Electrophoretic isozyme patterns from mycelia, primordia, cap and stem of Pleurotus spp. collected in Korea were compared. Primordia, cap and stem of fruitbody showed very similar isozyme patterns but mycelial isozyme patterns were different from those of fruitbody. Isozyme patterns of malate dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase in Pleurotus ostreatus collected from different regions in Korea were similar but those of esterase, peroxidase, leucine amino peptidase and superoxide dismutase were different. Interspecific comparison of esterase isozyme patterns among Pleurotus ostreatus P. cornucopiae and, P. florida was very different and may be valuable subsidiary tool to conventional taxonomic techniques for identifying species of Pleurotus. A dendrogram by similarities of isozyme band pattern was presented.

In order to pursue some physiological studies on organogenesis in ginseng tissue culture, ginseng root explants were cultured on a modified MS medium containing NAA and kinetin. The activities of peroxidase and some enzymes were investigated and their isoenzyme patterns were also observed. The activity of peroxidase decreased by 20% in one week's culture and increased thereafter by 80% in culturing for 7 weeks compared with the control group. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity increased by 400% after culturing for 5 weeks and increased during the days preceeding root formation. The activities of glutamate dehydrogenase and acid phosphatase also increased during the culture. After 3 weeks' culture, new peroxidase isozyme (pH 7.6) appeared and 7 weeks' culture, another new peroxidase isozyme (pH unidentified) appeared. These patterns were also identified by using FPLC. After 7 weeks' culture, a new esterase isozyme of pH 8.5 appeared and isozyme patterns of acid phosphatase were quite changed compared with the isozyme patterns of tissue cultured for 5 weeks. In so far as these new isoenzymes appear distinctively after 7 weeks' culture, root differentiation is supposed to be induced after 7 weeks' culture.

The present researches were carried out to investigate the effects of gibberellic acid on the appearance of isozyme patterns of esterase, phosphatase, amylase and peroxidase, also to investigate if there were any differences of the isozyme patterns among root, shoot and seeds of rice plants. It was noticed that the isozyme patterns of the above tested enzymes were differ among the organs, root, shoot and seed. The GA treated plants showed difference of esterase patterns in root from Akibare and the difference in shoot and root from Yushin, phosphatase patterns in root from Akibare. However, the GA did not affect isozyme patterns of amylase or peroxidase. The seed should be the suitable organ to study isozyme patterns for genetics or variety characterization of rice plant.

The microtuber was efficiently formed on SH medium containing 9% sucrose from the in vitro propagated shoot of potato (Solanum tuberosum cv. Sumi). In order to investigate gene expression depending on the development stage of microtuber, we examined the changes of peroxidase and esterase activities, and their isozyme patterns as well. Peroxidase and esterase activities were the highest at the 7 day-culture of the microtuber and subsequently decreased on the stage of microtuberization, whereas esterase activity increased at the stage of 60 day-culture. However, their activities in the ordinary tuber were higher than those of 60 day-cultured microtuber. In addition, in the peroxidase isozyme pattern two new bands of pI 7.05 and pI 4.65 were appeared at the 15- day and 60 day-cultures, respectively, as shown by isoelectric focusing. Various bands in the sterase isozyme pattern were shown at the 7 day-culture, and the band patterns were a large difference, comparing those of shoot and tuber. New bands in the esterase isozyme pattern also appeared at the 15 day- (pI4.52) and 60 day-cultures (pI 4.48). These results suggest that the changes of peroxidase and esterase activities and isozyme patterns are an important factor in the differentiation and development of potato.

A comparative electrophoretic study on protein and several important enzymes of calli induced from stem, intercostal area and minor vein area were conducted in Pinella ternata (Thunb.) Breit. Soluble protein band patterns of calli induced from stem, intercostal area and minor vein area were distinctly different from those of the corresponding plant parts. Esterase isozyme patterns of calli induced from stem, intercostal area and minor vein area were different from those of the corresponding plant parts. Glutamate oxalo-acetate transaminase isozyme patterns of calli grown for 4 weeks induced from 3 plant parts were similar to those of the corresponding plant parts. But a high molecular weight isozyme band appeared in the calli grown for 8 weeks. Alow molecular weight isozyme band disappeared on the peroxidase isozyme patterns of calli grown for 4 weeks appeared on those of the corresponding plant parts.

From the experimental results of cellulose acetate membrane electrophoresis we concluded the followings in explaining the LDH isozyme patterns found in the retina and cerebrum of vertebrata. Lactate dehydrogenase of the retina and cerebrum of both Carassinus carassinus and Cyprinus carpio was found to have one diffused band located between $LDH_2$ and $LDH_1$. LDH isozyme patterns of heart, pectoral muscle, liver and stomach of the Cyprinus carpio had the same diffused band in all organs. LDH isozyme patterns of the cerebrum of Hynobius leechii and Rana nigromaculata were observed to be different, in Hynobius leeichi a single band moved to the negative pole and two bands of $LDH_5$ and $LDH_4$ were obtained in the Rana nigromaculata. The retina and cerebrum of Natrix tigrina lateralis were observed as one band but amyda maakii had different LDH isozymes of the retina and cerebrum. The retina of Amyda maakii had five distinct LDH isozyme bands which had decreasing activity in the order of $LDH_5, LDH_4, LDH_3, LDH_2 and LDH_1$. The cerebrum of Amyda maakii had one band like Natrix tigrina lateralis but it moved to the negative pole. LDH isozymes in the retina and cerebrum of Gallus gallus domesticus and Melopsittacus undulatus showed one band. Five characteristic LDH isozyme bands were obtained from the retina of mammals, Oryctolagus cuniclus, Canis familiaris, Sus scrofa bos taurus and in the cerebrum of mouse, albino rat, Rhinolophus ferrum-equinum kokai.

Sixty-three isolates of Lentinus edodes obtained from Korea were used to assess the genetic similarity by isozyme polymorphisms and random amplified polymorphic DNA patterns. The activities of esterase, peroxidase and acid phosphatase displayed 10, 7 and 3 distinct isozyme patterns, respectively. By combining the isozyme patterns obtained with the 3 enzymes, every isolate showed its own distinct electrophoretic phenotypes. A distance matrix calculated between all pairs of 63 electrophoretic phenotypes based on the presence or abscence of isozyme bands were analyzed by the group-average method. Results of the cluster analysis assinged the 63 phenotypes into six major groups. In the analysis of random amplified polymorphic DNA patterns, all isolates of Lentinus edodes were devided into five RAPD groups.

The physiological changes of somatic embryogenesis in cultured pepper cells (Capsicum annuum L. cv Shinhong) were investigated. The somatic embryogenesis was induced by cultivating the callus in hormone-free MS medium. The peroxidase patterns in the somatic embryogenic cells and the culture medium was revealed three and two of cathodic and anodic bands by isoelectric focusing respectively. Activity of peroxidase released into culture medium was 4 times higher than that of 12th day cultured cells. At the heart stage, the isozyme patterns of the MDH and esterase were found to be changed, which were showed by starch gel electrophoresis. It means these isozymes can be used as markers for studying somatic embryogenesis and differentiation.
