The transfer of the isolated nuclei from P. florida into protoplasts of P. ostreatus was induced with polyethylene glycol and $CaCl_2$. Three types of transfer products of nuclei were obtained when transferred to MMM. Type 1 colonies were more vigrously growing mycelium and stable on MCM. One of the type 1 colonies, appeared segregation on MCM plus benomyl. The mycelium did not form clamp connection. These results suggest that type 1 colonies were nuclear hybrids or allodiploids. Type 2 was main products of nuclear transfer. The mycelium formed clamp connection and fertile on sawdust media. Type 3 was very slow growing or non-viable colonies after debris of nuclei or chromosomes transfer into recipient protoplasts. Isozyme pattern of esterase in type 1 produced a new band. Type 2 and type 3 could be characterized by parental bands.

In order to elucidate the effects of copper on Corassius carassius, the following were studied: 1) lactate dehydrogenase isozyme patterns by cellulose acetate electrophoresis, 2) LDH activity and copper effect on LDH enzyme system y spectrophotometry, 3) esterase isozyme patterns by agar thin layer electrophoresis, 4) hemoglobin patterns by starch gel electrophoresis, and 5) histological study. 1. There were two bands of LDH isozymes (LDH-3 and LDH-5) in the gill, three bands (LDH-2, LDH-4, and LDH-5) in the liver, and two bands (LDH-3 and LDH-4) in the muscle of the normal fish. The LDH-1 bond was not found in the above three tissues. When the fish were exposed to copper, LDH-3 appeared in the liver, LDH-5 in the muscle, but no new LDH band appeared in the gill. 2. The sepcific activities of the LDH were lowest in the gill and highest in the muscle of the normal fish, and they were gradually decreassed in the gill and highest in the muscle of the normal fish, and they were gradually decreased in the liver and mucle except in the gill from 1-day to 10-day exposure to copper. It indicates that LDH activities in the liver and muscle of the fish were inhibited by copper. 3. Through in vitro experiment, it is clear that the decrease of the LDH activities of the liver and muscle of the fish exposed to copper is mainly caused by the inhibition on the M-LDH in the fish. 4. The numbers of the esterase isozyme bands of the gill, liver, muscle, blood, brain, and kidney of the normal fish were 3, 6, 2, 2, 2, and 2 respectively, and these numbers were the same as those exposed to copper. The relative mobilities of the esterase bands in the gill, liver, blood, and kidney of the exposed group were different from those of the control. 5. There was one hemoglobin band on the anode in the normal fish. It seems that the nobility of hemoglobin band of the fish exposed to copper was slightly faster than that of the normal fish. 6. The normal gill lamellae of the fish consisted of centrally located pillar cells and a number of mucus cells. When the fish were exposed to copper, the epithelial layer was divorced first, disintegrated, and then destroyed completely. 7. The liver of the normal fish had prominent central veins, cords of hepatic cells, and sinusoids. When the fish were exposed to copper, numerous droplets of fat appeared in the cells around the central vein of the liver. It is assumed that the fatty droplets were accumulated by the lesion due to fatty metamorphosis of the liver caused by copper. 8. There was no histological difference between the muscle of the normal fish and that of the fish exposed to copper. 9. In the normal fish, the tubules of the kidney were surrounded by hemopoetic tissues. However, the kidney tissue of the fish exposed to copper received some damage on the proximal tubules. Since the tubule cells were reduced in height, the lumens of the tubules were enlarged. Consequently many proximal tubules exhibited some pink-stained granular casts and various stages of degeneration.

Ten-day-old seedlings of the oxyfluorfen-tolerant and -susceptible rice cultivars with barnyardgrass, a typical susceptible weed were soaked in oxyfluorfen at $10^{-6}M$ for 2 hrs kept for 24 hrs in the dark, and exposed to light for 0, 2, 4, or 6 hrs to investigate changes in the activity and isozyme of antioxidative enzymes. The activities of antioxidative enzymes of APOX, CAL, POX, NR, GR, MDAR and SOD in the tolerant and susceptible rice cultivate themselves didn't show any difference but the activity in the susceptible barnyardgrass was very low in comparison with rice cultivars. The activity of lipoxygenase tended to be some slightly higher in the susceptible rice cultivars and barnyardgrass than in the tolerant rice cultivars. The activities of MDAR, POX, GR and SOD, antioxidative enzymes, were higher in the tolerant rice cultivars than in the susceptible rice cultivars and barnyardgrass after the treatment of oxyfluorfen. After the treatment of oxyfluorfen, in the change of POX isozyme, the activity of C band in the tolerant rice cultivars increased with increased concentration but it didn't in the susceptible rice cultivar. The activity of B band decreased slightly at $10^{-4}M$ in the susceptible barnyardgrass. Isozyme of GR, SOD and AO by the treatment of oxyfluorfen, the activity of each band between the tolerant and susceptible rice cultivars showed no difference but GR isozyme C band was disappeared in the susceptible barnyardgrass at $10^{-4}M$. In the change of esterase isozyme resulting from the treatment of oxyfluorfen, the activities of B, C and D bands decreased more in the susceptible rice cultivars than in tolerant rice cultivars, and A band was disappeared in the susceptible barnyardgrass at $10^{-4}M$.

Taxonomic relations among three species of some edible fleshy fungi(Lentinus edodes, Pleurotus ostreatus, Flammulina velutipes) in the family Tricholomataceae were examined by using polyacrylamied gel disc electrophoresis. The soluble, crude extract of mycelium grown on potato sucrose broth was subjected to electrophoresis. Similarities in the protein bands for each isolated of one species were compared with those for others. In the banding patterns there was a closer relationship between isolates within one species than among isolates of different species. However, the isozyme patterns obtained from each isolate of Peurotus ostreatus (esterase, peroxidase, tyrosinase) were appeared to represent the degree of geographical variability within one species.

To classify fungal species employed for pharmacological effects, mycelial proteins of six isolates of Ganoderma lucidum, five isolates of Schizophyllum commune and five isolates of Cordyceps spp. were separated on polyacrylamide gel to compare them by esterase, acid phosphatase, leucine aminopeptidase and peroxidase patterns. Similarity of isozyme patterns among the isolates of G. lucidum IY003, IY004, IY005 and IY008 was indicated over 70%, but that among the isolates of G. lucidum IY009, IY010 and others was indicated from 48% to 9%. Highest similarity of isozymes of S. commune was observed to be between IY803 and IY805, and similarity between these two isolates was 57%. Similarity among other isolates was shown to be from 40% to 56%. Isozyme patterns of Cordyceps spp. were comparatively different, even though they were originated from the same kind of insect as their isolate. Similarity between Cordyceps spp. IY901 and IY904, which was isolated from moths, was 67% and that of IY905 and IY909, which was originated from the larvae, was 42%. Similarity among other isolates was shown to be from 12% to 67%.

With the 91 lines of Italian millet collected throughout the whole country in Korea and the 238 varieties from several Asian countries, trial was carried out to elucidate its differentiation, dissemination and distribution, and the ethnobotanical relations to the adjacent area. Glutinous millets which consisted of 66% among the collected Korean lines were widely distributed throughout the whole country, but non-glutinous ones were mainly distributed in the mountainous regions and Jeju island. The variations in germinability at low temperature were recognized among lines, but seemed not to be closely related to their regional distribution. The collected lines with small grain size were distributed mainly in the mountainous regions of middle and northern part of Korea and larger ones in Jeonnam province and Jeju island. And some of them were larger in grain size as compared with that of Japanese and Republic of China varieties. Seed coat color of collected lines in Korea showed wide variations from yellow to gray, especially in Gyungbuk province. However, all lines from Chungnam, Jeonnam and Gyungnam province were yellow in seed coat color. All lines from Korean collection except two lines indicated negative(-) phenol reaction which is very similar to that of Japan and China, while these were quite different from the varieties of Republic of China, Philippines and India, of which 30-60% showed positive(+) phenol reaction. The pattern of the esterase isozyme m Korean lines was simillar to that of Japanese lines and this was quite different from that of Republic of China, Philippines and India. Variation of this trait was greater in Chinese and Korean lines.

A field-resistant strain of the diamondback-moth(Plutella xylostella L.), collected from Chinese cabbage alpine farmland at Gangwon-do, Korea, was used for determination of the characteristics of resistance to chlorpyrifos using the activities of esterases and glutathione-S-transferase(GST), protein sequestration and AChE insenstivity. Although the activities of esterases extracted from resistant strain and susceptible strain were not significantly different, isozyme bands shown on the electrophoresis were different. GST activity from field resistant strain was 1.5-fold higher than that of susceptible. No differences were shown between resistant and susceptible ones in protein sequestration. The insensitivities of AChE to chlorpyrifos, however, extracted from susceptible strain was 460-fold higher than those of resistant. These results indicated that the insensitivity of AChE is the major factor for developing the resistance and activities of GST might be a minor factor.

The protoplast formation of Rhizoctonia solani in the fast growing anastomosis groups (AGs) 1 and 4, the intermediate AG-2 and AG-5, and the slow AG-3 yielded the most, moderate and the least in that order, respectively. Sclerotia formation varied with AGs. A high yield of protoplasts from AGs was obtained with a combined lytic enzyme system containing cellulase 'Onozuka' R-10, macerozyme R-10 and ${\beta}-glucuronidase$. When 3g (fresh weight) of 30 hr old mycelia was incubated for 3 hr at $32^{\circ}C$ with the enzyme mixture in 0.6 M mannitol, maximum protoplasts were obtained in the five AGs. A protoplast fusion between sclerotia forming AG-1 inactivated with heat and non-forming AG-5 was induced by polyethylene glycol and ${Ca}^{2+}$. Seven fusants obtained were based on characteristics of colony and sclerotium formation on culture plates. The fusants were confirmed by isozyme patterns of esterase and killing reaction between AG-1 and a fusant F1501.

In order to compare collected strains of Naematoloma sublateritium, electrophoretic isozyme and RAPD band patterns of DNA from mycelia were studied. The two characteristics of the strain, ASI 11010 were much different from those of ASI 11005 and 11006. These patterns may be used as valuable criteria for identifying strains of N. sublateritium. Optimal conditions on the vegetative growth of N. sublateritium using sawdust media were favourable on alder sawdust media added with 30% beer waste. Optimal water content was 70%.
