This experiment was carried out to study the germination behavior and the density effect of Capsella bursa-pastoris Medicus on barley yields. Seed dormancy of C. bursa-pastoris was broken on middle of July. No light was required for germination of C. bursa-pastoris seeds. Higher germination showed at $15^{\circ}C$ than at $0^{\circ}C$ or $6^{\circ}C$. Effective temperature for dormancy breakdown of seed was at $5^{\circ}C$ for 30 days rather than at $40^{\circ}C$. Reduction in barley yield showed with increasing the plant density of C. bursa-pastoris.

Weedy rice is one of the major problems in direct-seeded rice field, resulting in poor rice quality and low grain yield. This study was carried out to evaluate the conversion effect to machine transplanting after wet-direct- seeding for 3 years on weedy rice occurrence, in comparison of repeated wet-direct-seeding. Occurrence of weedy rice in the continuous wet-hill-seeded and broadcasted field for 3 years increased 4 folds, when compared with that in machine transplanted rice paddy. In the first year of wet-direct-seeded field converted from machine transplanting, weedy rice occurrence did not increase, demonstrating lesser weedy rice in wet-hill-seeded than broadcasted field. These results indicate that alternate cultivation of wet-hill-seeding and machine transplanting is more effective to prevent weedy rice occurrence than the repeated wet-direct-seeding method for 3 years.

In present study we focused on the weed occurrence and diversity in rice field according to methods of weed control. Experiments comprised of no herbicide treatment (NHT), herbicide treatment (HT) and golden apple snail treatment (GAST) within the three months (July to September) of growing rice. According to results, five to seven different weed species were found in NHT, while two to four different weed species were found in HT and GAST. Monochoria vaginalis was dominant species during growing period in NHT and HT while Lemna paucicostata was the dominant in July but Persicaria hydropiper was dominant for August and September. Simpson's dominance index was highest in GAST(0.96) compared with other treatments (NHT 0.27 and HT : 0.51). The similarity coefficient was 50.31%, 4.65% and 0.38% for NHT versus HT, NHT versus GAST and HT versus GAST, respectively. In conclusion, the weed species diversity, dominance and similarity coefficient were varied in different weed control methods of rice growing.

Several experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of external factors on germination and emergence of Eclipta prostrata (L.)L. The weight of viable achenes doubled as a result of 90 minutes soaking in water. The germination of E. prostrata was significantly improved by alternating temperatures. At a constant temperature of $35^{\circ}C$, only 78% of the achenes germination, whereas at alternating temperatures of 35/$20^{\circ}C$, 96.5% of the achenes germinated. E. prostrata was more sensitive than rice to moisture stress. No germination of E. prostrata achenes occurred in the absence of oxygen. No germination of E. prostrata achenes occurred in the dark or when they were exposed to green, blue, and far-red light. Germination of E. prostrata achenes was influenced by the duration of illumination after absorption of water. Ten hours of illumination was needed for maximum germination and 2 hours for 50% germination. No significant changes in germination of E. prostrata achenes were observed between pH 3 and 10. A high tolerance of E. prostrata achenes to salt was observed. Emergence of E. prostrata achenes was greatly affected by planting depth. In the upland soil, 74.0% of the achenes planted on the soil surface germinated, and no emergence was at planting depths of 0.5 cm or greater.

Four malformin A's produced by Aspergillus niger van Tiegh. were separated by HPLC equipped with $C_{18}$ reversed-phase column and subjected to structural determination. Amino acid analyses and mass spectra data of the compounds indicate that they structurally resemble the cyclic pentapeptide malformin $A_1$. Their structures were deduced by two dimensional NMR and MS/MS experiments as cyclo-D-Cys-D-Cys-L-Val-D-Leu-L-Ile for $A_1$, cyclo-D-Cys-D-Cys-L-Val-D-Leu-L-Val for $A_2$, cyclo-D-Cys-D-Cys-L-Val-D-Leu-L-Leu for $A_3$, and cyclo-D-Cys-D-Cys-L-Val-D-Ile-L-Val for $A_4$. Among the mal-formin A's, the structure of $A_3$ was identical to that of malformin C, which was produced by A. niger strain AN-1. All the malformin A's caused severe curvatures of corn(Zea mays L.) roots and the activities of the malformin A's with molecular weight 529 were greater than those with molecular weight 515. Malformin $A_1$ caused the corn root curvature by 83% at a concentration of $0.25{\mu}M$. In the mung bean(Phaseolus aureus Roxb.) hypercotyl segment test, however, the molecular weight of malformin A's was not a factor influencing the physiological activities. Malformin $A_1$ stimulated the growth of mung bean hypercotyles by 165% at a $0.1{\mu}M$ concentration.

The germination characteristics of Diplachne fusca (L.) P. Beauv. seeds were investigated under different seed storage conditions to find out reliable system for maintaining the seeds with high and uniform germination rate and thus for possible use of the seeds in herbicide screening with a continuous seed supply. When the seeds were stored under wet-low temperature($4^{\circ}C$) condition, the germination rate was 88% after 4-week-storage. The germination rate slightly declined after the storage for longer than 3 months. Dry seeds stored at room temperature exhibited very low germination rate. The wet-low temperature treatment was effective for inducing the germination of the seeds which had been stored under dry-room temperature condition for 4 months. The germination rate was 70% after 2-week- storage under the wet-low temperature condition. The germination rate was much higher under an alternate temperature condition than under a continuous temperature condition. The optimum temperature was 35/$25^{\circ}C$(14/10hrs). The seeds had a capability to germinate under NaCl-treated condition even at a concentration of 1.0%, whereas the germination of Echinochloa crus-galli seeds was completely inhibited by 0.5% NaCl. This result indicates that D. fusca has an advantage over E. crus-galli to survive in reclaimed 1and from the sea.

The objectives of the present study were to find out 1)the differences in growth of radish under foggy and non-foggy condition, 2)the weed competition between radish and major upland weeds including Echinochloa crus-galli, 3)difference in response of radish to herbicide and weed, and finally 4)the fundamental data for the establishment of radish weed control system under locational foggy regions. The research was carried out by tray in greenhouse equipped with Auto Foggy System(SAE KI RIN Co.) and results were summarized as follows. 1. Plant height and shoot fresh weight of radish cultivars(long skirt, delicious altari, green mascot) were not different at the early growth(8 to 38 days after seeding), but increased at 55 days after seeding under foggy condition. Root fresh weight increased only in green mascot cultivar tinder foggy condition. Chlorophyll contents were higher in all the cultivars of radish under foggy condition. 2. Plant height and shoot fresh weight increased at 0 and 20 days of weed competition under foggy condition. Root fresh weight increased at 0, 20 and 35 days of competition under foggy condition. Above 50 days-competition, there was no difference between foggy and non-foggy condition. 3. Napropamide, alachlor and linuron did not show any differences in plant height and shoot fresh weight between foggy and non-foggy condition. Molinate reduced the root fresh weight at 65 days after seeding tinder foggy condition. 4. No difference in weeding efficacy by any herbicides tested was found tinder foggy condition. Weeding efficacy of Aeschynomene indica was reduced under foggy condition.

The experiment was carried out to find the feasibility of using Oxyfluorfen in the paddy fields by investigating the difference of selective activity of Oxyfluorfen among rice cultivars and major paddy weed species. The dosage of Oxyfluorfen that show selective activity between rice cultivars and weed species ranged from 0.1 to 0.4kg ai/ha. The degree of growth inhibition was in order of whole-plant soaking application > root soaking application > stem bandage application, and in that case $10^{-5}$M Oxyfluorfen was treated after emergence. Especially the growth inhibition of rice cultivars and Cyperus serotinus was low, among others. Photosynthesis was severely inhibited at the Oxyfluorfen level above $10^{-4}$ M in all the tested weeds, but inhibition of respiration was not to be seen. Isolated single cells of two rice cultivars and Cyperus serotinus were tolerant to $10^{-5}$M Oxyfluorfen,but those of Echinochloa crus-galli and Sagittaria pygmaea were susceptible comparatively. The growth inhibition of suspension cultured rice cell induced by the increments of Oxyfluorfen concentration, and the degree of inhibition was higher in C.V. Mushakdanti than in C.V. Aichiasahi.

A study on the competition-ecological classification of the 10 prominent paddy weed species around bulrush (Scirpus juneoides) to simplify the weed problem concept for the rice production. A serial assessments on the competition ability in space and dry matter production(nutrient depletion) of respective weed species and paddy rice, and the data were used to compute the phenotypic similarity by Single Link Clustering method. Both growth response of weed species in mono- and under the paddy rice standing was very similar (r = 0.969), but the reduction rate as affected by paddy rice standing was negatively correlated with the ability in space-competition(r=-0.513). Dendrogram of 10 weed species based on the phenotypic similarity computed in 4 characters in mono- and under the paddy rice standing was also similar, as Echinochloa c., Ludwigia p., Cyperus s., and Scirpus m. in I-group, Eleocharis k., Scirpus j, in II-group, and Juncus e., Potamogeton d. in III-group, respectively. Also, that of paddy rice to 10 weed species showed Fimbristylis m., Scirpus j., Eleocharis k., Scirpus m., Juncus e. in I-group, and Ludwigia p., Potamogeton d., Monochoria v. in II-group, respectively. The integrated dendrogram by the above two data indicate the I-group with Fimbristylis m., Scirpus j., Eleocharis k. and Juncus e., as higher growth response with relatively lower competition ability to paddy rice, II-group with Cyperus s., Echinochloa c., Potamogeton d., and Ludwigia p., as higher both in growth and competition, and the last, III-group with Monochoria v., and Scirpus m., as lower growth but higher competition, respectively.
