This study was conducted to develop the efficient propagation method of fern Phyllitis scolopendrium using In vitro culture. The influence of the origin of the donor explant sources (rhizome, stipe, three parts of blade) and the homogenization of explants was investigated. Rhizome and stipe explants showed the organogenic capacity among the five explant sources and plant regeneration was promoted by homogenization of culture material. Optimum condition for vigorous and excellent growth of multiple shoots was the half-strength MS medium with 1% sucrose concentration. Generally, addition of $NaH_2PO_4$ to media enhanced shoot multiplication. The highest rate of shoot proliferation was observed on the media containing $5{\mu}M$ NAA. Also, combination of activated charcoal $(0.1{\sim}0.2%)$ and growth regulators to growth medium prevented the formation of multiple bud primordia, 'nodule'-like bud clusters and improved the normal morphogenesis of sporopytes in P. scolopendrium.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of various media compositions in regeneration of Lilium lancifolium. The adventitious bud initiation from microscale was the best on MS medium supplemented with BAP 1.0 mg/L and NAA 0.1 mg/L after 4 weeks of culture. However, from bulbscales, adventitious bud initiation was the best in dark condition on MS medium supplemented with BAP 0.5 mg/L and NAA 0.1 mg/L. On the other hand, callus induction was found to be the best from the microscales incubated in complete dark condition for 8 weeks on MS medium supplemented with 2,4-D 1.0 mg/L and BAP 0.1 mg/L. The highest plantlet regeneration from callus was obtained after incubation in the light condition for 8 weeks on MS medium supplemented with NAA 0.5 mg/L and BAP 0.1 mg/L. Rooting of shoots was obtained easily on MS medium and the plantlets were transferred to soil pots after 8 weeks. The chromosome analysis of the root tip cells was revealed that the callus-derived plantlets had normal chromosome number, 2n=24. No variation was observed in the morphology of the plantlets.

In order to develop an efficient micropropagation system for a rare tree species, Empetrum nigrum var. japonicum K. Koch, the effect of medium salt, cytokinins and auxin at different concentration were evaluated. Shoot induction from axillary bud was better on WPM medium than on MS medium. Although there was no significant differences observed in shoot induction among the salt strengths of WPM medium, whereas healthy shoots were developed on basal WPM medium. In comparison of the cytokinins affecting shoot proliferation, zeatin was better than BA, whereas BA exhibited more effectiveness on shoot elongation. In vitro root formation was better on WPM medium than on 1/2MS medium and achieved the highest rooting rate when 5.0 mg/L IBA treatment. 93% of rooted plantlets were survived on artificial soil mixture after 4 weeks of acclimatization. Above results suggest that a rare tree species, E. nigrum var. japonicum can be micropropagated via axillary bud cultures.

The experiment was conducted to identify the optimal in vitro propagation condition for P. lactiflora Pall. Through apical shoot tip and axillary shoot tip culture of winter bud. When apical shoot tip and axillary shoot tips excised from winter bud were cultured on MS medium supplemented with various concentrations of plant growth regulators, all the apical shoot tips elongated regardless of the composition of the medium but axillary shoot tips responded differently. Shoot of 'Uisong' local cultivate was well elongated in the medium containing 0.01mg/L NAA. Frequency of shoot formation and subsequent shoot growth in axillary shoot tip culture were promoted in the medium containing 0.01 mg/L NAA and 5.0mg/L zeatin. 30% of the elongated shoots were vigorously rooted on the medium containing 0.1mg/L NAA with vermiculite as a support medium.

Protocorms were newly formed from the culture of axillary buds, obtained in the seedlings of Dendrobium moniliforme in vitro. Its formation ratio was calculated to 43.7% on MS medium containing 1.0 mg/L BA. To test their survival ratio, we gradually increased the inoculation of transplant populations from single to more than three, and then found that the ratio in three populations went up as high as 95.2% rather than those of one or two. In bioreactor, explant obtained from the axillary bud grew well in lower concentration as 1/4 MS medium, while clearly grew slow in a little bit high concentration as 1/2 MS medium. We found that the explant of axillary bud, obtained from the Dendrobium moniliforme seedlings, would grow five times after culturing in a bioreactor for six weeks in 1/4 MS medium.

It is known that septin gene encodes the filament in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and it has importants roles in bud formation and cytokinesis. Four septin genes have been cloned in S. cerevisiae and it was found in Drosophila melanogaster and mouse. In this study, we cloned the septin gene in Schizosaccahromyces pombe by use of PCR technique. The septin gene in S. pombe has an 1,143 bp open reading frame and encodes a protein of 380 amino acids with a molecular weight of 42 kd. Comparison of the predicted amano acid sequences between the septin gene in S. pombe and CDC12 gene in S. cerevisiae reveals the 51.8% of simility.

We investigated the structure of floral organs and possibility of seed-set to breed a variety in ginger Zingiber officinale Rosc. Floral bud was formed from collected domestic Seosan var, and foregin Thailand var, the number of florets per bud were 8 and 10 in Seosan and Thailand var, respectively, Flowering time ranged from 18 to 25 August irregularly at 4-5 pm. The flower has the long styled with fiber hairs on top of stigma and connected-two anthers. Pollens were mixed of circular and ellips shape and its extine was two layer structure. Callus formation from anther explants was effective with compact and embryogenic on N$_{6}$ medium supplemented 2 mg/l of NAA(NCM). Plant regeneration was on the MS medium with BA of 1-2 mg/l from 40 days old callus after transferred callus medium.m.

Shoot formation was investigated from in vitro cultivation of exotic hybrid poplar (Populus koreana ${\times}$ P. trichocarpa) with a specific stomatal character occurring both upper and lower surface of leaves. Two different explants (stem and leaf segment) of Peace poplar were cultured on half strength Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with the various concentrations of thidiazuron as a plant growth regulator. Most adventitious shoots were produced from excised ends of stem or mid-veins of leaf segments. The highest average numbers of shoots were 7.1 and 5.3 with the treatments of 0.02mg/L TDZ in both explants of stem and leaf segment. The highest shooting rates were achieved to 83.3％ and 47.6％ with the concentrations of 0.01mg/L and 0.02mg/L TDZ by axillary bud and leaf cultures, respectively.

This study was carried out to determine the effect of medium solidity, salt strength, sugar and nitrogen sources, and pH levels on in vitro multiplication of pathogen-free yam (Dioscorea opposita Thunb.). Liquid medium was more effective in the growth of plant height, fresh weight, and formation of microbulb than the solid medium. Optimal condition for plant fresh weight, growth, and multiplication axillary bud was in 1MS salt strength with 60 $g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ sucrose and half strength of $KNO_3$. Optimal condition for microbulb formation was $\frac{1}{2}$ MS salt strength supplemented with glucose 60 $g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ and half strength of $KNO_3$. The number of leaves and nodes were sharply increased from 2 to 5 weeks, whereas plant fresh weight was steadily increased from 3 to 11 weeks after inoculation. Microbulbs were formed at 2 weeks after inoculation and continuously increased until 12 weeks.

This study was carried out to obtain the basic informations on the characteristics of gametophytes formation and embryo developement in Dicentra spectabilis. Microspore mother cells developed from archesporial cells, start meiosis when flower bud length reaches around 1 mm, formed tetrahedral type tetrad. The 4 microspores were separated. They were developed to male gametophytes, respectively. Megaspore mother cells were observed when flower bud length was $4{\sim}5\;mm$. The developemental type of megaspore was polygonum and embryo sac was amphitropous. Three large and distinctive antipodals did not degenerated and remained after embryo sac was developed. When the male and female gametophytes was fully developed, the length of stamen and style was very similar or stamen was shorter about 0.5 mm than that of style. This result indicates that self-fertilization can be occurred in this species. After fertilization, developing zygotic embryos showed various stages of development from globular to cotyledonary embryos, and zygotic embryo in seed scattering time seemed to have an early cotyledonary stage.
