Gastrodia elata has been cultivated as an important medicinal resources to treat various human diseases. One of the major problems associated with its field production is the degeneration of seed tubers, which is mainly caused by soil-borne pathogens. This study was conducted to produce disease-free seed tubers by the development of in vitro micropropagation method. First, tubers of G. elata were treated with $HgCl_2$ prior to culturing in vitro. Among various culture medium tested, water agar (WA) and WPM medium were the most effective on the induction and growth of vegetative stems. NAA ($0.1mg/{\ell}$) or TDZ ($1.0mg/{\ell}$) in WA medium showed better growth of vegetative stems compared to other plant hormones. Finally the induction and growth of vegetative stems were better in the dark compared to the light condition. In this study, we established an in vitro micropropagation system of G. elata, which might be an efficient way to increase the yield and quality of G. elata tubers in the field production.

The study was carried out to evaluate the affect of proton beam radiation on production of bulbil and tuber including change of endogenous gibberellins, of Dioscorea opposita Thunb. The yield of bulbils and tubers from non- and irradiated D. opposita Thunb at doses of 5, 10, 15 and 20 Gy were determined. Endogenous gibberellins were also quantified by GC/MS analysis. D. opposita tubers irradiated at 15 Gy produced higher bulbil production than non-irradiated plants. Enlarged bulbil (above size diameter 4 mm) was significantly increased at 15 Gy. Bioactive endogenous $GA_4$ was dominant in bulbils and tubers irradiated with proton beam rather than $GA_1$. Major gibberellins biosynthetic pathways in bulbils and tubers of D. opposita plants were non C-13 hydroxylation route. From the results of this study, 15 Gy proton beam radiation was suggested as an optimal dose that can produce high amounts of bulbil for mass production of D. opposita plant.

This experiment was carried out to determine optimal culture conditions for the production of cut flowers and tubers of Calla (Zantedeschia 'Black Magic') in highlands. To achieve the research purpose, growth of 'Black Magic' Calla influenced by tuber hardness (3.3 and $6.0kg/cm^2$), $GA_3$ concentration (0, 100 and $200mgL^{-1}$), duration of $GA_3$ treatment (24 hr, 12 hr and 30min before planting) were investigated. When tubers have high hardness, those were not severely injured by soft rot disease regardless of $GA_3$ concentrations and treatment durations. Tubers with low tuber hardness showed more than 90% of soft rot occurrence when treated with $200mgL^{-1}$ $GA_3$ for 24 hrs before planting. However, soft rot did not occur when tubers were treated with $200mgL^{-1}$ $GA_3$ for 12 hrs before planting. In conclusion, $GA_3$ treatment results showed soft rot occurrence statistically significant degree in accordance with the bulbs hardness. In addition, the yield of the cut flowers is the result received the greatest effect in accordance with the bulbs in size and appeared to not be determined in accordance with the $GA_3$ treatment concentration and hardness bulbs. To obtain flowers without soft rot symptom, tubers (as $6.0kg/cm^2$) should be completely dried after $GA_3$ treatment.

Higher level of KCl application stimulated both leaf area index and leaf area duration in all cassava varieties, while the leaf and tuber number of the bitter varieties (high cyanide-level varieties) decreased in proportion to the level of KCl application. The root/shoot (R/S) ratio and harvest index (HI) were negatively related with the level of KCl application in all cassava varieties. The bitter varieties obtained the lowest R/S ratio at the level of 100 - 150 kg KCl $ha^{-1}$, while the sweet varieties (low cyanide-level varieties) acquired the highest values at the level of 50 - 150 kg KCl $ha^{-1}$. Also, the sweet varieties showed the lowest HI at the level of 250 kg KCl $ha^{-1}$, but the bitter varieties at the level of 150 kg KCl $ha^{-1}$. At 6 - 8 months after planting, the sweet varieties tended to obtain higher starch content of roots (tubers) at the level of 50 - 150 kg KCl $ha^{-1}$, while the bitter varieties at the level of 150 - 250 kg KCl $ha^{-1}$. Relatively lower level of 50 - 150 kg KCl $ha^{-1}$ was more appropriate for decreasing hydrocyanic acid (HCN) content of roots (tubers) in the sweet varieties at the harvest time, and the level of 250 kg KCl $ha^{-1}$ was adequate to decrease not only HCN content of leaves but also that of roots (tubers) in the bitter varieties during the growing period. To obtain higher yield and starch content of tubers, and lower HCN content of roots (tubers), it was recommended that the sweet varieties are applied with the level of 50 - 100 kg KCl $ha^{-1}$ and the bitter varieties with the level of 150 - 200 kg KCl $ha^{-1}$, respectively, in Latosol soils of Bogor areas, West Java.

Byobusan area of Aomori prefecture in Japan was a marshy sand dune and had developed for agricultural land use with a large-scale sprinkler system. Recently, it becomes an agricultural problem at this area that distinctive damage with browning maculation and fissures frequently occurs in Chinese yam tubers. Acetaldehyde is one of the factor candidates of underground part damage in plants. In this study, incidence rate of the tuber damage, and the morphological character and elemental composition of the damage parts in tubers were investigated with applications of excessive irrigation water or acetaldehyde water solution into the yam field. The incidence rate of the distinctive tuber damage increased as the input amount of irrigation water was increased. At the browning maculation parts of the tubers, many fissures and damages of cork layer were observed under scanning electron microscopy. In addition, the periderm of tubers was significantly thicker in damaged parts than in non-damaged parts. Funguses, bacterium and nematodes were not observed in the damaged part under scanning electron microscopy. The weight ratio of each constituent element in an analyzed area relative to the total weight of major essential elements was measured with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry. The results showed that the weight ratios of boron, carbon, phosphorus, sulfur and calcium were higher in damaged parts than in non-damaged parts whereas the weight ratios of oxygen and chlorine were lower in damaged parts than in non-damaged parts. It was also shown by this spectrometry that iron, cadmium, lead and zinc were not directly involved in occurrence of the tuber damage. In this study, there was no remarkable difference of tuber appearance between non-acetaldehyde and acetaldehyde application treatments. From the above results, it is shown that the damage would be a physiological disorder induced by the input of a large quantity of water in the sandy field.

Background: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of packaging material on the growth of rootstock of Liriope platyphylla. Methods and Results: This study examined the effects of two types of packaging material, LDPE (low density polyethylene) and functional film on the growth of the tubers of L. platyphylla, at $5^{\circ}C$. During the 16-weeks of storage period, the ratio of loss and decay of the tubers was examined at intervals of 4, 8, and 16 weeks to detect the quality of the plant. After 16 weeks of storage, the treated tubers were own. Subsequently, plant height and the number of leaves were recorded. The results revealed that functional film at $5^{\circ}C$ was the ideal material for the storage of L. platyphylla tubers. The rate of loss was the highest (57.42%) with a onion net and the lowest (22.12%) with a functional film. Similarly, the rate of tuber decay was highest (8.20%) using onion net and the least (4.60%) when the functional film was used. Conclusions: Thus, the use of the functional film proved to be the most effective in the storage of L. platyphylla tubers when compared with the LDPE.

Objective : Balloon cells and dysplastic neurons are histopathological hallmarks of the cortical tubers of tuberous sclerosis complex [TSC] and focal cortical dysplasia [FCD] of the Taylor type. They are believed to be the epileptogenic substrate and cause therapeutic drug resistant epilepsy in man. P-glycoprotein [P-gp] is the product of multidrug resistance gene [MDR1], and it maintains intracellular drug concentration at a relatively low level. The authors investigated expression of P-gp in balloon cells and dysplastic neurons of cortical tubers in patients with TSC. Methods : An immunohistochemical study using the primary antibody for P-gp, as an indicative of drug resistance, was performed in the cortical tuber tissues in two patients of surgical resection for epilepsy and six autopsy cases. Results : Balloon cells of each lesion showed different intensity and number in P-gp immunopositivity. P-gp immunopositivity in balloon cells were 28.2%, and dysplastic neurons were 22.7%. These immunoreactivities were more prominent in balloon cells distributed in the subpial region than deeper region of the cortical tubers. Capillary endothelial cells within the cortical tubers also showed P-gp immunopositivity. Conclusion : In this study, the drug resistance protein P-glycoprotein in balloon cells and dysplastic neurons might explain medically refractory epilepsy in TSC.
