Blackgrass and water foxtail are troublesome weeds in a cultivation area of cereals. To know whether water foxtail could substitute for blackgrass as a plant material of screening for the discovery and development of new cereal herbicides, they were compared in a greenhouse and a growth chamber with respect to initial growth characteristics and responses to various herbicides. Blackgrass had a higher germination rate at lower temperature and a higher growth rate at higher temperature as compared to water foxtail. In addition, blackgrass was less sensitive to long day than water foxtail. These results suggest that blackgrass grows better in a cultivation area in spring than water foxtail. As compared to water foxtail, blackgrass showed shightly susceptible responses to herbicides when they were applied to soil surface at one day after seeding. However, the responses to the herbicides of blackgrass and water foxtail were similar with a foliar application of the herbicides at 3 or 4 leaf stage of the plant. Since there were no considerable differences in the herbicidal responses of the two plant species, water foxtail could substitute for blackgrass as a plant material for a primary herbicide screening. When water foxtail was used in a post-emergence screening test, seeding amount of 0.1g/$350cm^2$ and postemergence application of herbicides at 3 to 5 leaf stage were found to be appropriate on the view of alleviating screening efforts in a greenhouse.

We surveyed the distribution pattern of weeds in onion, garlic, potato, and barley fields including 304 sites of Gyeongsangbuk-do. The weeds were summarized as 30 family and 125 species in onion crop field, 29 family and 101 species in garlic field, 30 family 88 species in potato field, finally 27 family and 108 species. Compositae was dominant family (26.4%, 33 species), followed by Polygonaceae (8.8%, 11 species), Cruciferae (8.8%, 11 species) in onion field. Compositae was also dominant family (24.8%, 25 species) in garlic field, it was 22.7% (20 species) in potato field, and it was also 24.1% (26 species) in barley field, respectively. Among these winter crops, major five families were occupied 61.1, 58.4, 58.0 and 57.5% in turn at barley, onion, potato and garlic fields. The PCA-covariance plot analysis for investigation of occurrence pattern of weeds by four winter crop fields revealed that the occurrence pattern of weed species in barley field was distinguished by Alopecurus aequalis var. amurensis, Stellaria alsine var. undulate and Stellaria aquatica.

Weed species investigated on the roadways of Kyungnam and Kyungpook provinces in September, 1989 were 75 species in 31 families and 89 species in 31 families, respectively. Five weed community types were observed on the roadway of Kyungnam province, namely, Kummerowis striata, Humulus japonicum-Artermisia princeps, Digitaria sanguiralis-Eleusine indica, Artermisia princeps-Degitarin sanguinalis and Digilaria sanguinalis-Setaria viridis. In contrast, Kyungpook province had six community types which were Eleusine indica, Humulus japonicum-Commelina communis, Ihgitaria sanguinalis-Eeusine indica, Digitaria sanguinalis-Artermisia princeps, Dzgitaria sanguinalis-Setaria viridis and Setaria viridis community types. Ten major weed species on the roadway of Kyungnam province were Dtgitaria sanguinalis(23.3%). Setaria viradis(8.3%). Edeusine indica(7.3%). Kummerowis striata(6.0%). Humulus japonicum(5.2%), Phaseolus nipponensis(3.5%), Echinochloa crusgalli (2.9%) and Imperata cyliudrica(2.0%).

Nine combined dosal levels of Paraquat and Oxyfluorfen were compared on pear orchard to control Digitaria adscendens Henr, and others, namely Commelina communis L., Erigeron annuus L., Echinochloa crusgalli P. Beauv var. oryzicola Ohwi, etc.. By treating as an early-postemergence, the mixtures showed higher control effects than 85% of the whole weeds, but the control effects in the mono-treatments of respective herbicide were only 20% or so. On the other hand, as a late-postemergence, the control rates were fluctuated from 31% to 94%. However, there was no significant difference in Spearman's rank correlation coefficients between both efficacies. Thus indicate that the action style of synergistic effect was not influenced by the application time, and the levels of mixtured dosages should be adjusted by the application times and interfering conditions.

Differing in water conditions, the dry matter weight per plant was highest at 0 cm flooding depth, and was decreased at above 2 cm flooding depths. The shoot and spikes per pot developed best at flooding depths of 0 and 2 cm, but worst at -5cm or above 4cm flooding depths. The dry matter weight of shoots was linearly increased, but the weight of roots was sharply decreased according to high temperature after flower initation. The shoots and spikes per pot developed more effectively at 25$^{\circ}C$ than at 35 or 15$^{\circ}C$. The number of shoot and spike per pot were decreased according to higher shading. The effects of shading of 25-45% were not significantly small. The natural white and yellow spectra were the most effective to increase dry matter weight, shoots and spikes per pot. The dry matter weights of shoot and root per plant were not significantly different among at: 50 and 75% clay. The number of shoots were best and continuously increased at 75% clay, and the increments at 0 and 100% clays showed the lag period at early stage. The pattern of spikes was similar to shoots with less difference in various clay composition. The dry matter weight per plant in paddy field and upland field was basically similar. The numbers of shoot and spike were increased in response to increased fertilizer levels up to 20Kg per 10a of each component.

This study was conducted to examine the possibility of complete lodging. prevention, the growth and yield of the paddy rice plant by paciobutrazol 0.6%G application at 15 days before heading under the several levels (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 kg/10a) of nitrogen fertilizer in 1986. Culm length was shortened 10-15% by paclobutrazol application. The shortened rate of internode was very extreme on the 3rd and 4th internode in paclobutrazol application. Moment the height of center gravity and lodging index turned higher with increasing nitrogen fertilizer, on the other hand, those of paclobutrazol application were smaller than control. Lodging degree (0~4) was 1~3 above 25kg/10a level of nitrogen fertilizer in control, however, no more than 1 at 45kg/10a level of nitrogen fertilizer in paclobutrazol application. Ripened grain ratio and grain weight of paclobutrazol application were larger than those of control. Yield increased more 15-26% in paclobutrazol application than control. The nitrogen level of maximum yield was about 25kg/10a in control, but was 31kg/10a in paclobutrazol application.

The inhibition characteristics of chlorsulfuron [CHL, 2-chloro-N-[{ (4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)amino}carbonyl]benzenesulfonamide] and imazaquin [IMA, 2-{4,5-dihydro-4-methyl-4-(1-methy-lethyl)-5-oxo-1H-imidazol-2-yl}-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid] on acetolactate synthase(ALS) activity of corn plants were investigated. CHL and IMA rapidly inhibited ALS activity of corn plants in vitro. Their $I_{50}$ values for ALS activity were 100nM and $5{\mu}M$, respectively, indicating that CHL had 50 times more inhibitory effect on ALS activity than IMA. The first applied herbicide had a dominant inhibitory effect on ALS activity when the two herbicides were applied sequentially. Branched-chain amino acids, valine(Val), leucine(Leu), and isoleucine(Ile) showed a feedback inhibition on ALS activity ; Val or Leu had a more inhibitory effect on ALS activity than Ile. Branchedchain amino acids and CHL or IMA exhibited an additive effect on inhibiting ALS activity. This suggests that branched-chain amino acids inhibit ALS activity by a different mechanisms) from that of CHL or IMA. Apparent ALS activity, which was measured on the basis of the conversion of pyruvate to acetolactate, was decreased by the addition of 2-ketobutyrate into the ALS reaction mixture in a concentration-dependent manner. In addition, kinetic studies revealed that CHL acts as a noncompetitive inhibitor, while IMA acts as an uncompetitive inhibitor to ALS with respect to pyruvate.

This study was carried out to determine distribution and tuberization characteristics of tubers of water chestnut(Eleocharis Kuroguwai Ohwi) which is a dominant weed species and diffult to control during 1993 to 1994. By early planting of E. kuroguwai tubers, more and heavier tubers were developed, but the tubers were tended to distribute at the upper soils. Large proportion of tubers was remained at the upper 0 to 10cm soil layer and a few tubers were formed below 20cm. Tubers developed earlier tended to be at deeper layer, while later developed tubers were at upper layers. Tuber weight was increased from the surface to 20cm soil depths, but that formed below 20cm was almost same. No tillage resulted in more tuber formation which were distributed at upper soil layers when compared to conventional tillage. Cool water irrigation pumped from ground water resulted in less tuberization but smaller tubers when compared to control. Shading with color cellophan films resulted in smaller tuber formation with lower in sprouting percentage. Among the films tested, the most significant effect was obtained with green color.

This experiments was conducted to investigate the dormancy of Eleocharis kuroguwai tuber in the earth and the influence of seeding time and depth on the emergence of Eleocharis kuroguwai. The tuber of Eleocharis kuroguwai on underground was formed the most amount between 10cm and 15cm layer and formed the second a lot of tuber in the soil layer between 5cm and 10cm, the third between the surface of the earth and 5cm, the least between 15cm and 20cm. The total mean emergence of tuber was 78%, and the dormant tuber was approximately 22% of total tuber formed during a year in the earth. The distribution of dormant tuber under the ground was about 42% between 15cm and 20cm, 39% between 10 cm and 15cm, 14% between 5cm and 10cm, and 5% between the surface of the earth and 5cm. The dormancy percent of tuber formed at each soil layer was about 60% between 15cm and 20cm, 21% between 10cm and 15cm, 12% between 5cm and 10cm, and 7% between the surface of the earth and 5cm. The emergence days of the tuber seeded at low layer was short, and the emergence rate was high, The tuber was formed much more on seeding at May 30th than June 30th.

Various herbicides were applied to the young rice seedling from which endosperm were removed and their effects were determined at 40 days after transplanting. Generally, growth was retarded, but the number of tillers was not effected. Application of bensulfuron and pretilachlor showed slight growth inhibition compared to dimepiperate and pyrazolate. Injury due to herbicide application was dependent on the transplanting depth. Injury was severe when pretilachlor and pyrazolate were applied to rice transplanted 0 and 4cm deep, respectively. However, bensulfuron showed much injury regardless of transplanting depths with the tendency of general growth retardation. Dimepiperate was fairly safe at all transplanting depths. The application of herbicides at 3 and 6 DAT showed higher injury than that at g and 12 DAT. The degree of injury was severe when pretilachlor and bensulfuron were applied.
