In order to establish micropropagation system Anthurium andreanum 'Atlanta', dwarf type, shoots of A. andreanum were cultured on medium supplemented with cytokinin. Callus was formed from the base of shoots. high frequency callus induction was obtained on medium with 10.0mg/L BA or 10.0mg/L TDZ(thidiazuron) at more than 71.8%. The shoots were cultured on media with various combinations and concentrations of TDZ, BA and 2.4-D to enhance callus induction. Callus was induced at more than 72.6% and grew vigorously on media containing 10.0mg/L BA and 0.0∼0.5mg/L 2.4-D, or 1.0mg/L TDZ. Stimulation effects of cytokinin by 2.4-D did not occur in combined treatments of cytokinin and 2.4-D. Callus was cut into sections(7${\times}$10mm), and then cultured on media with BA alone or BA and 2.4-D to regenerate shoots and to stimulate the callus growth. Shoot regeneration and callus growth were effective on media with 10.0mg/L BA alone, or 10.0mg/L BA and 0.1mg/L 2.4-D. In combined treatments of BA and 2.4-D, stmulation effects of cytocinin by 2.4-D also did not occur. Callus growth was decreased, accordiong to increasing the concentration of 2.4-D. In cimbined treatments of TDZ and 2.4-D in shoot regeneration and callus proliferation, stimulated effects of cytokinin by 2.4-D did not occur entirely. Media with 0.5∼1.0mg/L TDZ ingibited the regeneration and rooting of shoots, and callus growth from callus sections. Addition of 2.4-D on medium with TDZ ingibited the regeneration and rooting of shoots, and callus growth. Rooted plantdts were acclimatized in greenhouse. The plantlets were survived more than 98% in soil of vermiculite alone or mixed perlite 1 and vermiculite 1.

This study was carried out to establish The regeneration of healthy seedlings from the nodal segment culture of Chinese yam (Dioscorea opposita cv. Danma), cultivated in Korea. Different explants such as leaves, petioles, roots and nodal pieces, excised from the in vitro grown seedlings of Chinese yam, were cultured on MS medium supplemented with various combinations of growth regulators. All the growth regulators used induced plantlet regeneration from the nodal segments at a high frequency, while there was no induction of shoot or callus from leaf, petiole or root tissues. The medium supplemented with 0.01mg/L NAA, 0.5mg/L BA, 0.5-1.0mg/L kinetin and without plant growth regulator was effective for shoot development of buds from the nodal segment culture. The concentration of BA and NAA was an important factor in the bud induction of buds from the nodal segments of Chinese yam. Nodal segments cultured on the medium containing 1.0mg/L NAA and 0.5-1.0mg/L BA gave the best response to bud formation. The addition of GA$_3$ to the culture medium suppressed shoot induction and growth, while it increased microtuber formation. The shoot growth and microtuber formation were also affected by medium strength and solidity. The MS basal medium containing 1 g/L gelrite was suitable for microtuber formation from the nodal segment of Chinese yam.

Various plant growth regulators were tested for shoot proliferation of Tripterospermum japonicum, a rare and endangered species. Among the six different media tested, MS medium was the best for the shoot growth. Whereas BA, upto 3 mg/L, significantly increased shoot proliferation rate, it suppressed the rate at higher levels. Neither kinetin nor TDZ was so effective in proliferating shoots as BA. As for rooting, TDZ strongly inhibited it even at very low concentration though spontaneous rooting was frequently observed from the proliferated shoots during culture of lower concentration BA or kinetin. In contrast, shoot elongation was significantly promoted by $GA_3$. More than 90% of the proliferated plantlets could be transplanted via cuttings into pots containing artificial soil mixture where they rooted and resumed normal growth. Most of the plants bloomed to bear fruits in the following year.

Effects of plant growth regulators and anti-oxidants for rapid multiplication of Cymbidium kanran were investigated. The best gelling agent was 2.5 g/1 gelrite which needed less quantity (about 28%) and half price than 9 g/1 chemi-cal agar. Undefined edible agar was only a little bit worse than chemical agar in growth, but the price was half as much as the latter. The higher concentration of BA and NAA, the deeper browning of medium that prevented from performing its functions of plant growth regulators. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (M.W. 40,000) was the most effective anti-oxidant other than ascorbic acid, aspartic acid, and rutin in protecting the browning of medium, enhancing the effect of plant growth regulators, and thus prolonging the subculture cycle. Vigorous seedlings were obtained by 0.1∼1.0 mg/1 BA,0.1 mg/1 NAA and 1 g/1 polyvinylpyrrolidone treatments. Therefore, the best result for growth and econo-mic aspects in rhizome culture of Cymbidium kanran were obtained by using MS basal medium with 2.5 g/1 gelrite, 1 g/1 polyvinylpyrrolidone, 0.1∼1.0 mg/1 BA and 0.1 mg/1 NAA.

복주머니난(Cypripedium)속 식물은 우리나라에 광릉요강꽃을 비롯하여 털복주머니난, 흰털복주머니란, 복주머니란, 노랑복주머니란등 5종이 분포하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 광릉요강꽃과 털복주머니란 두 종은 환경부에서 지정한 멸종위기 식물 1급과 2급에 지정되어 보호를 받고 있고 나머지 3종은 제도적으로도 보호를 받지 못하는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 충분히 성숙한 털복주머니난과 복주머니난의 종자에 NaOCl처리를 하여 발아율을 향상시킬수 있었는데 이러한 전처리가 발아에 미치는 원인에 대한 연구를 실시하였다. 털복주머니란의 무균적인 종자발아는 1.0% NaOCl 처리구에서 70% 이상의 종자발아율을 보였으며, POM배지가 MS배지보다 신초분화가 양호했다. GA3와 활성탄(Activated charcoal)의 혼합첨가는 신초증식에 효과적이었다. 신초분화 후 저온처리는 신초의 증식 율을 증가시켰다. 한편 NaOCl 농도(0, 1, 3, 5, 10%)와 NaOCl 처리시간(0, 5, 15, 30, 45, 60분)에 따라서 복주머니란의 종자발아를 확인한 결과, NaOCl 1%를 30분간 처리하였을 때 가장 높은 발아율을 나타냈다. NaOCl을 처리하여 종자의 종피상태를 SEM과 TEM으로 관찰한 결과 NaOCl의 처리는 종피 세포벽의 부분적 해리 및 작은 구멍을 만들게 하였는데 이러한 종피의 물리화학적 변화가 물과 양분의 이동을 원활히 하여 종자의 발아를 촉진하는 것으로 사료된다. 복주머니난의 신초분화에 미치는 casein과 활성탄의 효과를 알아본 결과 casein 200 mg/L와 활성탄 200 mg/L를 혼합 첨가한 실험구에서 가장 높은 신초분화율을 보였다. 토양순화 후 생존률은 극히 저조했으며 30 개체중에 5 개체만이 다음해 어린동아를 싹틔우는 것을 확인 하였다. 본 결과들을 종합하여 보면 멸종위기식물, 특히 털복주머니란과 복주머니란의 조직배양을 통해서 서식지외 보존방안(기내증식)에 관해 가능성을 제시하였다고 생각되어 진다.

Shoot tip explants from germinated seeds of Alnus hirsuta were cultured on NT (Nagata and Takebe, 1971) mineral salts medium supplemented with 6% glucose, MS (Murashige and Skoog, 1962) vitamin mixture, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and $0-50\;\mu\textrm{M}$ 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). Five $\mu\textrm{M}$ BAP was found to give the highest shoot multiplication rate. Accordingly about 200 shoots were obtained for further experiments by multiplying shoots on this medium for 4-5 months. Regardless of carbon sources, NT mineral medium produced 3-12 times of shoots than MS mineral medium did. On NT mineral medium, 3% sucrose, 3% glucose and 6% glucose yielded no significant differences. It was observed that media consisting of 1/4-1/2 strength NT mineral salts, 3% sucrose and $1-8\;\mu\textrm{M}$ IBA produced about 100% rooting rate. Almost 100% of the resulting plantlets survived after transfer to the soil by decreasing humidity stepwise.epwise.

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the tolerance of micropropagated and mycorrhized alpinia plants to the parasite Meloidogyne arenaria. The experimental design was completely randomized with a factorial arrangement of four inoculation treatments with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) (Gigaspora albida, Claroideoglomus etunicatum, Acaulospora longula, and a non-inoculated control) in the presence or absence of M. arenaria with five replicates. The following characteristics were evaluated after 270 days of mycorrhization and 170 days of M. arenaria inoculation: height, number of leaves and tillers, fresh mass of aerial and subterranean parts, dry mass of aerial parts, foliar area, nutritional content, mycorrhizal colonization, AMF sporulation, and the number of galls, egg masses, and eggs. The results indicated a significant interaction between the treatments for AMF spore density, total mycorrhizal colonization, and nutrient content (Zn, Na, and N), while the remaining parameters were influenced by either AMF or nematodes. Plants inoculated with A. longula or C. etunicatum exhibited greater growth than the control. Lower N content was observed in plants inoculated with AMF, while Zn and Na were found in larger quantities in plants inoculated with C. etunicatum. Fewer galls were observed on mycorrhized plants, and egg mass production and the number of eggs were lower in plants inoculated with G. albida. Plants inoculated with A. longula showed a higher percentage of total mycorrhizal colonization in the presence of the nematode. Therefore, the association of micropropagated alpinia plants and A. longula enhanced tolerance to parasitism by M. arenaria.

Japanese pepper (Zanthoxylum piperitum Dc.) tree of selected genotype was propagated by a two-step method. Among the media tested, BTM promoted shoot height growth and DKW revealed as superior to micro-canopy increment Multiple shoot formation was greatest when the single shoot were subcultured on medium containing 0.89 $\mu$M BA alone. The numbers of survival shoots could be markedly increased by acclimatization of the multiplied shoots itself in plastic Petridish (punctured with pin on the top) for two weeks and subsequently transplanting each shoot onto peat plug system. After transplanting the micropropagules onto pots, prickliness characteristics seem to be transmitted to all plane produced from selected genotype.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of a light-emitting diode (LED) on in vitro shoot growth and rooting in teak (Tectona grandis L.). In the experiments with apical bud explants, the greatest shoot elongation (3.2 cm) occurred when they were cultured on DKW medium under 50% blue and 50% red LED mixture (BR), whereas no differences in growth were observed in different light sources (florescent light [F] or BR) or media (MS or DKW). The highest number of shoot multiplication (2.4/explant) or elongation (4.94 cm) was achieved with 0.5 or 1.0 mg/L 6-Benzyladenine (BA) treatment under BR. In addition, the best rooting rate (93.8%) or root length (1.3 cm) was recorded with 0.5 mg/L indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) treatment under BR, and the highest root induction (3.1/explant) was observed in 0.2 mg/L IBA under BR. The in vitro rooted plantlets were hardened and survived well on soil.

This study was undertaken to develop an efficient propagation technique for mature Betula davurica. Using aseptic materials taken from in vitro culture, the effects of media and plant growth regulators on shoot proliferation and rooting were investigated. DKW medium turned out to be the best in shoot proliferation among the media tested. Whereas axillary buds were better culture material than apical buds in proliferation of shoots, apical buds were slightly better than axillary buds on shoot elongation. Neither 1 /2 MS nor WPM medium seemed to be suitable for shoot multiplication or elongation. When the explants were cultured on 1/2 MS medium, shoot elongation was retarded by forming big callus at the base. In the case of WPM, shoots could be formed normally, but they exhibited slow growing. NAA was so effective on in vitro rooting that more than 80% rooting could be achieved on half-strength DKW medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/L NAA after 4 weeks in cultures. Ex vitro rooting using elongated shoot was also applicable to rooting and acclimatization. Rooted plantlets were successfully acclimatized in an artificial soil mixture and grew normally. The results demonstrate that efficient mass propagation of mature B. davurica can be done through tissue culture.
