Calli were successfully induced from immature embryos of Citrus junos SIEB. cultured on 1/2 MS medium supplemented with 40.4 BA. Plant were regenerated from immature embryo derived callus on MS medium with 5 $\mu$M BA. The calli were morphologically characterized by two types: one was whitish and the other was yellowish. After 16 weeks of culture, shoots and root were formed on calli. Plantlets were transplanted to soil and successfully grown to a whole plant Also, the arrangement of the cells showed many differences according to developmental stages of callus and organogenesis. The small cells were compact in callus cultured for 6 weeks and the extended cells which divided actively appeared in it after 8 weeks of culture. The globular protrusion of compacted cells occurred in callus after 10 weeks of culture, and the neighboring cells were liquefied. Oil sac surrounded by the liquefied cell was observed in the leaf and was formed by rupture of liquefied cells.

Single cells obtained from suspension culture of mature embryo-derived callus in wheat(Triticum aestivum L. cv Jang Kwang) were cultured to regenrated into the plantlet. Cell clusters and embryogenic calluses were efficiently developed from when the single cells clutured on the MS medium supplemented with 10${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ 2,4-D. Upon transfer to hormone-free MS medium containing 10 mg/I AgNO3, embryogenic calluses gave rise to shoots, probably through somatic embryogenesis.

It was determined optimal Culture conditions and suitable growth regulators for seed germination, growth of callus, and protoplasts derived from cultured and mesophyll cells in Gremastra appendiculata. Induction of fusion between protoplasts of cultured and mesophyll cells was examined. The best conditions of seed germination and growth of callus were achieved on Hyponex medium contained plant growth regulators(2mg/l 2, 4-D, lmg/l Kinetin). Viability and regeneration of cell wall in protoplasts was determined with fluorescence microscope. Also, fused protoplasts were achieved by using PEG solution between protoplasts of cultured and mesophyll cells.

To understand molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation of plant cells to saline stress and stress memory, we developed Arabidopsis callus suspension-cultured cells adapted to high salt. Adapted cells to high salt exhibited enhanced tolerance compared to control cells. Moreover, the salt tolerance of adapted cells was stably maintained even after the stress is relieved, indicating that the acquired salt tolerance of adapted cells was memorized. In order to characterize metabolic responses of plant cells during adaptation to high salt stress as well as stress memory, we compared metabolic profiles of salt-adapted and stress-memorized cells with control cells by using NMR spectroscopy. A principle component analysis showed clear metabolic discrimination among control, salt-adapted and stress-memorized cells. Compared with control cells, metabolites related to shikimate metabolism such as tyrosine, and flavonol glycosides, which are related to protective mechanism of plant against stresses were largely up-regulated in adapted cell lines. Moreover, coniferin, a precursor of lignin, was more abundant in salt-adapted cells than control cells. Cell morphology analysis using transmission electron microscopy indicated that cell wall thickness of salt-adapted cells was significantly induced compared to control cells. Consistently, salt adapted cells contained more lignin in their cell walls compared to control cells. The results provide new insight into mechanisms of plant adaptation to saline stress as well as stress memory in metabolic level.

Differential responses of red pepper plant and cultured cells to enhanced ${\gamma}$-ray($^{60}$ Co) and ultraviolet(UV) stress were investigated. In seed treatment, 1 Gy of ${\gamma}$-ray increased seedling dry weight up to 19.1%, but 50 Gy treatment markedly ingibited seed germination and subsequent growth of seedling. UV treatment to seed did not change the germination ability of seeds and the growth of seedlings regardless of duration of UV treatment until 24 hrs. In case of UV treatment to seedlings, plant injury was seriously progressed even after the seedlings were returned to no UV condition, and eventually all the leaves showed chlorosis by the stress. However, progress of plant injury by ${\gamma}$-ray stress slower than that caused by UV stress, and even at the high dose of ${\gamma}$-ray 50 Gy, did not caused the cholrosis of stressed plant leaf. Amount of electrolytes leakage from plant leaf by UV treatment for 24hrs was increased up to 28.8 folds in comparison with untreated control, whereas that of 50 Gy of ${\gamma}$-ray was increased only 1.2 folds. UV stress induced the production of capsidiol, antimicrobial phytoalexin, by activation of gene expression involved in capsidiol biosynthesis, such as sesquiterpene cyclase and cyclase and cytochrome P450 hydroxylase in the leaf and cultured cell, but ${\gamma}$-ray stress induced neither the production of capsidiol nor expression of the genes.

The effect of Ca2+ and polyamines on the activity $\beta$-glucan synthetase II(GSII) related to cell wall synthesis was studied in carrot suspension cultured cells. The activity of GS II is four times higher than that of $\beta$-glucan synthetase I in carrot suspension cultured cells and in vitro expreiment, the activity of GSII was increased in response to increase in concentration of Ca2+ and polyamines. When carrot suspension cultured cells were incubated together with Ca2+ and polyamines, the GSII activity was high at 0.1mM of Ca2+ and 1mM of putrescine. Also, polycationic poly-L-lysine and poly-L-ornithine increased about 50% the GSII activity than that of the control, respectively. These results may imply that Ca2+ and polyamines were related to the enzyme activity as a polycationic nature. In addition, verapamil as the calcium channel blocker and flunarizine as an antagonist of calcium mechanism in cytoplasm decreased GSII activity ramarkably, Ca2+ and calmodulin stimulated GSII activity as Ca2+ of free ion rather than Ca2+ calmodulin complex. The effect of 2,4-D on the GSII activity in culture medium is shown to be low at 0.1mg per liter and GSII activity increased about 30% more than that of the 0.1mg/l at the range of 0.3-1.0mg per litere. Cummulative results suggest that Ca2+ and polyfamines stimulate the cell wall synthesis by means of the enhancement of GSII activity responsible for synthesizing the cell wall components.

This study was carried out to improve the ability of embryo formation and the efficiency of plant regeneration from suspension cultured cells of seed derived calli of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.). The frequency of formation of round cell and cell colonies was highest at 50 days after suspension culture in $N_6$ medium supplemented with $4\;g/{\ell}$ casein hydrolysate (CH), $20\;g/{\ell}$ sucrose and $30\;g/{\ell}$ sorbitol. The highest frequency of plant regeneration and somatic embryo formation was obtained from suspension cultured cells of 60 days. Addition of CH ($4\;g/{\ell}$) in suspension culture medium gave the highest frequency of embryo formation (39.6%) and plant regeneration (73.0%).

Kalopanax pictus was cultured in vitro to find out optimal condition for embryogenic cells proliferation in liquid media rapidly. Embryogenic cells were induced from leaves and petiols of Kalopanax pictus. Optimum culture medium appeared to be a 1/2MS medium supplemented with 2.0mg/L 2,4-D and 0.1mg/L BA. To find out optimal conditions, embryogenic cells were cultured some condition as different concentrations of 2,4-D, medium and sucrose. There was cultured on 1/2MS liquid medium containing different concentration of 2,4-D. When embryogenic cells were cultured on 1/2MS liquid medium supplemented with 1.0mg/L 2,4-D, cell propagation rate was higher than other concentration of 2,4-D. When embryogenic cells were cultured on different media that MS, Gambols B5, N6, White, SH medium, observed the highest multiplication rate among Gambols B5 and White medium. To find out of effect of sucrose to embryogenic cells propagation, we tested cells under different concentrations. Optimal concentration of sucrose appeared to be a basal medium added 3% sucrose. Above results suggest that optimal conditions for proliferation of embryogenic cells were established Gambols B5 and White medium added 1.0mg/L 2,4-D and 3% sucrose. There is every possibility achieving embryogenic cells proliferation via bioreactor culture system in Kalopanax pictus.

Cultured Cupressus lusitanica cells induced by various stresses are thought to produce different complexes of defense chemicals to optimize defense. To compare the induced products of two stimulations, we investigated the emission of monoterpenes, biosynthesis of ${\beta}-thujaplicin$, and accumulation of lignin in mechanically stressed and fungal elicited cultured C. lusitanica cells. Both mechanical stress and fungal elicitor caused emission of qualitatively similar monoterpene blends indicating de novo biosynthesis of these compounds after stimulation, while mechanical stress alone is sufficient to induce fungal elicitor-related monoterpene emission. Sabinene and limonene were the dominant compounds over the time course in both volatile blends. Although the emitted volatile blends were qualitatively similar, the time course and the relative ratios of the constituents of the volatile blends differed with the type of stimulation. While fungal elicited cells produced significant amounts of ${\beta}-thujaplicin$ over the 5-day time course, no ${\beta}-thujaplicin$ was observed in the mechanically stressed cells. The production of ${\beta}-thujaplicin$ was the main dissimilarity of the induced products of these two treatments, suggesting that synthesis of ${\beta}-thujaplicin$ is not a general response to all types of stresses, but is a specific response and serves as a strong toxic compound against already invaded fungus. Significantly higher amounts of lignin accumulations were observed in the fungal elicited and mechanically stressed cells on the 5th day after induction. Based on these results, we suggest the composition of induced products was dependent on the method of stimulation.
