Changes in the content of volatile terpenoids were investigated with heat-treated carrot. As heat treatment temperature became higher, the amount of volatile terpenoids decreased significantly. According to heat-treatment period, the volatile terpenoids, a-pinene and total terpenoids, decreased drastically during the initial 30-minutes of heat treatment but the rate of decrease slowed down afterwards. When changes in the content of volatile terpenoids in carrot juice were investigated according to sterilization temperature and period, the content decreased quickly with higher sterilization temperature. According to sterilization period, the content of volatile terpenoids decreased drastically during the initial 20-minutes of sterilization but decreased gradually afterwards. The amount of total terpenoids decreased more when sterilization was done at 10$0^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes compared to sterilization at 6$0^{\circ}C$ and 8$0^{\circ}C$ for 60 min. In order to reduce the amount of volatile terpenoids in carrot juice, sterilization at high temperature for a short period of time would be more effective compared with sterilization at low temperature for a long period of time.

Using direct headspace sampling (DHS) method, volatile terpenoid content was measured according to carrot cultured areas and various portions of carrot. In comparison of volatile terpenoid content in xylem and phloem of carrot, every volatile terpenoid was distributed highly in the xylem rather than the phloem of carrot. The carrot was divided into three different sections; upper (crown), middle (midsection), and lower part (tip), and the volatile terpenoids were measured. The content of ${\alpha}-pinene,\;{\beta}-pinene,\;{\beta}-myrcene,\;and\;{\gamma}-terpinene$ tended to be distributed highly in the upper part rather than the lower part, whereas the content of terpinolene and total terpenoids tended to be high in the lower part. In comparison of volatile terpenoid content according to the carrot cultured areas, volatile terpenoid content of carrot cultured in Cheju island was higher than Yangsan and Haenam areas. In case of total terpenoids, the carrot clutivars cultured in Cheju island contained $1.6{\sim}2.3\;times$ higher than those of Yangsan, and $1.5{\sim}2.4\;times$ higher than Haenam. In order to investigate the above results, we sampled out soils from the carrot fields and measured physical and chemical characteristics of the soils. The pH did not show much difference in the three areas. However the organic carbon, total nitrogen, cation exchange capacity, and total exchangeable cation in soil from Cheju were $2.4{\sim}3.0\;times$ higher than Yangsan and $3.9{\sim}7.1\;times$ higher than Haenam. The physical characteristics of the soils was investigated. The soil from Cheju island was found to be loam; Yangsan, sandy loam, and Haenam, clay loam.

Allelopathic activity of the volatiles from leaves of Perilla frutescens an Artemisia asiatica was determined on the basis of bioassay, which tested germination and seedling growth of radish, rice, mung bean and lettuce. Seedling growth was more inhibited by phytotoxic volatiles than germination. Volatile components collected by headspace cold trapping-Tenax GC adsorption were analyzed by GC-MS. Fifteen volatile components in P. frutescens and 15 components in A. asiatica were identified. By steam distillation-extraction, 4 flavor components in P. frutescens and 10 components in A. asiatica were identified. The inhibitory activity of the fractions, obtained by steam distillation-extraction, was determined by virtue of bioassay on radish. Volatile allelochemicals of the most active fraction, neutral fraction, isolated from P. frutescens contained 9 components. In A. asiatica, 24 volatile allelochemicals were identified.

The presence of saponin, terpenoid, steroid, anthraquinone and flavonoid were screened with the usual test methods in forty five(sixty four parts) Korean plants belonging to Urticaceae, Celastraceae, Rhamnaceae, Sterculiceae and Rubiaceae. Plants were extracted with methanol and fractionated with hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate and butanol. Each fraction was tested for the components. The result showed that in saponin test, 21 plants were positive and 11 plants were weak positive; in terpenoid and steroid test, 26 plants were strong positive; in anthraquinone test, 20 plants strong positive; in flavonoid test, 31 plants were positive and 9 plants were weak positive.

A triterpenoid compound$(C_{30}H_{50}O)$ was isolated from the hydrocarbon and alcohol fraction of the roots of $Codonopsis\;lanceolata\;B_{ENTH}$. et $H_{OOK}$. (Campanulaceae) and it was identified as cycloartenol by physico- chemical data.

Isomotiol $(fern-8-en-3{\beta}-ol)$ was isolated from the n-hexane fraction of Euphorbia supina Rafin. The structure of isomotiol was identified by IR, NMR, Mass spectra and compared with the authentic sample. Isomotiol was first isolated from the family of Euphorbiaceae.

Phytochemical investigations on the aerial parts of Asplenium scolopendrium led to the isolation of four terpenoids, the structures of which were assigned as lutein (1), (6S,9S)-roseoside (2), icariside $B_2$ (3), and picrionoside A (4) using spectroscopic data.
