100% root formation in in vitro cultures was observed regardless of kind and levels of auxin used and explant source. The number of roots/explant was increased in 0.5~1.0 mg/L IAA treatment. Thicker roots were observed with the addition of 9% sucrose compared with medium containing lower sucrose concentrations. Paclobutrazol and chlormequat had no effect on tuberization of formed roots but slightly increased the number of root. In in vivo rooting, soaking of regenerated shoot cuttings to 100 mg/L IBA for 15 to 60 minutes was found effective. Treatment of 0.1% IBA rooting powder and planting in rooting medium composred of vermiculite(1) : perlite(1) gave 100% rooting and survival.

In order to develop an efficient in vitro micropropagation technique for a rare plant species, Astragalus membranaceus Bunge var. alpinus N., shoot proliferation and in vitro or in vivo rootings were conducted and hyperhydrated leaf generated from cultures was histologically observed. During shoot induction, no distinct effect on multiple shoot induction was found between BA and kinetin treatment. BA enhanced the number of internodes, whereas kinetin stimulated shoot elongation. Hyperhydrated leaf composed of bigger cells and retarded palisade parenchyma and showed irregular cell arrangement compared to normal leaf. Especially starch content in hyperhydrated leaf was significantly reduced. The best rooting rate was achieved by B5 medium among three different medium (B5, MS and WPM) and 0.1mg/L IBA treatment induced the highest rooting ratio (80%). No statistical difference was induced by explant types (apical bud or axillary bud) in terms of rooting ratio. In vivo cutting induced rooting rate up to 65% by 0.5% IBA/Talc powder treatment. Although in vivo rooting rate was less efficient compared to in vitro rooting, better survival rate was observed after soil acclimatization. Present study suggested that above micropropagation techniques can be used for rapid multiplication as well as in vitro or in vivo conservation of the species.

The shoot tips of Delphinium cv. Princess Caroline were cultured on the MS medium supplemented with cytokinin and auxin alone or in combination. Among cytokinins, BA was most effective in shoot multiplication, adequqte concentrations being 1.0-5.0 mg/L. Shoot multiplication was very favorable on the media with 1.0-3.0 mg/L BA and 0.1-0.5 mg/L IAA. Additions of BA and IAA did not stimulate shoot multiplication, but increased a little fresh weight. Shoots were scarcely rooted on the media with IBA or NAA, and were not done utterly on the media containing activated charcoal. Therefore, shoots were treated by Rootone and planted in the cultural media for in vivo rooting. The highest rate of rooting was 68% in the mixed cultural medium composed of Perlite 1 and Vermiculite 1.

Growth of M.9 (Malus domestica Bark. cv) and M.26 (Malus domestica Bark. cv) of dwarf apple rootstock, cultured on MS agar medium in a vessel with ventilating stopper (VS) and then in vivo rooting and acclimatization under combined-treatment by some materials with IBA, were investigated. Concentration of $CO_2$ and ethylene in the vessel with VS was lower then in the vessel with non-VS. Change of temperature and humidity in the vessel with VS was repeated by light condition. Stomatal pares of tissue in the vessel with VS were immediately closed after plantlets were exposed to room humidity but those in the vessel with non-VS were opened after 20 minutes exposure to room humidity. Leaf area and chloroplast index of tissue in the vessel with VS was higher then in the vessel with non-VS. In vivo rooting ratio and acclimatization ratio of M.9 and M.26 was highest in 300mg/L IBA＋3％ sucrose dip-treatment among other combined- treatments.

A protocol is described for rapid multiplication of Zanthoxylum piperitum DC. (Rutaceae), an important aromatic and medicinal plant, through shoot-tip explant cultures. Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with various concentrations of N-6-benzyladenine (BA), N-6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and thidiazuron (TDZ), in single or in combination with ${\alpha}-naphthaleneacetic$ acid (NAA), was used to determine the rate of shoot proliferation. N-6-benzyladenine (BA) used at 0.5mg/l, was the most effective in initiating multiple shoot proliferation at the rate of 23 microshoots per shoot-tip explants after 40 days of culture. Shoot multiplication increased 1.2-fold in each successive subculture. Induction of rooting (98%) was achieved by transferring the shoots to the same basal medium containing 2 mg/l indole-3-butyric acid (IBA). Plantlets went through a hardening phase in a controlled growth chamber, prior to in vivo transfer. These results represented that possible application for the mass production of plantlets through in vitro culture system of Zanthoxylum piperitum DC.

An in vtro nucellar polyembryo propagation method was established with mature seed of the Citrus junos Sieb. 7-8 nucellar polyembryos per seed were induced on MS basal medium without plant growth regulators. The polyembryos developed to complete plantlets on teatment with IBA. These shoots grew further in MS medium without plant growth regulators. Rooting of shoots occurred on MS medium supplemented with IBA. These plantlets were successfully transplanted to small plastic pot containing soil mixture. Somatic embryos were induced from nucellar polyembryo and maturation occurred spontaneously from proliferating cultures on MS medium without growth regulators. Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) marker analysis of in vitro and in vivo grown junos orange showed identical polymorphism indicative of their genetic stability. The RAPD polymorphism produced revealed same banding pattern in each regenerant. Hence, propagaton of junos orange by nucellalr polyembryos was efficient and produced in genetically stable plants under in vitro conditions.

Development of modern agricultural machinery and accompanying agricultural development cause soil compaction and reduce growth by stressing roots. Kalanchoe pinnata was used to investigate the impact of stress on rooting and changes in plant growth and reproduction. K. pinnata forms somatic embryos capable of asexual reproduction at the edge of leaves. Impact of root pressurization of K. pinnata on somatic embryogenesis and organ differentiation according to external stress factors was investigated by using a high concentration of agar and this phenomenon was studied histologically. Agar concentration in culture media ranged from 0.5%-1.5% to induce a compression effect on roots. The stem and leaf of K. pinnata were subjected to a microtechnique process to study changes in tissue. In vivo, K. pinnata produced 2nd and 3rd plantlets at edges of leaves from lack of water and excessive lighting conditions. In in vitro culture studies, the lower the concentration of agar, the higher the population and the higher the biomass, but plantlet did not occur in leaf bends. Conversely, as concentration of agar increased, increase in the number of individuals was low. Plantlet development occurred only in agar 1.5% medium. The difference in agar concentration was a stressor in the root of K. pinnata, and thus the pattern of asexual reproduction changed from the division method in root to a plantlet generation in leaf. This suggests root pressurization may act as stress and change in the plant reproduction pattern.

Kiwi (Actinidia deliciosa) is exotic plant and thus susceptible to cold climate in the middle part of Korean peninsular. Several hybrids have recently been developed to enhance cold tolerance by crossing them with domestic species (A. arguta), We have developed an efficient micropropagation technique for the hybrids using both axillary bud and callus culture systems. Shoot proliferation from axillary buds was possible on St medium supplemented with 0.2 mg/L Bh and 3.0 mg/L GA$_3$. In vivo cuttings of the proliferated shoots were more effective for root induction and subsequent survival than in vitro rooting. More than 95% of the plantlets were successfully transferred to field. Effective callus induction was achieved on MS or B$_{5}$ medium with 2,4-D or NAA. Although callus induction could be made from any combinations of media and auxins, shoot regeneration was observed only from the callus induced on medium containing NAA.A.
