A lignin degradation bacteria, symbiotic bacteria was isolated from the gut of Sympetrum depressiusculum and tested for its lignin degrading activity using lignin model compounds and related aromatic compounds. The strain was identified as Serratia marcescens HY-5 based on the 165 rDNA, cellular fatty acid composition, biochemical and physiological characteristics. S. marcescens showed 40-50% lignin degrading activity in the media that contained vaillin, guaiacol and dealkaline lignin. S. marcescens showed three ligninase activities [Jaccase, lignin peroxidase(LiP) and Manganase peroxidase(MnP)]. Addition of dealkaline lignin to the basal media increased about 6fold of laccase activity. Vanillic acid or vanillin increase 1.3fold of MnP activity and p-coumaric acid increased 12fold of LiP activity which added to the basal medium.

Calli obtained from basal disc explants of Allium victorialis var.platyphyllum wre grown in three kinds of nutrient media (MS, BDS, and B5), and the frequencies of mitotic index and the chromosomal aberrations were analysed. The mitotic index varied from 0.55% to 1.01% with respect to culture media and ages. The mitotic irregularities like micro-, bi- and multi-nuclei, chromosome bridge and laggards were noted in each types of calli. The chromosome number variations observed in metaphase stage were identified aneuploid and tetraploid. Structural variations such as dicentric chromosomes, centromere breakage and small chromosomes were observed. Relationship between basal medium and chromosomal variability was not observed in this study. But, in BDS medium, NAA and BA had a more effect on number variation than kinetin.

Basal callus formation and leaf abscission is a problem in clonal micropropagation. We have described an in vitro clonal propagation protocol of Dalbergia sissoo Roxb (shisham) 'FRI-14' in which AgNO₃ played important role not only in mitigating problem of leaf abscission and basal callus, but also improved shoot induction and multiplication. Best induction and shoot multiplication was obtained on MS media with 1.5 mg/l 6-BAP and 10 mg/l AgNO₃ and half-strength MS media with 0.5 mg/l 6-BAP, 2 mg/l AgNO₃ and 50 mg/l Adenine sulphate whereas best ex vitro rooting was obtained with 200 mg/l IBA in pulse treatment.

Thermus caldophilus GK24 was selected as sources of thermostable $\beta$-galactosidase from a survey of genus Thermus. T. caldophilus GK24 (Tca) $\beta$-galactosidase was found to be inducible. The enzyme was optimally active at 75$\circ$C. Enzyme induction was achieved by addition of lactose, galactose and cellobiose to basal media. The addition of glucose to culture media had a repressive effect on further enzyme synthesis. T caldophilus GK24 was tested for production of $\beta$-galactosidase by addition of various concentration of lactose, galactose and cellobiose to standard media. Cellobiose was found to be effective for the $\beta$-galactosidase induction. The optimal induction medium for production of $\beta$-galactosidase was composed of 0.2% cellobiose, 0.3% bactotryptone, 0.3% yeast extract, basal salts and Tris/HCI(pH 7.8). The activity of the enzyme in the optimal induction medium increased nearly 16.5-fold compared to the standard medium. Tca $\beta$-galactosidase was detected when cell extracts was subjected to electrophoresis in a nondenaturing polyacryamide gel and stained for activity with 6-bromo-2-naphtyl-$\beta$-D-galactopyranoside(BNG).

Penicillium sp I which produces a powerful hydrolysing enzyme was isolated from putrefid and dry Jerusalem artichoke medium. The strain was used to study on the optimum culture conditions for enzyme production. The results obtained are as follows: 1. Penicillium sp I was a vigorous strain to produce inulase. 2. The optimum culture conditions of the strain was examined in the Jerusalem artichoke extract medium and the synthetic medium. 3. Inulase productivity in the Jerusalem artichoke extract medium was higher than that of the synthetic medium. 4. The optimum culture period of the Jerusalem artichoke extract medium was four days, whereas that of the synthetic medium was five days. 5. The optimum temperature, pH and concentration in the Jerusalem artichoke extract medium were $30^{\circ}C$, 5.0 and 4.0% (W/V), respectively. Meanwhile, the optimum temperature, pH and concentration in the synthetic medium were $30{\sim}33^{\circ}C$, $5.0{\sim}6.0$, and $1.0{\sim}1.5%$ (W/V), respectively. 6. Corn steep liquor, peptone, $(NH_4)_2HPO_4,\;NH_4H_2PO_4,\;(NH_4)_2SO_4$, etc. were favorable as nitrogen sources. Of these, especially, Corn steep liquor and peptone as organic nitrogen sources caused an increase in inulase production in the synthetic medium. 7. All sugars except for inulin have no effect upon the inulase production. 8. KCl, $MgSO_4\;and\;FeSO_4$ were favourable mineral sources for inulase production.

The effect of basal nutrients concentrations and exogenous auxin for root induction from leaves of Sedum takesimense were investigated for mass-propagation. Root induction rates were significantly different from the concentrations of basal salts but not influenced by supplemented IBA in the medium. The lowest concentration of MS basal salts (1/10) was most effective to induce roots from leaves followed 1/5 MS, and 1/2 and full strength MS medium. Supplement of IBA $10{\mu}M$ in the medium did not improve the root induction that resulted no differences compare to the hormone free media. Rooted leaves were transplanted in soil and survived in greenhouse.

These studies were carried out to investigate optimal physological conditions for in vitro fertilization (IVF) of mouse ova. The unfertilized ova were obtained by superovulation from ICR mice of 4 to 6 weeks old. Tyrode's 280 solution was used as basal media, and pH and osmolality of basal media were adjusted with the supplementation of sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride, respectively. The optimal pH, and osmolality of culture media and the optimum period of sperm preincubation were examined in fertilization in vitro of mouse ova and the subsequent culture in vitro of embryos. The pH range of media examined was designed from 6.5 to 7.5 with 0.2 interval and the range of osmolality from 250 to 370 mOsm with 20 interval, and the period of sperm preincubation examined was 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes. The ova developed to 2-cell embryosafter 26hrs. of incubation with preincubated sperm were evaluated as in vitro fertilized ones. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. The percentage of in vitro fertilized ova was highest (64.7%) in media of pH 7.1 and lowest (38.0%) in pH 6.7. No significant difference in % fertilized ova was found from the media of pH 7.1 to 7.5. Compared with the result from pH 7.1 medium, the pollyspermy was increased signifciantly (p<0.05) in the media of pH over 7.5 and below 6.9;, and the % degenerated ova was significantly (p<0.05) increased in the media of pH below 6.9. 2. The percentage of in vitro fertilized ova was highest (69.4%) in media of osmolality 330 mOsm and lowest (47.9%) in osmolality 250 mOsm. No significant difference in % fertilized ova was found from the media of osmolality 310 to 350 mOsm. Compared with the result from osmolality 330 mOsm in medium, the polyspermy aws increased significantly(p<0.05) in the media of osmolality over 350 mosmol and blow 290 mOsm, and the % degenerated ova was significantly (P<0.05) increased in the media of osmolality below 290 mOsm. 3. The percentate of in vitro fertlilized ova was highest (62.7%) in media of period sperm preincubation 180 min. and lowest (40.4%) in sperm preincubation 30 minutes. No significant difference in % fertilized ova was found from the media of sperm preincubation 120 to 180 minutes. Compared with the result from sperm preincubation 180 minutes in medium, the polyspermy was low differ no significantly(P<0.05) in the media of period sperm preincubation, and the % degenerated ova was signifciantly(P<0.05) increased in the media of sperm presincubation below 60 minutes.

An efficient transformation system for high-throughput functional genomic studies of kiwifruit has been developed to overcome the problem of necrosis in Actinidia arguta explants. The system uses Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 harbouring the binary vector pART27-10 to inoculate leaf strips. The vector contains neomycin phosphotransferase (nptII) and ${\beta}$-glucuronidase (GUS) (uidA) genes. A range of light intensities and different strengths of Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal salt media was used to overcome the problem of browning and/or necrosis of explants and calli. Callus browning was significantly reduced, resulting in regenerated adventitious shoots when the MS basal salt concentration in the culture medium was reduced to half-strength at low light intensity ($3.4\;{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}\;s^{-1}$) conditions. Inoculated leaf strips produced putative transformed shoots of Actinidia arguta on half-MS basal salt medium supplemented with 3.0 $mg\;l^{-1}$ zeatin, 0.5 $mg\;l^{-1}$ 6-benzyladenine, 0.05 $mg\;l^{-1}$ naphthalene acetic acid, 150 $mg\;l^{-1}$ kanamycin and 300 $mg\;l^{-1}$ $Timentin^{(R)}$. All regenerated plantlets were deemed putativ transgenic by histochemical GUS assay and polymerase chain-reaction analysis.

In order to find out the inhibitors of acetic acid fermentation in Korean ginseng (Panax Sin son C. A. Meyer), total aglycone, panaxadiol, panaxadiol, oleanolic acid and ${\beta}$ -sitosterol were added to the basal medium, respectively, and a surface culture was carried out at 30$^{\circ}C$. The results were as follows: 1 . Saponins lost their activity to inhibit the acetic acid fermentation by hydrolysis. 2 Panaxadiol inhibited slightly, and the degree of inhibition was about 1/300 of that of free saponins. 3. Panaxadiol and oleanolic acid inhibited silighly similar to total aglycone. 4. Acetic acid fermentation was stimulated at the early stage when ${\beta}$-sitosterol was added to the media below the level of 0.000815%. But the fermentation was inhibited when media contained it more than that media 5. An over-oxidation of acetic acid was observed when the media contained total aglycone. panaxadiol, panaxatriol, oleanolic acid and ${\beta}$-sitosterol, respectively, while the media which contained sucrose, ginseng extracts ginseng saponins was shown not to be over-oxidized.
