Alternaria spp.were predominantly isolated from the abnormal leaf spot lesions of pear cultivars Niitaka and Nijiiseiki. Alternaria isolates from the cultivar Niitaka were not pathogenic to both cultivars, but the isolates from the cultivar Nijiiseiki developed typical lesions of black leaf spots and were identified as A. kikuchiana. However, no typical abnormal leaf spot lesions were produced by the Alternaria isolates. Foliar spray of twelve different agrochemicals including lime sulfur, either alone or in combinations, with 7 times applications from April to July failed to reduced the disease development. Application of 17 different pesticides including fungicides, insecticides and herbicides currently used in pear orchards did not cause leaf injury similar to the abnormal leaf spot. Simulated acid rain of as low as pH 3.0 did not incite any leaf lesions alike the abnormal spot lesions. Mineral contents in the leaves of both cultivars did not differ significantly between the healthy leaves and those with abnormal leaf spots. When cuttings of pear tree were obtained in February from newly emerged twigs of the healthy or the diseased trees of Niitaka and planted in sand in the greenhouse, only those from the diseased trees developed typical leaf lesions of the abnormal spot. These results indicate that abnormal leaf spots are caused by unknown systemic agents in pear trees, rather than by Alternaria spp., chemical injury or acid rain.

Nature of graft transmissibility of pear abnormal leaf spot disease was examined by various grafting methods in the greenhouse and field. When the diseased and symptomless twigs were collected in winter and grafted in the next spring to the seed-originated healthy root stock, the abnormal leaf spot was developed only in the case of the diseased twigs. Double grafting on a seed-originated healthy root stock, where the diseased and the symptomless twigs were used as 1st and 2nd scions, respectively, developed abnormal leaf spot lesions without exception on the 2nd scions. Tongue-graft with the diseased and the symptomless trees also incited abnormal leaf spots on the both trees. Abnormal leaf spots of were also developed on HN-39, an indicator pear tree, used as a 2nd scion in a double graft test, where the diseased twig and a seed-originated healthy tree were used as the 1st scion and the root stock, respectively. When the diseased twig was top-grafted to the healthy root stock, lesion development of abnormal spot was limited to the grafted twig itself in the 1st year, but expanded to the main branches in the 2nd year, and spread over the whole tree in the 3rd year. This result indicates that the causal agent of abnormal leaf spot disease is transmitted by graft.

배나무잎 이상반점증상의 이병여부를 조기에 판별할 수 있는 가장 간편한 검정방법을 개발코자 시험하였다. 접목시기는 늦어질수록 병징발현율이 감소하였다. 접목방법은 2중절접, 2중삭아절접 순으로 양호하였으나 숙련된 기술이 필요한 이중절접방법보다 간편한 2중삭아절접 방법이 대량검정에 적합하였다. 이상반점증상의 전염에 필요한 최소 접촉시간은 1일 이상이었고 칼루스가 형성되어 접목부위가 활착된 21일 이후에서 발병이 가장 높았다.

A new unidentified pear leaf spot disease presumed to first occur in the late 1970's has recently become prevalent over the pear growing areas, and caused the greatest problem for pear production in Korea. The disease began to develop on pear leaves at mid- to late May, peaked at mid- to late une, but stopped further development until September in cool climate. Leaf lesions are 0.9∼2.5 mm in diam., oval or irregular to rectangular in shape, first appeared reddish purple, later changed to dark brown, and to whitish grey in the late season. Lesions were limited to appear only on the mature, hardened leaves, initially from leaf margin or near the leaf veins, and later scattered over the leaf surface. Individual lesions usually did not enlarge, but often coalesced each other, commonly causing shot holes and eventual early falling. The disease was most severe on the major pear cultivars Niitaka and Okusankichi ranged with 4 to 100% infections in trees, depending on the orchards, but not on the cultivar Chojuro. Damages from the disease included lower fruit weight, and higher acid and less sugar content in fruits, resulting in lowering the overall fruit quality. Etiology of the disease including identification of the causal organism is in a separate paper.

배나무잎 이상반점증상의 발병환경 조건을 조사하고자 실험한 결과 주간 23$^{\circ}C$, 야간 18$^{\circ}C$ 온도조건에서 병징발현이 가장 심하였고 이보다 높은 온도인 28/23$^{\circ}C$와 낮은 온도인 18/13$^{\circ}C$에서는 발병이 아주 적었다. 배나무잎에 봉지를 피복하면 발병이 전혀 없거나 극히 저조하였다. 이것은 봉지내의 온도가 최고 46.8$^{\circ}C$까지 올라가 고온에 의하여 발병이 억제된 것으로 생각된다. 이병주 토양과 건전주 토양의 화학성을 조사한 결과 이병주 토양에서는 건전주 토양보다 유효인산량이 많게 나타났다. 토양수분이 많거나 적었을 때는 병징발현이 다소 늦어지기는 하나 최종 조사시 발병정도는 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았다.

In May 2016, 24 peach samples showing abnormal and virus like symptoms were collected in one of major peach producing area, Yeongcheon-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Korea. We performed RT-PCR diagnosis for confirmation of viral infection. The diagnostic targets are 17 species of viruses and viroids that quarantine and high risk pathogens when it occur. As a results, seven species of viruses and viroids, including an unreported (Apricot pseudo-chlorotic leaf spot virus, APCLSV) and a quarantine (Peach latent mosaic viroid, PLMVd) species in Korea, were detected. For the sequence analysis of unreported virus, APCLSV, the sequence of coat protein gene were amplified and cloned. The sequence showed 97% nucleotide identity with other APCLSV isolates and compared with other seven species of reported Trichoviruses. This virus was classified as APCLSV based on the sequence and phylogenetic analysis. This isolate was named Yeongcheon. As patterns of APCLSV occurrence, all samples that APCLSV detected were co-infected with Apple chlorotic leaf spot virus (ACLSV). As properties of ACLSV, APCLSV has high possibility of wide spread disease in fruit tree farms in Korea. Therefore, it is necessary to do related researches, such as infection route and influence of disease in commercial orchards.

In order to investigate the growth pattern of sugar beet in Korea, this experiment was conducted using variety GW 359 at Tae-kwan-ryong, Suwon and Cheju. The results are summarized as follows; 1. At Tae-kwan-ryong, early growth stage was relatively long and during higher growing stage plants showed resistance to leaf spot disease, and vegetative maturing started from about September 15th. Top and root growth showed normal curve but it is considered that the early maturing variety will reduce the early growing period and prolong the vegetative maturing period. 2. At Suwon, the growth of top part was favorable until late of July but hereafter leaf spot disease brought death to the 25-35 leaves of top part and regenerated again in October. Consequently, sugar content of root showed changes from decrease to increase. Root weight increased from July to harvest season continunousely but showed abnormal growing curve. This indicates that Suwon is not proper place for sugar beet cultivation. 3. At Cheju, early growing stage was shorter about 15 days than that of Tae-kwan-ryong. Normal growth and long-maturing days favored the sugar accumulation in roots. But it is necessary to introduce non-bolting variety in autumn-winter season culture. 4. Sugar beet could be cultivated economically at Tae-kwan-ryong with 600-800 meter altitude for summer crop and at Cheju for winter crop, but Suwon is considered to be unfavorable for sugar beet.

Protoplasts were isolated from the leaf mesophyll tissue of in vitro 4-weeks-old Arabidopsis thaliana and cultured in MS liquid medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L NAA, 0.5 mg/L BAP and 9% mannitol in the dark at $25^{\circ}C$. When protoplast-derived microcolonies were dehydrated, the frequency of callus induction enhanced approximately 7-fold higher compared with non-dehydrated microcolonies in CP medium. Fifty callus lines were selected from dehydrated microcolonies. Shoots were efficiently initiated from the green spots of the selected shoot forming calli cultured on MS regeneration medium supplemented with 0.05 mg/L IAA, 7.0 mg/L 2-iP and 30 g/L sucrose under continous illumination for 4 weeks. Shoot regeneration frequencies (calli regenerating at least one shoot) were 3.5%~56%. Histological observations of shoot forming callus revealed that tracheary elements initiated from inner compact cells, and that meristemoids developed to shoot primordia and shoots. Roots were induced from these regenerating shoots on MS medium without phytohormones. These regenerants were successfully transplanted into potting soil. Morphological characterization of 50 protoplast-derived plants showed that the frequency of normal type was 78%.
