BPP TB was highly effective to control herbicide resistant Scirpus juncoides and Monochoria vaginalis both 10 and 15 days after transplanting (DAT). BPP GR controlled 94.0 and 96.5% of S. juncoides and M. vaginalis, respectively 10 DAT, but its efficacy decreased to 88.5 and 49.8% respectively 15 DAT. When compared with untreated control, no visual injuries were detected at 255 and 510 g a.i./ha of BPP. The yield of rice increased in both BPP GR and TB in transplanting and direct seeding rice cultivation when compared with untreated control. Based on these data, early application (10 DAT) of BPP GR and TB can be applied to provide effective weed control, especially in the field infested with herbicide resistant weed species.

In an attempt to deduce which plants might have been used for their anticancer activities in traditional oriental herb medicine, 127 prescriptions were selected from 'Dong-Eui-Bo-Gam', the Classic Handbook of Korean Traditional Medicine, written by $H_{UH}$ Jun and published in 1613. These are the prescriptions indicated for the systemic treatment of various tumors and some conditions resembling tumors, e.g. inflammatory masses and indurations, and they include 150 natural products of plant origin. The frequency of appearance of each medicinal plant in these selected prescriptions was compared with the frequency of its appearance in all prescriptions listed in 'Bang-Yak-Hap-Pyon', another popular Oriental Medicine Formulary in Korea, written by $H_{WANG}\;Pil-Su$ in 1885. From the latter book, $H_{ONG}$ has recently enumerated frequencies of 235 medicinal plants included in a total of 467 prescriptions. Chi-square tests revealed that 11 plant remedies appear with significantly higher frequency in the prescriptions for "tumors", and 10 for "inflammations". The plants with potential antitumor activities, in decreasing order of statistical significance, are Scirpus maritimus, Curcuma zedoaria, Prunus persica, Rheum coreanum, Foeniculum vulgare, Rhus vernifera, Daphne pseudogenkwa, Galarhaeus sieboldiana, Croton tiglium, Raphanus sativus and Galarhaeus pekinensis. The drugs for potential antibacterial or anti-inflammatory activities are Olibanum(Frankincense), Forsythia coreana, Lonicera japonica, Gleditchia officinalis, $M_{YRRH}$, Trichosanhes kirilowii, Astragalus membranaceus, Rheum coreanum, Platycodon grandiflorum and Fritillaria verticillata. Despite the uncertainties involved in the terminology of various diseases used in pre-modern medicine, and the reservations about the efficacy of remedies used for those diseases, it would be worthwhile to investigate these few selected plants for anticancer, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory or antifungal effects, employing modern scientific methodology.

부들, 갈대, 줄, 물고랭이 등의 정수식물을 이용하여 5개월 동안 용기재배로 산업폐수 정화용 정수식물을 선발하였다. 전기전도도가 3.0 dS/m이고, NH₄/sup ＋/-N 농도가 130 ppm인 산업폐수를 관수하였을때 증발산량(ETc)이 감소하지 않는 정수식물은 부들과 줄로서 내염성이 강하였고, 갈대는 폐수처리에 의하여 배양액재배시 보다 증발산량이 30% 감소하였으나 증발산량의 절대치가 가장 높아 수분요구량이 매우 높은 식물로 판명되었다. 부들과 줄의 건물생산량은 증발산량의 경우에서와 같이 배양액 관수구보다 오히려 산업폐수 관수구에서 높았고, 갈대는 폐수처리에 의하여 건물생산량이 14% 감소하였음에도 불구하고 4종식물중에 건물생산량이 가장 높았다. 물고랭이는 산업폐수를 관수하였을 때 건물생산량이 71.3% 감소하여 내염성과 고농도 암모니아성 질소에 대한 내성이 극히 불량한 것으로 나타났다. 줄과 갈대는 산업폐수 관수시에 총건물중과 조직내 질소 축적물이 부들이나 물고랭이 보다 훨씬 높아 단위면적당 질소 흡수제거량이 큰 정수식물로 판명되었다.

벼-콩 답전윤환재배지에서의 잡초발생동태를 구명하기 위하여 수행하였던 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 벼 건답직파재배지에서는 피의 우점현상이 두드러졌으며, 연작에 의해서 계속 증가하는 경향이었고, 콩재배지에서는 피, 좀명아주 및 (좀)바랭이가 문제잡초로 제기되었다. 2. 벼 건답직파재배에서 콩 재배로 또는 콩재배에서 벼 건답직파재배로 답전윤환(畓田輪換)을 함으로써 잡초의 발생량을 크게 감소시킬 수 있었으며, 너도방동사니, 올방개, 올챙이고랭이, 벗풀 및 수생잡초의 발생이 크게 억제되는 경향이었다. 3. 답전윤환재배시(畓田輪換栽培時) 동일 작물을 2년 이상 연속재배(連續我培)하면 잡초의 발생량이 크게 증가하였다.
