Effects of triacontanol(TRIA) on several parameters of senescence including the changes of related enzyme activities were investigated in radish(Raphanus sativus L._ cotyledons developing in light. In senescing radish cotyledons, 1.0mg TRIA/1 retarded the degradation of chlorophyll content. Moreover, it depressed the increases of malondialdehyde and H2O2 contents compared to the control. Catalase and superoxide dismutase activities were highly maintained but the increase of peroxidase activity was inhibited remarkably under the TRIA application. These results suggested that TRIA participated in the regulation of senescence during the late part of cotyledon development where it delayed senescence through its action on free radical-associated enzymes and consequent metabolic turnover.

An hydrocarbon alcohol and steroids were isolated from the hexane fraction of the extract from the seeds of Phaseolus radiatus L. And also a flavonoid was identified from the ethyl acetate and butanol fraction. The structure of the obtained compound were elucidated by spectroscopic methods (UV, IR, mass and NMR) and their physicochemical properties. As the results, triacontanol, stigmasterol, ${\beta}-sitosterol$ and vitexin were identified.

The methanol extract of Euphorbia milii exhibited strong inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation in the cource of our search for anti-platelet component from succulent plants. Two components, components 1 and 2 were isolated from this plant. 1 was the mixture of 72% of 1-octacosanol (1a) and 28% of 1-triacontanol (1b), and 2 was identified as ${\beta}-sitosterol$. 2 ($IC_{50}$: $195\;{\mu}M$, and $170\;{\mu}M$ respectively) was about two fold stronger than ASA ($IC_{50}$: $420\;{\mu}M$ and $340\;{\mu}M$ respectively) on both collagen and U46619 induced aggregation, while the effect of 1 to platelets was negligible.

The present study investigated the effects of triacontanol (TRIA) on plant growth and peroxisomal enzyme activities in radish seedlings. The optimum concentration of TRIA with respect to radish seedling bioassay was decided to 1.0mg $1^{-1}$. In comparison to untreated controls (including Tween 20 treatment), 1.0mg $1^{-1}$ TRIA treatment caused an increase in seed germination rate and root growth, but no stimulation in hypocotyl growth. Chlorophyll accumulation in cotyledon during carly development stage increased rapidly, and degradation of chlorophyll in later stage due to the cotyledon senesence was noticeably retarded. Increase of soluble protein content in cotyledon at early period of development was observed. Isocitrate lyase and catalase activity was not significantly different in both the treated and the untreated plants. But, glycolate oxidase activity was inhibited by TRIA down to 20% against controls. Also, the increase of the activity of peroxidase, a leaf-senescence marker enzyme, was continuously retarded over control for 8 days of development. Based on above results, TRIA was found to be active in both the growth and the peroxisomal enzyme activities of radish seedlings.

Twelve species of Ipomoea were investigated for allelopathic behavior. Seed extracts of I. quamoclit, I. nil and I. pes-tigridis showed significant allelopathy over germination of other seeds. Investigation on seed extracts of I. quamoclit, revealed the presence of several phytochemical components viz., n-triacontanol, sitosterol, stigmasterol, ${\alpha}-amyrin$, taraxerone, taraxerol, erythrodiol, cucurbitacin-G. Seed fat of twelve species were also analyzed.

Realizing the scope of utilizing by-products of silk cocoons by applying appropriate methods is the immediate crave to optimize returns. The nutritive value of pupae suits for human diet, feed for poultry, carps, fish, rabbits, piggery and dogs. The pupal skin, fat, oil, cocoon palade have applications in oleo chemical, soap, glycerin, cosmetic, artificial fibres, membranes and n-triacontanol isolation. The pupal proteins Chitin, Shinki fibroin, Serrapeptidase, glucosamine are latent precursors of post surgical, anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammative, anti-bacterial, anti-histaminic, gastric, hepatitis, pancreatitis, leukocytopenia, neurological, ophthalmic, blood pressure, cardiac and diabetic medicines and for preparation of vitamins A, E and K. The silk and its proteins sericin and fibroin are potentially used for wound healing, diabetes, impotence, sinusitis, arthritis, edema, cystitis, epididymitis, tissue regeneration, cancer, post-surgical trauma and used as anti-oxidatives, bio-adhesives, ultra violet screens and bio-active textiles. The waste cocoons can be used in making art crafts like garlands, carpets, overcoats, decoratives and greeting cards. The in-depth research towards utility optimization and make aware this reality to sericulturists, reelers, weavers, traders, entrepreneurs, policy makers etc., is the upright want of the today's Sericulture industry.

For the purpose of rice yield, 3 rice varieties S-235 (Sam-Pung), S-287(Tai-Baik), S-294(Nam-Pung), control experiment College of Agriculture, Seoul National University garden in 1982. Method of experiment are 4 treatment, 4 replication and randomized block design. Unhilled rice were increased S-235 14.8%, S-287 of 16.2%, S-294 of 15.7%. Each varieties were each sigmificant of 1%. And the best increased, Triacon 10 and $CaCl_2$ 15mM. It think that problems were the more study. Among factor of yield, increase is panice no. of hill and the same varieties. Only S-287 of panicle of hill is significant of 5% and also 1000 seed weight is not significant. The factor of increase yield is important of no. of flower. No. of flower increase is concerned Triacon, the mechanism will study.
