The inhibitory effect of Inula sesquiterpene lactones on the growth of Phaseolus vulgaris was tested and the abnormality of the stem organization caused by the lactones was also examined. The longitudinal growth of the young stem and the expansion of the young leaf were stopped by the application of the lactones. However, this inhibitory effect was appeared and strictly restricted within the treated area. So the young shoot was observed for possible bending as a result of the unilateral application of the lactones. When the application of the lactones into the medium, the growth of the plant was entirely repressed. However, the growth of shoot and re-initiation of root were started after the plant was transfered to the lactone free medium. And partial reversal of inhibition of the stem growth was achieved by the additions of gibberelline and the lactones.

본 연구는 느티나무 산지의 개엽 시기에 영향을 미치는 기후인자를 구명하기 위해 수행되었다. 이를 위해 2009년 국립산림과학원에서 조성한 강릉, 임실, 화성, 진주의 4개 산지시험림을 대상으로 개엽 시기를 조사하였다. 개엽시기 조사는 4~5월에 걸쳐 이루어졌으며 휴면 중이던 동아가 부풀어 오르면서 초록색이 처음 보이는 때를 개엽 개시일로 하였으며, 동아에서 잎이 나와 완전히 신장하여 펴진 시점을 개엽 완료일로 하였다. 분산분석을 실시한 결과, 개엽 개시일과 개엽 완료일 모두 조림지 간, 산지 간 그리고 조림지와 산지 간 상호작용에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 인정되었다. 개엽 시기에 영향을 미치는 조림지의 기후인자를 구명하기 위해 상관분석을 실시한 결과, 3~10월의 평균기온 또는 최고기온이 높고, 3~10월 또는 6~10월의 평균습도가 낮은 조림지에서 개엽이 빨리 이루어지는 것으로 나타났다. 조림지와 산지 간 기후인자의 차이가 개엽 시기에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 기후인자에 대한 생태적 거리(=조림지-산지)를 구하여 공준상관 분석을 실시한 결과, 3~10월 최고기온, 연평균 최고기온, 3~10월 평균기온, 7~8월 최고기온, 6~10월 평균습도의 차이가 주요 인자로 나타났다. 결론적으로 느티나무는 조림지 보다 생육기의 평균 기온이 낮은 곳에서 온 산지가 개엽이 빨리 시작되는 경향으로 전형적인 북-남 또는 저온-고온 경사변이를 나타내느티나무 산지에 따른 지리적 변이가 존재함을 확인할 수 있었다. 마지막으로 이러한 연구결과를 느티나무 육종에 활용하기 위한 방안에 대해 고찰하였다.

Background: Wild ginseng, Panax ginseng Meyer, is an endangered species of medicinal plants. In the present study, we analyzed variations within the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) cluster to gain insight into the genetic diversity of the Oriental ginseng, P. ginseng, at artificial plant cultivation. Methods: The roots of wild P. ginseng plants were sampled from a nonprotected natural population of the Russian Far East. The slides were prepared from leaf tissues using the squash technique for cytogenetic analysis. The 18S rDNA sequences were cloned and sequenced. The distribution of nucleotide diversity, recombination events, and interspecific phylogenies for the total 18S rDNA sequence data set was also examined. Results: In mesophyll cells, mononucleolar nuclei were estimated to be dominant (75.7%), while the remaining nuclei contained two to four nucleoli. Among the analyzed 18S rDNA clones, 20% were identical to the 18S rDNA sequence of P. ginseng from Japan, and other clones differed in one to six substitutions. The nucleotide polymorphism was more expressed at the positions 440-640 bp, and distributed in variable regions, expansion segments, and conservative elements of core structure. The phylogenetic analysis confirmed conspecificity of ginseng plants cultivated in different regions, with two fixed mutations between P. ginseng and other species. Conclusion: This study identified the evidences of the intragenomic nucleotide polymorphism in the 18S rDNA sequences of P. ginseng. These data suggest that, in cultivated plants, the observed genome instability may influence the synthesis of biologically active compounds, which are widely used in traditional medicine.

본 실험의 목적은 생물반응기를 이용한 현삼 종묘의 기내증식과 기내순화에 관여하는 적정 배지조건을 검토하여 추후 종묘의 건전한 생육과 안정적 생산에 활용할 수 있는 기초자료를 얻고자 하였으며 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 생물반응기에서 4주간 배양한 신초의 발근과 생장은 1X MS 액체배지에서 양호하였으나 6주간 배양한 신초는 1/10 MS 배지에서 좋았다 2. MS 고체배지에서의 잎 전개율은 생물반응기에서 6주간 배양한 신초가 4주간 배양한 신초보다 높았다. 3. 잎이 전개된 신초의 수와 신초당 잎의 수는 1X MS 고체배지에서 많았으나 유리화도 1/2X MS 고체 배지에서 보다 많이 발생하였다. 4. 전반적으로 보아 신초의 지상부 생육은 MS 기본배지에서 양호하였으나 지하부 생육은 암모니아 태 질소를 1/4로 줄인 배지에서 좋았다. 5. 암모니아태 질소를 1/4로 줄이고 아가농도를 1.2%로 조정한 배지에서 신초의 생육이 좋았으나 유리화가 많이 발생하였다. 6. 신초의 생육과 순화는 1X MS배지에 1.6% 아가농도가 좋았으나 1/2X MS에 1.2%의 아가를 첨가한 경우보다 유리화가 많이 나타났기 때문에 신초의 순화는 1/2 MS 기본배지에 아가농도를 1.2%로 한 배지가 가장 적합한 것으로 생각되었다.

Yield and growth characteristics were compared for five rice cultivars; a new Tongil-type, so called "super-rice", Dasanbyeo, an old Tongil-type Milyang 23, two japonicas Dongjinbyeo and Ilpumbyeo, and a new plant type (NPT)line IR65600-27-1-2. The objective of this stusy was to clarify the high yielding capacity of Dasanbyeo in terms of growth characteristics. The average grain yield (9 t/ha) of Dasanbyeo was higher than that of Milyang 23 by ca. 9% that of japonicas by 20 to 30%, and that of NPT line by ca. 100%. The higher grain yield of Dasanbyeo was attributable not only to the greater dry matter production but also to the higher harvest index (HI). Dasanbyeo showed the greatest dry matter at harvest owing not only to the rapid leaf expan-sion at early growth stage and the resulting high LAI through the entire growth stage but also to the high NAR despite the high LAI. The rapid leaf expansion of Dasanbyeo at early growth stage seemed to be related in part to the profuse tillering capacity. HI was 0.53 in Dasanbyeo, 0,51 in Milyang 23, 0.41 in japonicas, and 0.35 in NPT line. Dasanbyeo was indebted for its higher HI to the relatively high grain filling ratio in spite of a much greater sink size than the other cultivars. Dasan had a greater source to sink ratio during grain ripening as measured by LAD/spikelet and dry matter production/spikelet which showed positove correlations with the grain ripening ratio. New plant type (NPT) line showed the lowest grain yield owing to the small sink size and the low grain filling ratio which seemed to have resulted from the abundant occurrence of weak-strength spikelets. The weak sink strength, in turn, seemed to have suppressed photosynthesis during the grain ripening stage.

CDC48 is a member of the AAA ATPase superfamily. Yeast CDC48 and its mammalian homolog p97 are implicated in diverse cellular processes, including mitosis, membrane fusion, and ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation. However, the cellular functions of plant CDC48 proteins are largely unknown. In the present study, we performed virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) screening and found that silencing of a gene encoding a tobacco CDC48 homolog, NgCDC48, resulted in severe abnormalities in leaf and shoot development in tobacco. Furthermore, transgenic tobacco plants (35S:anti-NgCDC48), in which the NgCDC48 gene was suppressed using the antisense RNA method, exhibited severely aberrant development of both vegetative and reproductive organs, resulting in arrested shoot and leaf growth and sterile flowers. Approximately 57-83% of 35S:anti-NgCDC48 plants failed to develop mature organs and died at early stage of development. Scanning electron microscopy showed that both adaxial and abaxial epidermal pavement cells in antisense transgenic leaves were significantly smaller and more numerous than those in wild type leaves. These results indicate that NgCDC48 is critically involved in cell growth and development of tobacco plants. An in vivo targeting experiment revealed that NgCDC48 resides in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in tobacco protoplasts. We consider the tantalizing possibility that CDC48-mediated degradation of an as-yet unidentified protein(s) in the ER might be a critical step for cell growth and expansion in tobacco leaves.

In the Northeast of Brazil, expansion of guava crops has been impaired by Meloidogyne enterolobii that causes root galls, leaf fall and plant death. Considering the fact that arbuscular mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) improve plant growth giving protection against damages by plant pathogens, this work was carried out to select AMF efficient to increase production of guava seedlings and their tolerance to M. enterolobii. Seedlings of guava were inoculated with 200 spores of Gigaspora albida, Glomus etunicatum or Acaulospora longula and 55 days later with 4,000 eggs of M. enterolobii. The interactions between the AMF and M. enterolobii were assessed by measuring leaf number, aerial dry biomass, $CO_2$ evolution and arbuscular and total mycorrhizal colonization. In general, plant growth was improved by the treatments with A. longula or with G. albida. The presence of the nematode decreased arbuscular colonization and increased general enzymatic activity. Higher dehydrogenase activity occurred with the A. longula treatment and $CO_2$ evolution was higher in the control with the nematode. More spores and higher production of glomalin-related soil proteins were observed in the treatment with G. albida. The numbers of galls, egg masses and eggs were reduced in the presence of A. longula. Inoculation with this fungus benefitted plant growth and decreased nematode reproduction.

Ramie (Boehmeria nivea M.) has been used for fiber materials in Korea traditionally, but in recent years, the concern with ramie leaves for the food industry such as tteok (a kind of Korean rice cake) industry has been increasing, so a study for eatable ramie is required for the expansion of ramie consumption. Moreover, the ramie varieties for the food industry are not established, so the natural species are cultivated in general; therefore, it is very important to select the ramie varieties for the food industry such as rice cakes, tea, beverage and so on. This study was undertaken to compare the physiochemical properties among 9 ramie lines selected in the Yeonggwang-gun Agricultural Technology Center to select the eatable ramie varieties for the food industry. The contents of the protein among 9 ramie lines was 6.21~7.56% and had the highest content in the YG55. The folic acid (folate) and vitamin C content had varying differences among the 9 lines; the content of folate showed $771.52{\sim}1,978.84{\mu}g%$, that of vitamin C showed 149.42~275.34 mg%. The ACE inhibitory activity appeared to be the highest in YG88 (21.5%) among the 9 ramie varieties tested.
