  • 시호의 화기구조 및 화기내 각 기관의 발달과정을 파악하여 육종의 기초자료로 활용하고자 본 시험을 수행하였다. 소화의 전체크기는 2mm정도로 매우 작으며, 산경 및 소산경의 길이는 각각 22.5mm, 3.6mm이었다 또한 자예, 웅예의 길이는 각각 1.0mm, 1.3mm이었고, 자방표면은 길이 0.9mm, 폭 1.4mm정도를 나타내었다. 시호의 화기 발달과정 각 시기는 웅예출현기 $1{\sim}6$일, 화판탈락 및 자예출현기 $6{\sim}8$일, 자예성숙기 $8{\sim}16$일, 자예퇴화기 16일 이후로 구분할 수 있었다. 따라서 시호는 자웅이숙 중 웅예성숙으로 타화수정을 하는 식물로 인정되었다.

  • Background: Bees and flowering plants associations were initially began during the early Cretaceous, 120 million years ago. This coexistence has led to a mutual relationship where the plant serves as food and in return, the bee help them their reproduction. Animals pollinate about 75% of food crops worldwide, with bees as the world's primary pollinator. In general, bees rely on flower scents to locate blooming flowers as visual clue is limited and also their host plants from a distance. In this review, an attempt is made to collect some relevant 107 published papers from three scientific databases, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Web of Science database, covering the period from 1959 to 2021. Results: Flowering plants are well documented to actively emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs). However, only a few of them are important for eliciting behavioral responses in bees. In this review, fifty-three volatile organic compounds belonging to different class of compounds, mainly terpenoids, benzenoids, and volatile fatty acid derivatives, is compiled here from floral scents that are responsible for eliciting behavioral responses in bees. Bees generally use honest floral signals to locate their host plants with nectar and pollen-rich flowers. Thus, honest signaling mechanism plays a key role in maintaining mutualistic plant-pollinator associations. Conclusions: Considering the fact that floral scents are the primary attractants, understanding and identification of VOCs from floral scent in plant-pollinator networks are crucial to improve crop pollination. Interestingly, current advances in both VOCs scent gene identification and their biosynthetic pathways make it possible to manipulate particular VOCs in plant, and this eventually may lead to increase in crop productivity.

  • To define the relations between endogenous GA levels and growth and flowering in short-day plant sorghum, growth retardant BX-112 was applied to two sorghum genotypes, wild-type and phytochrome B mutant (phyB-1), which grows faster and flowers earlier than the wild-type. BX-112 and $GA_3$ were applied as a soil drench, and plant height, culm length, and date to floral initiation were investigated. Endogenous GAs contents were measured with GC-MS-SIM. BX-112 treatments inhibited shoot growth in both genotypes and drastically reduced $GA_1$ and $GA_8$ levels. With increasing BX-112 concentrations, $GA_1$ concentrations declined linearly, but caused the accumulation of intermediates from $GA_12$ to $GA_20$. This result implies that $GA_1$ is the major active endogenous GA in shoot elongation in a short day plant sorghum. The inhibition of plant growth in both of wild type and phyB-1 by BX-112 was very similar, while BX-112 effects on floral initiation in two types of plants differed significantly. Floral initiation of phyB-1 was not affected by BX-1l2, but that of wild-type was delayed as BX-1l2 concentration increased. Because BX-112 treatment causes accumulation of biosynthetic intermediates between synthetic pathway from $GA_12$ to $GA_20$ and because phyB-1 is altered in GA metabolism in this same region of the early C13-hydroxylation pathway, BX-112 may fail to block flowering of phyB-1.

  • 겨우살이 기생위치는 숙주목(상수리나무 등)의 종류에 관계없이 대부분 지면에서 5-10m높이의 일사량이 많은 상단부에 기생하였다. 줄기의 분화는 주경에서 2개씩 연속분지를 형성하였고, 잎은 정단줄기의 상단부에 2매씩 대생하였으며, 종실은 연황색의 7-8mm 크기의 장과였다. 겨우살이 화아분화는 초기 둥근 돔형의 화아정단이 형성되고 엽원기가 1, 2매 차례로 분화한 다음 심장형으로 발달하며 악편이 발생하였는데, 중앙부에서 먼저 진행되었고 이어 양측 면에 2개를 형성하였다. 잎은 이면의 표피 2-3층 아래에 기공과 공변세포가 관찰되었고, 겨우살이는 기주목의 흡착부에서 기주조직의 코르크층을 통과하여 목질부에 뿌리를 내리고 여러 갈래로 분지하여 생장하는 것을 확인하였다.

  • Astragalus membranaceus has flowers that are similar to that of the legume family, but shows poor bearing when self-pollination is induced. Thus, this study was carried out observing the ripening procedure of pistils and stamens and development stages of pollen in the context of the birth and growth of the flower. As to the bearing of the flower of A. membranaceus, few pod setting and 13% pod setting were observed when self-pollination is induced by paper-bag covering or artificial pollination treated respectively. The result indicates that A. membranaceus is a cross-pollination plant. A pistil grew faster than a stamen until just before blooming. The flower size was about 17.0mm$\times$4.0mm. Pistils and stamens had the same length after flowering. Pollen mother cells passed through meiosis and mitosis when its length reached around 3.5mm, thus creating the tetrade when 4 mm long. Pollen attained full growth when the bud was about 10mm long. An anther was found to tend to dehisce when the length of a bud reached around 12.0mm. As to the shape of pollen, about 70 % were normal. 1% and 30 % were small or empty pollen respectively. The result indicates that pollen of A. membranaceus attains full growth just before anther dehiscence which occurs before blooming while pistils grow faster than stamens until before flowering.

  • Inflorescence architecture mainly contributes to final grain yield in crops. Sorghum inflorescence is basically composed of one fertile sessile spikelet (SS) and two infertile pedicellate spikelets (PS). To identify regulatory factors involved in the inflorescence architecture, we screened an EMS mutagenesis population from the pedigreed sorghum mutant library. We found inflorescent architecture mutants, named as multi-seed mutants, msd, with gained fertile ability in PS and also an increased number of floral branches. In natural sorghum populations, it is not common that are fertile. A detailed dissection of developmental stages of wild type and msd1 mutant described that the PS in wild type do not have floral organs, including ovary, stigma, filament and anther, while the msd1 mutants generate intact floral organ in the sessile spikelet. We found MSD1 encoded a TCP transcription factor using bulk segregant analysis (BSA) of F2 population, and was a strongly enriched expression during inflorescence developmental stages. We proposed that MSD1 functions to suppress floral organ maintenance at PS during inflorescence development in Sorghum. To explore the regulatory network associated with PS fertility, whole genome expression profiling was performed at 4 different developmental stages in 6 various tissue types between wild type and msd1. Taken together, we demonstrated that MSD1 was involved in the plant hormone and maybe influenced program cell death in PS via the activation of plant hormonal pathway.

  • Morphological alteration of floral organ development in rice affected by chilling stress was examined. Three varieties of rice were grown under natural conditions and subjected to 12$^{\circ}C$ for 3 or 6 days starting from the ineffective tillering stage, before heading stage and returned to natural condition. Headings were delayed by a 6 day chilling treatment. After heading the panicles were collected and examined for any possible alteration in floral organ development. It appears that there were some differences in sensitivity to chilling stress and degree of injury depending on treatment stages and variety. Chuchungbyeo was the most frequent in producing abnormal flowers among the three varieties examined. Meiosis stage was shown to be the most vulnerable to chilling stress in both Chuchungbyeo and Ilpumbyeo and young panicle differentiation stage was the frequent stage to alter flower development in response to chilling stress only in Chuchungbyeo. It was confirmed that abnormalities occurred in pollen due to chilling stress is a major factor leading to low yield, but to some extent the alterations in carpel development may playa certain role in determining a total yield in response to chilling stress at the reproduction stage in rice. There were abnormalities like extra stigmata, extra lemma, double ovary as well as abnormal anther formation in response to chilling stress. Further studies of the phenocopy observed in rice floral development may be useful for an understanding of the resistance against chilling injury during reproductive stages in rice.

  • 중ㆍ산간지대에 재배되는 참당귀의 화성억제에 의한 추대율 감소를 위하여 1992년 2월부터 1994년 11월까지 경북농림진흥원 북부시험장에서 육묘지대, 육묘지간 및 유기물 시용에 따른 화성 및 품질을 비교 분석한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 육묘지대에 따른 추대율은 표고가 높을수록 현저히 낮았고, 아울러 지하부 생육 및 수량이 200, 400m인 지대보다 양호하여 참당귀의 육묘적지는 적어도 표고 600m 이상이 적당하다고 적당된다. 2. 중ㆍ산간 지대에서는 육묘기간이 짧아질수록 추대율이 현저하게 낮아서 수량은 증수되었지만, extract 및 decursin 함량은 육묘기간이 길어질수록 증가하여 육묘기간과 품질면에서는 반대되는 경향이었다. 3. 유기물 자원별에 따른 추대반응은 단비 시용구보다 유기물 시용구에서 추대율이 낮았으며, 특히 볏짚퇴비에서 가장 낮았고 수량 및 품질반응은 관행재배보다 유기물 시용구에서 양호하였지만 유기물 자원간에는 뚜렷한 차이를 보이지 않았다.
