This experiment was carried out to establish micropropagation system in Fritillaria thunbergii Miq. Through the culture of bulblet scales, stems, node-buds and shoot tips with special reference to the effect of physiological age of explant and plant growth regulators on bulblet formation. Number of formed bulblets was significantly increased in node-bud or stem tissue compared to scals segments and on the medium supplemented with kinetin than BA containing medium. Optimum levels of kinetin for bulblet formation from node-bud taken from above 3 cm shoot length and stem segments excised from below 3 cm shoot length were 5.0 mg /L and $1.0{\sim}3.0\;mg$ /L kinetin, respectively. Interesting phenomenon was observed, the direct formation of bulblets from the axilliary bud of cultured explants. Bulblet forming capacity in stem tissue was depended on stem age, young stem had high regeneration ability compared to old stem taken from above 10 cm shoot length. 1.0 mg /L kinetin was optimum concentration for the formation of bulblets from old stem segments. Stem tissue taken from underground growing plant was promoted coampare to shoot tips or bulb scale segments. Optimum concentration of sucrose was $5{\sim}7%$. Summariged above results revealed that effective explant for micropropagation was stem and /or node-bud tissue excised from less than 3 cm plant height compared to those of bulb scale segments which showed high contamination after culture. Maximum multiplication rate of young stem and /or node-bud segment was about 20 times. Kinetin requirement for stimulation of bulblet formation from cultured explant depended on source of explants but favorable levels of kinetin for organogenesis ranged from 1.0 mg /L to 5.0 mg /L.

The effect of plant growth regulators on proliferation of shoot from stem node culture of Japanese yew (Taxus cuspidata Sieb. et Zucc.) was studied using Quoirin and Lepoivre (1977) medium. Among the cytokinin tested, BAP, kinetin, and thidiazuron at various concentrations had no effect on shoot multiplication However when zeatin at 5$\times$10$^{-5}$ M was added to the medium, an average of 6 shoots were regenerated per explant after 8 weeks of culture. The ratio of rooting ex vitro was remarkably increased up to 34% by dipping the basal end in 0.5 to 1.0% IBA on talc compared with 3% in vitro rooting. Rooted plantlets were acclimated in greenhouse conditions for one month and successfully transplanted to the field.

This experiment was carried out to establish the system of mass propagation through tissue culture using sucker and stem in Ramie. The sterilization for tissue culture of Ramie was the better treatment of 2% NaClO for 20 minute into ultrasonic cleaner than the others, and so rate of contamination was 3.3%, and it was able to produce 96% healthy plant. The effect of growth regulator was superior to mixed treatment of 0.02mg/$\ell$ NAA, 1.5mg/$\ell$ BA, 0.lmgmg/$\ell$ GA$_3$, which it was not formed callus and but produced 96% healthy plant. The effect of propagation was higher in culturing of the stem node than the sucker in cultural part, local variety than improved ones. The effect of acclimatization was superior to pretreatment of 30 minute after soaking in 100ppm NAA, transplanting on bed soil which mixed to ratio of vermiculite : soil : sand =1 : 2 : 1, the transplanted plants were grown all normal.

Potato (Solamum tuberosum 'Dejima') plantlets were investigated on culture type and initial quantity of inoculation in bioreactor and survival rate by hydroponics for mass production. rode stems (1 to 1.5cm in length) of potato plantlets multiplied in vitro were grown for 3 weeks in liquid Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium with sucrose $30 g\; L^{-1}$. When plantlets (80-node inoculation) were raised in 10L balloon type bubble (BB) bioreactor, the healthiest growth of plantlets was obtained from explants cultured in ebb & flow culture with medium supplied periodically 12 times per day. The suitable inoculation quantity of 20L BB bioreactor was 120 pieces of stem segments (mean 2.2g fresh weight) in ebb & flow culture. Number of nodal shoot was eight on the average. In controlled culture room, survival rate of plantlets at 7 days after stem cutting was above $70\%$ when they were acclimatized by hydroponics grown in deep flow and solid medium culture. The highest survival rate of the stem cutting plantlets was in nutrient solution adjusted to EC $1.4dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. Stem cutting plantlets through one culture could be obtained $670\~900$, when plantlets were grown in ebb & flow culture during 3 weeks using a 20L bioreactor with initial 120 pieces of nodal segments. 11 is possible In do mass production of seedlings cultured in bioreactor and hydroponics.

Physiologically modified stem nodes derived from ex vitro and in vivo explants of hybrid aspen (Populus alba L.X P.grandidentata Michx. 'Crandon') were tested for their multiple shoot regeneration capacity using a broad spectrum dosage of cytokinins. Ex vitro derived stem nodes with excised axillary buds at the time of culture produced 11 to 13 multiple shoots on 20 to 30 $\mu$M zeatin containing Woody Plant Medium (WPM) after 6 weeks. Excision of axillary bud sprouts after 2 weeks of culture and culture of the remaining stem nodes on WPM with 1.0 to 2.0 $\mu$M BA or 10 to 30 $\mu$M zeatin produced 13 to 15 and 7 to 8 shoots per explant, respectively, Multiple tiny shoots were produced when in vivo derived stem nodes (on which all leaves were removed) were cultured on WPM with 30 to 50 $\mu$M 2iP or 20 to 50 $\mu$M zeatin. The greatest number of multiple tiny shoot proliferation (32 to 50 shoots per explant) were obtained when the explants were cultured on media containing 20 $\mu$M zeatin. Successful transplanting of these multiple shoots into the greenhouse and/or nursery was achieved.

Single-node stem pieces ca. 1 cm in length containing a axillary bud were obtained from in vitro plants of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). The influences by a position of the node and the existence of a leaf at the node were observed in the single-node culture on the 8% sucrose MS medium. The effect of CCC was also investigated for the microtuberization. The apical part node was excellent in the tuberization not to mention shoot length, fresh weight, diameter, the number of node on the in vitro culture of a single-node than the lower part. The differences in the diameter of a tuber formed in the part of the axillary bud on all treatments including the cultivation of the apical part node were not recognized. However, the fresh weight of the tuber showed high value in the tuber formed at the axillary bud of shoot apex part. At 20 days after cultivation, tuberization was promoted in the new stolen that developed from the bud of node with a leaf under SD condition of 8 hours at $20^{\circ}C$. The tuberization from axillary bud of the single-node without leaf was inhibited at high temperature of $28^{\circ}C$ regardless of daylength. Whereas, tuberization at $20^{\circ}C$ and $28^{\circ}C$ was similar without the difference under SD condition but the tuber formation ratio were low. CCC 500 mg/L promoted tuberization and the effect was also showed even under LD condition at $28^{\circ}C$. The inhibiton of tuberization under LD and high temperature condition could be solved by treatment with CCC.

Callus induction and embryogenesis were studied in three different genotypes of Acanthopanax senticosus, to develop a protocol for somatic embryogenesis and acclimatization. Young leaf, stem, node, petiole, peduncle, flower and root explants were collected from 3-year old trees of A. senticosus accessions (Korea, Russia and Japan). Callus was obtained from all cultured explants but showed the higher rate of callus formation in flower cultured. For the three A. senticosus accessions, callus was well formd on MS media containing 2mg/ l of 2,4-D and 2mg/ l of TDZ, 4mg/ l of 2,4-D and 1mg/ l of TDZ than other treatments. For three A. senticosus accessions, when callus transferred to MS medium with 2,4-D, embryogenic cell formed. For A. senticosus accessions Korea, embryogenic cells were obtained on callus induced from petiole, stem, node and root explants, and induction rate was lower than 3%. 200mg of embryogenic callus was transferred to MS free liquid medium and somatic embryos of heart stage were obtained after 45days of culture. When somatic embryo of germination stage were transferred to solid medium, most of the embryos were regenerated into plantlets on 1/4 MS medium. Normal plants with both shoots and roots were transferred to greenhouse soil and were successfully acclimatized.

The experiment was conducted to know the effect of plant growth regulators on axillary bud elongation from in vitro stem cutting and the possibility of virus-free stock production. Axillary buds were well elongated in 3/4 strength MS medium supplemented with 0.1 or 0.5 mg/1 BA and 0.05 mg/1 NAA. Transferred plantlets could be established well in vermiculite and peat moss mixture (3:1, v/v) compare to other mixtures. In virus indexing, all the varieties of mother plants were infected by GLRV Ⅲ. Infected percentages of the three varieties were ranged from 30% to 75%. But negative response was revealed against the other species of virus, GLRV Ⅰ, GFLV and ArMV. Plantlet of 'Schuyler' and 'Muscat of Alexandria', which were cultured in vitro, showed positive response against GLRV Ⅲ and infected percentage of the former was 37.5% but the latter, 12.5%. On the other hand, that of 'Campbell Early' negativiely responded against all the species of virus indexed.
