In order to investigate developmental habit and morphology of maize tillers, time and location of tiller development. number of tillers per plant, tiller angle, height and diameter of tillers and root systems of tillers were examined under field condition for maize with tillers. Materials used were mostly from Korean local lines and a few lines from other countries were also included for comparison. The time of the first tiller development was about 18 to 20 days after emergence when planted on May in Yusong. The second tiller appeared about 4 to 5 days after the first tiller appeared. The tiller number per plant varied with lines and hybrids and ranged from two to ten. The location of tiller development was usually basal nodes of the main stem. Each tiller appeared to have its own root system. The angle between tillers and main stem was variable depending upon the maizes and the tiller angle could be classified into three categories. The height of tillers was also variable and seemed to be under genetic control. The most productive tillers were found among the Korean local derivatives.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the growth response of 3 grasses to seed coating with chitosan solution and the attempt was made to estimate adequate seed coating concentrations of chitosan solution in each grass for the growth to be stimulated. Three species used in this experiment were orchardgrass, tall fescue and reed canarygrass. Six different seed coating concentrations of chitosan solution were applied as 0%(control), 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1% and 1.0%, respectively. the results were obtained as follows; 1. Dry weight of tiller(WT), leaf area(LA), dry weight of leaf(LW), dry weight of stem(SW), dry weight of shoot(SHW), biological yield(BY) and C/F ratio were significantly different between species. 2. Number of tillers per plant(NT), dry weight of tiller(WT), dry weight of leaf(LW), dry weight of root(RW), dry weight of shoot(SHW), biological yield(BY) and T/R ration were significantly different between seed coating concentrations of chitosan solution. 3. The adequate seed coating concentrations of chitosan solution for the growth stimulating effect were different between species. The highest values of yield components and dry weight of plant parts were obtained at 1% in orchardgrass and tall fescue, and 0.05% in reed canarygrass, respectively. 4. Growth stimulating effect of seed coating in each species were different. The highest values were obtained in leaf area(LA), dry weight of leaf(LW), dry weight of root(RW), dry weight of shoot(SHW) and dry weight of biological yield(BY) in orchardgrass. The values of dry weight of stem(SW) and C/F ration were highest in reed canarygrass. 5. An increase in number of tillers per plant(NT), dry weight of leaf(LW), dry weight of stem(SW) and dry weight of root(RW) according to seed coating was attributed to the increase in dry weight of shoot(SHW). Among the aboved increasing factors, the dry weight of leaf(LW) was a main factor for the increase in dry weight of shoot(SHW). 6. An increase in dry weight of leaf(LW), dry weight of stem(SW) and dry weight of root(RW) according to seed coating was attributed to the increase in biological yield(BY). Both the dry weight of leaf(LW) and dry weight of root(RW) were main factors for the increase in biological yield(BY).

In order to know growing habit of the maize bearing tillers, IK//IRI/B68 with tillers was grown and compared with Jinjoo Ok which is not tillering, and several parameters were measured for analysis. The results obtained were summarized as follows. 1. The plant height and fresh weight of IK//IRI/B68 were lower than those of Jinjoo Ok until the tasseling stage of IK/ /IRI/B68, while then plant height and fresh weight of IK//IRI/B68 were higher than those of Jinjoo Ok after the tasseling stage of IK//IRI/B68. 2. The average number of tillers per plant of IK//IRI/B68 at maturity was 3.7 and the average tiller height of IK//IRI/B68 was almost the same as the height of the main stem. 3. The dry weight of IK//IRI/B68 at the early growing stage was lower than the check hybrid Jinjoo Ok, while it was higher than Jinjoo Ok at the later growing stage. 4. The LAI of IK//IRI/B68 after full expansion of the leaves was greater than that of Jinjoo Ok The LAIs of IK//IRI/B68 and Jinjoo Ok were 12.6 and 5.8, respectively. 5. The CGR of Jinjoo Ok was greater than that of IK//IRI/B68 until earey July while the CGR of Jinjoo Ok was lower than that of IK//IRI/B68 as the tillers of IK//IRI/B68 were fully developed. 6. The LAR and RGR of IK//IRI/B68 were greater than those of Jinjoo Ok until mid-July. The RGR of IK//IRI/B68 seemed to be affected by both NAR and LAR. The RGR of Jinjoo Ok seemed to be affected by LAR.

Screenhouse experiments were conducted to find out the varietal difference in ovipositional preference of the striped rice borer moths (Chilo suppressalis W.) on eight varieties of rice and its association with several plant morphological characters. The results indicated the strong preference of the moths for ovipositing on several varieties. The varieties Tongil (Suweon 213-1), Yushin, Jinheung and TKM-6 had comparatively more egg masses and more eggs than the varieties IR-26, IR-747, Rexoro and Juckna. The strong ovipositional preference of moths of Tongil, as compared to the resistant variety TKM-6 and the susceptible variety Rexoro, was. always consistent in this study whenever the number of tillers were uniformed and each two varieties were paired. It could be concluded that the moths definitely preferred Tongil among the test varieties. There was not any significant correlations between the ovipositional preference and the plant characters; such as number of tillers per plant, plant height, external diameter of stem, and size of leaf. The cause of strong perference of the moths for ovipositing on short type varieties Tongil and Yushin were still suspectable.

To find out the effects of seed maturity and seeding rate of two planting times on the seed emergence and silage and seed yields of rye, a local variety 'Paldanghomir' harvested 30 and 45 days after heading(DAH) were planted at five seeding rates on October(optimum) and November(late) in 1985. At the optimum planting, number of seedlings per unit area and number of tillers per plant were affected by seeding rate, but not by the seed maturities. However, at the late planting, number of seedlings per unit area and number of tillers per plant wer higher in the seed harvested 45 DAH, and they were not correlated with seeding rate in both seeds harvested 30 and 45 DAH. Heading date was 2 or 3 days earlier in the seeds harvested 45 DAH in both planting times. Silage yield was higher at the optimum planting and increased as seeding rate increased in both planting times. Number of spike and 1000~seed weight were higher at the optimum planting than late planting and higher in the seed harvested 45 DAH than 30 DAH in late planting, but were not different among seeding rates. Seed yield at optimum planting showed no difference between seed maturities and among seeding rates, and recommandable seeding rate was 600 seeds per $m^2$. At late planting the seed yield of the seed harvested 45 DAH in the seeding rate over 750 seeds per $m^2$ approached to the yield of the optimum planting. The seed harvested 30 DAH was unstable because of extremely low emergence rate and yield even at the higher seeding rate in late planting. planting.

The purpoes of this thesis is to study the effect of the variation of the beginning date of the suspension of irrigation and the length of intermittent suspension period of irrigation in the paddy field on the growth and yield of rice, so as the provide a critical limit of saving irrigation water and an irrigation method to prevent drough damage in rice cultivation. In this experiment, the rice variety adopted was NONGRIM No.29. There were seven main test plot, each test plot having a different beginning date of the suspension of irrigation. A main test plot was susdivided into five small test plots, each having a different length of the suspension period of irrigation. The results obtained in this experiment are summarized as follows: 1. The number of tillers is controlled by the treatment of the suspension of irrigation, its beginning date being early of late. The reductive effects of beginning dates of suspension upon the number of tillers. investigated on July 30, are about 84% for the treatment suspended on July 8, 87% on July 12, and 92% on July 19, respectively, in comparison with the standard plot. However. the suspenion treatments after the foregoing dates does not affect the control of their numbers. On the other hand, the lengths of intermittent suspension periods influence highly on the number of tillers to be restrained considerably, the decrease ratio ranging from 91% to 80% Both treatments on dates and periods are so intermingled that the restraining effects of suspension periods become greater as the dates of its beginning are earlier. 2. The elongation of plant hieghts also restrained considerably by the longer periods and earlier dates of suspension treatments of irrigation. Especially, the effects of the lengths of suspension periods become more serious. 3. Heading dates are delayed by two to five days through the suspension treatments of irrigation. However, the heading stage ends almost on the same day without relation to the differences between the irrigation suspension treatments. In the test plot where the suspension date of irrigation comes after the young panicle forming stage, the heading stage ends one or two days later than in the standard test plot. 4. Both culm lengths and panicle lengths show significant differences in their values, i.e., their lengths are shorter, as the begining dates of irrigation suspension are earlier and the suspension periods are longer. 5. The earlier the beginning date and the longer the period of irrigation suspension, the less is the number of panicles per hill in comparison with the standard plot. 6. The earlier the beginning date and the longer the period of irrigation suspension, the higher is the significant difference in the number of kernels per panicle in comparison with that in the standard test plot, i.e., the less is the number of kernels per panicle. 7. The earlier the beginning date and the longer the period of irrigation suspension, the lighter are the weights of rough rice and straws per hill in comparison with those in the standard plot.

Effect of Rolling factor on the growth and thatch accumulation in tall fescue was studied from the viewpoint of estimate the rolling factor to obtain the highest values of growth characters and analysis of thatch accumulation. Rolling factors were 1.82, 3.33, 4.29 and 4.85, respectively. The results are may he summarized as follows ; 1. Rolling factor was affected to obstructive on the growth of tall fescue. Thus, the rolling factor ( RF) had significant negative correlated with the dry weight of plant ( DW ), leaf weight (LW), stem weight (SW), dry weight of thatch (Th), number of tillers (NT) and C / F ratio. 2. Rolling factor of 1.82 was an adequate rolling factor for the growth. 3. The dry weight of thatch(Th) had significant positive correlated with DW, LW, and NT, but negative correlated with the dry weight of thatch per a tiller ( th / NT). 4. Thatch accumulation system can be shown in following diagram. yield compnents - DW ~ Th - Rf (LW, SW, NT, C/F) th/NT 5. The dry weight of thatch per a tiller(th / NT) was a concerning factor for the losses of thatch.
