Timber from fast-growing tree species is susceptible to by biodeterioration attack, particularly subterranean termites. Impregnation with methyl methacrylate (MMA) potentially increases wood resistance to subterranean termite attack. Four wood species, namely sengon (Falcataria moluccana), jabon (Anthocephalus cadamba), mangium (Acacia mangium), and pine (Pinus merkusii), were impregnated with MMA, and samples of untreated and imidacloprid-preserved wood were prepared for comparison purposes. Small stakes, sized 0.8 cm by 2 cm in cross section by 20 cm in the longitudinal direction, were inserted into the ground for 3 months, and the weight loss of each specimen was determined at the end of the test period. A factorial $4{\times}3$ completely randomized design was used for data analysis; the first factor was wood species, and the second factor was treatment. The results showed that MMA polymer loadings were 27.88%, 24.91%, 14.14%, and 17.81% for sengon, jabon, mangium, and pine, respectively, and amounts of imidacloprid retention were $7.56kg/m^3$, $5.98kg/m^3$, $5.34kg/m^3$, and $9.53kg/m^3$, respectively. According to an analysis of variance, wood species, treatment, and interaction of both factors significantly affected the weight loss of wood specimens. Mangium had the smallest weight loss, followed by pine, sengon, and jabon. MMA impregnation into the wood increased the resistance of wood samples to subterranean termite attack during in-ground testing, but the resistance level was lower than that of imidacloprid-preserved wood. Except for mangium wood, the MMA treatment did not significantly affect resistance.

Xylia xylocarpa is fast-growing trees that are currently planted on trial basis in Sabah, Malaysia. The wood quality of trees grown in Sabah may differ from those grown in other places due to the environmental factors. Five 9-year-old trees of each species were extracted from their respective plots at Luasong, Tawau. Wood specimens were prepared from three height levels; bottom, middle and top, at the inner and outer radial positions. The within-tree and between-tree variations of physical properties of these species were analyzed. The basic density, oven-dry density and green moisture content(MC) are 0.72g/$cm^3$, 0.78g/$cm^3$ and 49.8% respectively. The shrinkage from green to oven-dry conditions for the radial and tangential directions were 3.35% and 5.76%, respectively. The trends of within-tree variations for most properties were more consistent in radial rather than vertical direction. This suggests diameter growth to be a more important factor contributing to the variations compared to height. Samples from the outer part of the stem were found to have higher density, shrinkage and mechanical strengths. The between-trees variations of some wood properties were found to be significantly different, probably due to genetic and micro-environmental factors. Significant correlation was recorded among the physical properties of the species. The true potential of X. xylocarpa for end-uses would be enhanced by further research such as the study on properties of wood from different sites and other properties like durability, seasoning, processing and machining characteristics. The characteristics of X. xylocarpa are comparable to a number of local popular hardwood species, indicating its suitability for heavy construction uses.

Bealmijang is a short-term aged paste made from meju, which is a brick of fermented soybeans and other ingredients. Different types of bealmijang are available depending on the geographic region or ingredients used. However, no study has clarified the microbial diversity of these types. We identified 17 and 14 fungal species from black soybean meju (BSM) and buckwheat meju (BWM), respectively, on the basis of morphology, culture characteristics, and internal transcribed spacer and ${\beta}$-tubulin gene sequencing. In both meju, Aspergillus oryzae, Rhizopus oryzae, Penicillium polonicum, P. steckii, Cladosporium tenuissimum, C. cladosporioides, C. uredinicola, and yeast species Pichia burtonii were commonly found. Moreover, A. flavus, A. niger, P. crustosum, P. citrinum, Eurotium niveoglaucum, Absidia corymbifera, Setomelanomma holmii, Cladosporium spp. and unclassified species were identified from BSM. A. clavatus, Mucor circinelloides, M. racemosus, P. brevicompactum, Davidiella tassiana, and Cladosporium spp. were isolated from BWM. Fast growing Zygomycetous fungi is considered important for the early stage of meju fermentation, and A. oryae and A. niger might play a pivotal role in meju fermentation owing to their excellent enzyme productive activities. It is supposed that Penicillium sp. and Pichia burtonii could contribute to the flavor of the final food products. Identification of this fungal diversity will be useful for understanding the microbiota that participate in meju fermentation, and these fungal isolates can be utilized in the fermented foods and biotechnology industries.

It is possible to divide the historical changes of slope revegetation in Japan into five periods as follows; 1) The early period after creation(1927-1948), 2) The spreading period of modern revegetation work with manpower(1947-1958), 3) The spreading period of rapid revegetation technique using exotic grasses with machineries(1959-1985${\dots}$), 4) The spreading period of rapid reforestation technique by fast growing species mainly using leguminous shrub species(1986-1995${\dots}$), 5) The developing period of nature restoration technique using endemic arborous species(1996-). Recently main purpose of slope revegetation has been developing from the erosion protection to the nature restoration in the current of the 5th period. It is said that the role of the Japanese Society of Revegetation Technology(JSRT) is critical to the history of slope revegetation in Japan. 'The tentative guidelines of slope nature restoration' was announced by JSRT in 2004. In the guidelines, it was proposed that the planning techniques of using suitable seeds/plants based on the preservation level at the each construction sites. Moreover, the use of soil seed bank is the new and important study theme in the field of nature restoration. Consequently, at present the importance of advanced monitoring methods for vegetation maintenance and plant sociologic survey to evaluate the plant succession is increasing. Finally, some critical concepts are necessary to develop the field of restoration in Korea as follows; 1) monitoring of constructed sites, 2) ensuring of biodiversity, 3) recognition of slow revegetation and mosaic arrangement in revegetation, 4) reuse and recycle on the construction sites, and 5) promotion of specialist.

뉴질랜드 북섬의 다우지역에서 라디아타소나무 유묘생장이 일련의 주요 잡초종과의 경쟁으로 인하여 감소함을 계량화(計量化)하기 위하여 계획된 실험의 2차년도 결과이다. 라디아타소나무 유묘(1/0)들을 각각 잡초제거구와 활엽성초본, 목초, broom, pampas, buddleia, gorse와 함께 생육시켰다. 양료와 수분공급은 각 요인에 관수와 시비, 무관수와 무시비로 다양화하였다. 식재 21개월 후 라디아타소나무 유묘의 재적생장량은 잡초제거구와 gorse와 함께 생육된 구에서 최대였고 buddleia나 pampas와 함께 생육된 곳에서는 최소였다. 유묘생장에 대한 잡초의 영향이 수분이나 양료 경쟁에 의해 조정된다는 증거가 없었다. 유묘를 능가하여 치솟는 키크고 빨리 자라는 종(broom, buddleia, pampas)들이 유묘 생장에 가장 큰 영향력을 갖고 있고 그 영향력의 크기는 유묘 위에 뒤덮는 정도와 상관관계가 있었다. 이것은 피음 혹은 광경쟁이 아마도 중요한 인자임을 암시해 주고 있다.

Termites are a serious threat to wood-based products in Indonesia. This study investigated the termite resistant property of glulam made from polystyrene-modified wood. Three tropical fast-growing wood species, namely mangium (Acacia mangium), manii (Maesopsis eminii), and rubberwood (Hevea brasiliensis), were prepared for flat-sawn laminae. After getting air-dried condition, the laminae were impregnated with polystyrene using potassium peroxydisulphate as a catalyst followed by polymerization at 80℃. Polystyrene-impregnated and control glued-laminated lumbers (glulams) were manufactured, and solid wood was provided. Three wood species and three wood products with six replicates were exposed in a field in Bogor, Indonesia, for four months, and before the tests, their density and moisture content were measured. At the end of the field tests, the weight loss and protection levels of each test sample were determined. A completely randomized factorial design was used for data analysis. The weight percentage gains for mangium, manii, and rubberwood were 22.30%, 18.22%, and 10.44%, respectively. The results showed that manii belonged to low-density wood, whereas the other two woods were medium-density wood, and the moisture content was the ambient moisture content, typical of the Bogor area. Regarding weight loss and protection level, mangium was the most durable against subterranean termite attacks, followed by rubberwood and manii. Among the wood products, the polystyrene-impregnated glulam presented the highest durability, followed by the control glulam and solid wood. Therefore, mangium and rubberwood polystyrene-impregnated glulams are recommended for future product development.

도시의 식재림을 자연림으로 복원하기 위한 기초로서 서울시 강남구 청담동에 위치한 청담근린공원내에서 교목층을 구성하고 있는 은수원사시나무를 벌목한 후 초기 2년간 맹아의 생장 및 맹아가 식생에 미치는 효과를 조사하였다. 벌목된 후 맹아의 발생량에서 모체의 기저면적이 넓을수록 맹아의 수와 생체량이 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며 후자가 전자보다 더욱 관계가 깊었다. 그리고 맹아의 생산량은 벌목 첫 해에 552.7g?DW/㎡, 맹아의 제거 후 익년에 8.7 g?DW/㎡이었다. 따라서 맹아의 제거는 익년의 맹아발생을 급격히 감소하는 결과를 초래하는 것으로 나타났다. 맹아를 제거하지 않은 지역에서 익년의 지상부 건중량은 657.4 g?DW/㎡에 달하여 맹아를 제거하지 않은 지역의 2년간 생산량보다 많았다. 특히 2년생 맹아의 높이는 304 cm에 달하였다. 맹아의 생장은 4월말부터 8월말까지 이었으며 매우 늦은 시기까지 잎이 남아 있었다. 비엽적은 시간이 경과함에 따라, 상층으로 갈수록 다소 감소하였으나 큰 차이가 없었다. 따라서 은수원사시나무 맹아의 생장이 빠른 것은 생육기간이 길고 하층의 잎이 생육후기까지 남아 있기 때문으로 나타났다. 은수원사시나무 맹아를 제거한 경우, 관목층의 구성종은 변화가 없었으나 초본층의 경우 종 수가 현저히 증가하였으며 관목층의 피도는 증가하였으나 초본층에서는 큰 변화가 없었다. 맹아를 제거하지 않은 경우, 관목층과 초본층의 구성종과 피도 모두 변화가 적었다. 그리고 맹아를 제거하지 않은 지역의 초본의 주요 구성종은 초장이 큰 미국자리공, 서양등골나물 및 큰기름새이었다.

SCB액비, 저장액비, 화학비료, 지하수 및 무처리에 따른 포플러 및 버드나무 클론, 백합나무의 생존율은 전체 평균 94.4%로 나타나 양호하였으며, 잎과 줄기의 비율은 각각 63.5%, 36.5%로 매년수확구의 식재당년 지상부 biomass는 잎의 비율이 높았다. 처리구별 줄기발생 수는 SCB액비, 저장액비, 화학비료, 지하수 및 무처리구가 평균 4.2, 4.6, 4.5, 4.7, 4.9개로 크게 차이가 나타나지 않았으며 버드나무 클론들의 줄기 수가 포플러 클론 및 백합나무 보다 많았다. 줄기직경과 지상부 biomass에 대하여 개체당 유도된 회귀모델을 통해 추정된 biomass 생산량은 화학비료>저장액비>지하수>SCB액비>무처리구 순으로 나타났다. 수종 및 클론별 지상부 biomass 생산량은 모든 처리구에서 현사시 클론들이 우수하게 나타났으며, SCB액비 처리에 따른 잎과 줄기의 질소함량을 분석한 결과 무처리구 보다 질소함 량이 높게 나타나 SCB액비에 함유된 질소를 체내에 흡수하는 것으로 판단된다. 따라서, SCB액비를 biomass 매년수확구에 처리한 결과 화학비료, 저장액비, 지하수 처리구보다 생산량이 적게 나타났지만 무처리구 보다는 생산량이 증가하여 향후 처리방법이나 적정 처리량 등을 구명하여 적용한다면 화학비료와 비슷한 효과를 얻을 수 있고 가축분뇨 처리비용도 절감할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 본 연구는 biomass 매년수확구의 식재당년의 결과이며, 식재한 묘목의 수령이 증가하고 입지환경에 적응되면 바이오매스 생산량도 대폭 증가할 것이므로 이와 같은 연구가 반복적으로 수행되어야 보다 확실한 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
