Spore forming actinobacteria (sporoactinobacteria) isolated from soils with an acidic pH in Pinus thunbergii forests and coal mine waste were subjected to taxonomic characterization. For the isolation of acidophilic actinobacteria, acidified starch casein agar (pH adjusted to 4-5) was used. The numbers of actinobacteria growing in acidic media were between $3.2{\times}10^4$ and $8.0{\times}10^6$ CFU/g soil. Forty three acidophilic actinobacterial strains were isolated and their 16S rDNA sequences were determined. The isolates were divided into eight distinctive phylogenetic clusters within the variation encompassed by the family Streptomycetaceae. Four clusters among them were assigned to the genus Streptacidiphilus, whereas the remaining four were assigned to Streptomyces. The clusters belonging to either Streptomyces or Streptacidiphilus did not form a monophyletic clade. The growth pH profiles indicated that the representative isolates grew best between pH 5 and 6. It is evident from this study that acidity has played a critical role in the differentiation of the family Streptomycetaceae, and also that different mechanisms might have resulted in the evolution of two groups, Streptacidiphilus (strict acidophiles) and neutrotolerant acidophilic Streptomyces. The effect of geographic separation was clearly seen among the Streptacidiphilus isolates, which may be a key factor in speciation of the genus.

The bacteria of red colonies isolated from soil were identified as Serratia marcescens. The best solvent for pigment extraction was n-buthanol and the pigment was identified as prodigiosene. The extracted pigment was stable on temperature and light but not on acidity. The redpigment color changed into red in alkaline solution. The maximum absorbancy of pigment was 466 nm in alkaline condition and 540 nm in acid condition. And the pigment formed single spot on the TLC(starch). By the result of infra red spectrum, the red pigment has the same absorption pattern comparing with, the prodigisin produced by S. marcescens strain Nima. It was confirmed that the pigment was secondary metabolite and that the maximal peak of production appeared at 30 hrs after the inoculation, when the bacterial growth was in statinary state. Referring to the effect of temperature, the pigment was not formed at $36^{\circ}C$ and the optimal temperature for both of bactrial growth and pigmentation was $30^{\circ}C$. The optimal range of pH for pigmentation was 5.0 and under the condition the bacterial growth was not affected at all. Examining the effects of light, the bacterial pigment ation was more increased in darkness than in visible light.

This study was carried out in the Tropical Plant Resources Research Center of Korea National Arboretum to determine the optimum edaphic environment for the growth of tropical and subtropical plants. The physicochemical properties of artificial substrates and the growth characteristics of tropical and subtropical plants were investigated. Subtropical plants exhibited a high growth rate when cultivated in a substrate of Dry Zone that had physical properties similar to those of arid native soil. Mediterranean plants showed a low growth rate when grown in a substrate of Subtropical Zone that required changes in acidity. The substrate of Tropical Zone had high organic matter and mineral contents and therefore had good physical properties:this substrate has a good environment for the stimulation of the growth of tropical plants. Our results indicate that the chemical properties such as pH and mineral contents of most artificial substrates need to be more urgently improved than their physical properties in order to ensure better growth of tropical and subtropical plants. Initial management strategies for the construction of new tropical greenhouses were formulated, and data from monitoring studies will be continuously gathered and incorporated in the manual to keep it updated.

Sandy loam plots of pH 5.5, which was created by the reclamation of highlands in Yongin county, Kyeonggi province, was selected for the present experimental study. Sugar beet was cultured in these plots by treating them with calcium hydroxide and 3 replications to maintain pH 5.5, 6.4, 6.8, 7.2, and 7.6, respectively. The growth and yield of sugar beet were investigated and the results obtained showed a great deal of boron deficiency. The growth in its early stage was favorable in high pH plots, while no significant difference was observed in sugar content, root weight and sugar production at the time of harvest in each treated plot. The tendency of sugar accumulation appeared to be identical in terms of pattern in each treated plot; i.e. sugar was accumulated until early September but declined momentarily from the middle of September and then the sugar accumulation was resumed from the middle of October. The number of individuals in boron deficiency was larger in high pH plots and the condition of such boron deficiency was also severe. The result of analysis of boron contained in plant body revealed that the boron content of individuals caused boron deficiency by water culture and that occurred in the plots was small alike. The appearance of boron deficiency is characterized by the emergence of black stripes on the surface of the basal part of petiole, severe necrosis of young leaves in the area of growing point and severe wrinkles. Therefore it is felt necessary to pay particular attention to boron deficiency in the culture of sugar beet in our country.

This study was carried out to investigate the characteristics of acid deposition by stemflow, throughfall, rainfall and $SO_{2}$ in the industrial, urban and rural areas where were affected by the acid rain areas air pollution in Pinus thunbergii than Quercus spp. forest. As the stemflow pH in industrial and urban area were lowed that of rural area, the result industrial and urban, and correlation of negative ($r=-0.9415^{**}$) between pH and EC. The concentration of acid ion by stemflow, throughfall, rainfall were high $SO_{4}^{2-}$ ion at industrial areas, especially of $NO_{3}^{-}$ ion at urban areas. The concentration of basic ion all rain fall were high $Ca^{2+},\;Na^{+}$ ion at industrial areas, but there were high $Ca^{2+}$, $Na^{+}$ ion at urban areas. The concentration of $SO_{2}$ at survey areas were high $SO_{2}$ concentration at industrial and urban areas, but there was low at rural areas. There was correlation of negative ($r=-0.8007^{**}$ between pH and $SO_{2}$ concentration at survey areas. Soil acidity was also affected by stemflow and showed sigificantly low pH in industerial and urban areas.

Soil acidity or alkalinity are serious limitations for crop production. The purpose of this study was to clarify the negative effects of extreme pH stress (low and high) on alfalfa vegetative growth (VG) and biomass accumulation (BA). Two-week-old alfalfa seedlings were exposed to different pH (4.0, 4.5, 7.0, 8.0 and 8.5, respectively) levels for 72 hours. Alfalfa grown at pH 4.0 and 8.5 significantly reduced VG and BA, wherein as neutral pH (7.0) comparably exhibited better growth and biomass yield. These results indicate that extreme acidic or alkaline level are critical limiting factors for growth and biomass yield in alfalfa.

풋거름 작물인 크로탈리라아의 토양환원이 후작물 딸기 '설향'의 생육과 수량 그리고 토양 중 무기태질소 함량에 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 하였다. 시험은 무질소구, 크로탈라리아 처리구, 크로탈라리아 및 50% 요소처리구, 100% 요소처리구 등 4처리를 두었다. 딸기 재배를 위한 표준 질소 시비량의 100%와 50% 질소 공급량은 각각 8.6 및 $4.3kg{\cdot}10a^{-1}$이었다. 크로탈라리아는 2011년 6월 17일에 파종하여 37일간 재배한 후 토양에 다시 환원하였으며, 환원된 크로탈라리아 질소량은 $10.4kg{\cdot}10a^{-1}$이었다. 딸기는 9월 9일에 정식 후 255일간 재배하였다. 크로탈라리아의 토양환원이 크로탈라리아 및 50% 요소처리구와 100% 요소처리구와 비교하여 딸기의 산도에서 유의성은 없었지만 당도와 산도를 증가시키는 결과를 보였다. 하지만 크로탈라리아 처리는 최대의 수량을 나타낸 크로탈라리아 및 50% 요소처리구와 100% 요소처리구와 비교하여 딸기의 생육과 수량은 감소하였다. 딸기 재배기간 동안 토양의 무기태 질소 함량은 크로탈라리아 처리에서는 꾸준히 감소하여 딸기 재배가 끝나는 무렵에는 $24mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$를 나타낸 반면에 크로탈라리아 및 50% 요소처리구와 100% 요소처리구에서의 토양의 무기태 질소 함량은 $35-50mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$수준을 유지하였다. 딸기의 질소 이용효율은 크로탈라리아 처리구에서 15.1%이었고 크로탈라리아 및 50% 요소처리구와 100% 요소처리구의 질소 이용효율은 각각 20.3%와 36.6%로서 크로탈라리아의 질소 이용효율이 크로탈라리아 및 50% 요소처리구와 100% 요소처리구의 질소 이용효율보다 낮았다. 이러한 결과로부터 크로탈라리아의 토양환원만으로는 딸기의 최대 수량을 얻지 못할 수 있다. 그러므로 크로탈라리아의 토양환원 후 추가적인 질소 공급이 필요하다는 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 크로탈라리아 토양 환원시 표준 질소 시비 추천량의 50%를 화학 질소 비료로 추가로 투입할 경우 100% 요소처리구와 비슷한 토양의 무기태 질소 함량 $35-50mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$ 수준을 유지함으로써 딸기의 최대수량을 얻을 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
