Six species under the basidiomycetes were screened for extracellular tannase (tannin acyl hydrolase EC 3.1. 1.20) production in submerged culture and Lenzites betulina was found to be most effective for the production of tannase. The optimum cultural conditions for tannase production were $25^{\circ}C$, pH 6.0 and 21 days of culture period, The efficient composition of culture medium for the production of tannase was performed in synthetic medium containing tannic acid, 2g; sucrose, 5g; bacto-peptone, 2g; ,$ KH_2PO_4, \;2g,\; MgSO_4.7H_2O \;0.5g,\; CuS0_4.5H_2O$, 2 mg; thiamine HCl, 100 ug and distilled water 100 ml, The tannase produced from Lenzites bdulin*r was 223.3 unit (umole of gaUic acidiml of brothlmin). The tannase had an optimal reaction conditions ofpH 6.0 and temperature of $40^{\circ}C$. The enzyme was stable at temperature below $40^{\circ}C$ and lost its activity by 50% above $60^{\circ}C$. And the stable pH range was 5.5 to 6.0.

Phellinus genus belonged to Hymenochaetaceae of Basidiomycetes and has been well known as one of the most popular medicinal mushrooms due to high antitumor activity. This study was carried out to obtain the basic information for mycelial culture conditions of Phellinus linteus, P. baumii, and P. gilvus. According to colony diameter and mycelial density, the media for suitable mycelial growth of them were shown in MEA, glucose peptone, and MCM. The optimum temperature for mycelial growth was $30^{\circ}C$. Carbon and nitrogen sources were man nose and malt extract, respectively. The optimum C/N ratio was 10:1 to 5:1 with 2% glucose concentration, vitamin was thiamine-HCl, organic acid was succinic acid, and mineral salt was $MgSO_{4}{\cdot}7H_{2}O$.

Ganoderma applanatum is one of the most popular medicinal mushrooms due to the various biologically active components it produces. This study was conducted to obtain basic information regarding the mycelial culture conditions of Ganoderma applanatum. Based on the colony diameter and mycelial density, PDA, YMA and MCM media were suitable for the mycelial growth of the mushroom. The optimum temperature for mycelial growth was found to be $25{\sim}30^{\circ}C$. The optimum carbon and nitrogen sources were mannose and dextrin, respectively, and the optimum C/N ratio was 2 to 10 when 2% glucose was used. Other minor components required for the optimal growth included thiamine-HCl and biotin as vitamins, succinic acid and lactic acid as organic acids, and $MgSO_4$ $7H_2C$, $KH_2PO_4$ and NaCl as mineral salts.

A good mycelial growth of F. fraxinea was observed on CDA medium. The optimum temperature and pH for the mycelial growth of F. fraxinea was at $30^{\circ}C$ and pH 6.0, respectively. Glucose was found to be the best carbon source and arginine was favored as nitrogen source. When the basal medium was supplemented with organic acids, the best growth was shown in succinic acid and the poor growth was shown in oxalic acid. Thiamine.HCl showed the best results on the growth of this fungus on basal medium. Mycelial growth of F. fraxinea was quite good when oak tree sawdust was used to cultural substrates. The best mycelial growth was observed when 20% of rice bran was added as a supplement on sawdust substrates. Higher yield of F. fraxinea was observed on the medium with oak tree and acacia sawdust.

The experiments were carried out to improve culture efficiency of rhizome and mericlone propagation through settlement of problems occurring during culture period of temperate Cymbidium species. Shooting efficiency from rhizome of C. forrestii 'Nokwoon' was improved, when cultured in $H_3P_4$ medium (Hyponex 3+peptone 4g/L) supplemented with 170mg/L $NaH_2PO_4{\cdot}H_2O$ and 0.4mg/L Thiamin e HCl, but the other varieties were not influenced to shooting efficiency by additives. Medium in which rhizome of C. nishiuchianum 'Hodukjiwha' was cultured became less browned in $H_3P_4$ medium added with 150mg/L PVP, but the other treatments of antioxidants was failed to prevent the medium browning. Re-formation of rhizome from young shoots of C. forrestii 'Sojub', 5.5cm in length occured in $H_3P_4$ enriched with 2.0 mg/L NAA and 1.0 mg/L BA under darkness, but axillary buds were elongated in the medium with 1.0 mg/L NAA and 3.0 mg/L BA under light condition. On the other hand, rhizomes from young shoot of C. forrestii 'Seosinmae' and 'Songmae', 5.5cm and 2.5cm in length respectively were reformed in 2.0 mg/L NAA and 5.0mg/L kinetin under darkness, but multishoot from young shoot were emerged in 2.0mg/L NAA and 3.0mg/L BA.

The effect of subculture intervals and passages on plant regeneration from seed-derived callus was determined. Regeneration capacity of callus varied with rice cultivars and subculture intervars tested. The callus subcultured every 2 weeks produced more plants than that of 4 weeks. The calli from a Tongil-type rice cultivar, Milyang 23, lost easily their regeneration ability when the calli were subcultured every 2 weeks and 4 weeks. The callus induced from a japonica cultivar, "Yeongdeogbyeo", showed to maintain high frequency(>70%) of plant regeneration when it was subcultured every 2-week intervals. Casein hydrolysate supplemented in callus induction medium enhanced callus growth and its regeneration. High frequency of plant regeneration was obtained from the calli transferred on $N_6$ medium supplemented with kinetin(2mg/1) and NAA(1mg/1). The subcultured calli in the medium supplemented with casein hydrolysate(2 g/1), myo-inositol(200mg/1) and thiamine-HCl(2mg/1) increased the frequency of embryogenic callus formation and plant regeneration.

This study describes the effect of myo-inositol on sustained cell division and plant regeneration from cotyledon-derived protoplast of cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata). Freshly isolated protoplasts were cultured in modified Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium removed ammonia ions and containing $0.4\;mg\;l^{-1}$ thiamine HCl, $100\;mg\;l^{-1}$ myo-inositol, $2\;mgl^{-1}$ 2,4-D, $0.5\;mgl^{-1}$ BA, $30\;gl^{-1}$ sucrose and several concentrations of myo-inositol (2, 4, 6, 8, 10% (w/v)) as an osmotic stabilizer. After 3 weeks of culture in the dark at $25^{\circ}C$, the plating efficiency of cabbage protoplasts reached to $22.5{\pm}2.9%$ when cultured in modified MS medium supplemented with $2\;mgl^{-1}$ 2,4-D, $0.5\;mgl^{-1}$ BA, $30\;gl^{-1}$ sucrose and 8% (w/v) of myo-inositol at a density of $2{\times}10^5$ protoplasts/ml. Rapidly growing cell colonies after 3 weeks of culture were transferred to the same culture medium removed osmoticum. To induce shoot regeneration from calluses, calluses with about 2 mm in diameter were transferred to the MS medium containing $2\;mgl^{-1}$ BA and $0.5\;mgl^{-1}$ NAA. After further three weeks of incubation onto the medium in the light, green shoots were formed on the surface of calluses at a frequency of 30%. Upon transfer to half-strength MS basal medium, roots were formed onto the bottom of regenerated shoots without auxin treatments. These regenerated plantlets were successfully acclimatized to soil transfer, grown to normal mature plants. The cabbage protoplast culture system established in this study could be applied for production of somatic hybrids or cybrids by asymmetric protoplast fusion and mass proliferation of elite somatic clones of cabbage.
