Experiments were conducted to study the effect of auxins and cultural factors on rooting characteristics in offshoots cutting of Aloe vera. The result obtained were as follows;1. Short offshoots(15-20cm) with rhizome had more roots than that of the removed rhizome, while long offshoots(25-30cm) without rhizome had more roots and heavier root dry weight than short offshoots with rhizome. The highest rooting ability occured when IBA treated 500mg per liter in short offshoots with rhizome, whereas long offshoots without rhizome showed higher rooting ability at the level of 1,000mg/l of IBA and 200mg/I of NAA2. Among three kinds of anxin treated, both IBA and NAA showed better rooting ability than ethychlozate. Root number, root length and root dry weight were higher at 10 min. dipping treatment of IBA 500mg/I for short off-shoots without rhizome and 10 min. dipping treatment of IBA 1,000mg/l for long offshoots with rhizome. Rooting ability of long offshoots was higher than that of short offshoots.3. In addition to IBA 1,000mg/l, 7-day dryness under shading condition increased root number and dry weight of root in offshoots without rhizome. Control treatment lengthened root by increasing drying period under the shading condition.4. The plain soil with mamure had not only higher root dofferentiation but higher root growth of offshoots cutting than the artificial soil.5. Rooting ability in offshoots cutting had a tendency increasing with decrease in shading percentage to natural. Black color poly ethylene film mulching had better rooting ablility than transparency poly ethlene film mulching in offshoots cutting.

Six soil compositions with three seeding rates were evaluated for influence on germination, coverage, height and sod development of Phragmites japonica. 1. Germination was high on peat, vermiculite and bark as compared with on peatmoss and sandy loam. 2. Covering rate was high within 2 months when seeded at 9g/$m^2$, but became same within 3 months afterwards when seeded at 3,6 and 9g/$m^2$, respectively. 3. Sod was highly developed on peat and bark treatments whereas Sandy loam, peatmoss and vermiculite treatments didn't develop sod. 4. Sod grown on bark weighed light and, therefore, was suggested best from a dealing cost point of view. 5. Cutting at 10 cm height didn't influence on sod development regardless of soil compositions.

Thuja koraiensis Nak. is a short and creeping evergreen shrub which reaches about 3 m in height and only occurs in the northeast China and in high mountains over the Korea. It's designated as a rare and endangered tree species in Korea and DD (data deficient) in Red List Category & Criteria of IUCN. This study was carried out to develop the propagation technique by cutting for conservation of genetic resources of T. koraiensis. The rooting responses of branch cuttings, obtained from hard (May) and semi-hard wood shots (August) to three plant growth regulators (PGRs), namely, IAA, IBA, and NAA applied at various concentrations (0, 100, 500, 1000, 2000, and 3000 mg/l) were examined in sand and mixed soil media. Percentage of rooting showed significant difference between cutting time, among kinds and among concentration of PGRs. The optimum cutting time was April to May in hardwood cutting. The application of IAA 1000 mg/l and NAA 500mg/l were effective in callus formation and rooting of cutting. Relatively, rooting of cutting of the control taken in May was above 93%.

This is a study on a landscape planning along the street 1~4, which are gateways to Taegu city and an important scenery. Therefore, emphasis was given to provide a bright, clean and beautiful first impression to visitors and citizens. The area is being developed for education and athletic park. Plans to construct a fountain, pergolas and a pond were set up to complement the active and passive facilities to the existing a athletic facilities in the area. Since D part in the area have alkali soil (pH 8.1), soil amendment is necessary for successful growth of trees and ground covers. When the area is filled or added with new soil for soil amendment, it will be important to use fresh soil which can support plant growth. It will be ideal to use ground covers and shrubs on the existing retaining walls along the street for keeping natural vegetation and slope stability instead of further cutting and reconstruction. It is not reasonable in technical and economic sense to remove rocks of the slope for planting trees. In order to harmonize plant color distribute, tall needle and broad leaf trees in the background as a screen, flowering trees were arranged in groups at front, and annuals were mass-planted along the footway. Natural-form-trees will be planted because they not only serve as a greenbelt but also are more economics in maintenance than formative trees.

In search of a method to achieve sustainable agricultural practices, a trickling filter was employed for the piggery wastewater treatment, where rice straw was the support medium in place of more commonly used materials. The filtrate from the trickling filter were applied to a soil, on which orchard grass (Dactylic glomerata L.) was grown followed by amendment of the treated straw medium. Orchard grass was cut twice, and growth parameters and yields were measured. Soil chemical properties before and after harvesting orchard grass were analyzed. Development of the forage crop was greatly enhanced by the application of the filtrate in terms of fresh weight, dry weight, and the absorption of nutrients. Better growth and higher nutrient uptake were found in the second cutting of the orchard grass. Organic matter content, ionic intensity, exchangeable cations, and phosphate of the soil increased with the application of the filtrate. The relative high concentrations of salts in the piggery trickling filtrate, expressed in electrical conductivity and content of sodium, exerted no detrimental effect on the crop and soil.

Kochang (Chollabuk-Do) located in the west-southern area of the Korea and passed by the West Coast Highway has yellow collar soil(Hwang-To) pertaining primarily clay. Hwang-To serve as a great soil for growing watermelon and yam but are not strong enough to be used as subgrade material for constructing roads. Subgrade material of the study site was not qualified for standard of material quality. Properties of subgrade layers showed that strength of subgrade material is not strong enough to sustain the subgrade strength in constructing roads since No. 200 passing ration is 25 - 82 ％ and ground water level is nearly equal to subgrade level. The objective of this study is to present the methods obtaining proper subgrade strength of cutting area to construct secure and solid highways in the fragile area.

To investigate the plants invasion process and dominant species in large-scale cutting slopes, slopes elapsed one year to thirteen years after construction had been selected in five counties. The obtained results are summarized as follows : The species of high appearance frequency were Alnus firma, Arundinella hirta, Miscanthus sinensi var. purpurascens, Erigeron cancdensis, Artemisia princeps var. orientalis, Oenothera odorata, Lactuca raddeana, Lactrca indica var. laciniata, Lespedeza bicolor, Youngia sonchifolia, Populus albaglandulosa, and so on. The biological type of identified vascular plants was $Ch-D_1-R_{5-e}$. In time, plant coverage was increased gradually and average of plant coverage was 1.17% in slopes which elapsed one year, 42.44% after six years, 56.67% after eight years, and 69.17% after ten years. The dominant species in the surveyed slopes were covered with Alnus firma, Artemisia princeps var. orientalis, Erigeron cancdensis, Miscanthus sinensi var. purpurascens, Arundinella hirta, Lactuca raddeana, Oenothera odorata, Boehmeria spicata, Kummerowia striata and Artemisia montana of the 59 species. The conditions of location in large-scale cutting slopes are hard to fix and germinate of seeds, and extend plant roots in the slope soil. Hence, the highly appearance species and dominance species of the area will make plant coverage quick and slope stable.
