In order to improve cultivation technique of Codonopsis lanceolata, uniconazol and paclobutrazol were treated periodically with foliar application during differentiation of node. Plant height, width and length of leaves decreased as the concentration of uniconazol and paclobutrazol increased independently of application period. Characteristics of subterranean part of all treatment by uniconazol foliar application did not show any significant difference to control, except when treated at the differentiated stage of 3rd node. But, when uniconazol was treated with the concentration of 10, 100mg $liter^1$, respectively at the differentiated stage of 12th node, fresh weight was increased to approximately 64%, 100% of control, respectively. Control and 10mg $liter^1$ treated at the differented stage of 6th node showed antitumor activity by the P388 cytotoxic screening test. Fresh weight of all treatment by paclobutrazol foliar application was not showed signigicant difference to control, except when treated at the differentiateed stage of 3rd node. But, when paclobutrazol was treated with the concentration of 10mg $liter^1$ at the differentiated stage of 12th node, fresh weight was slightly increased of control. All treatment showed slight antitumor activity by the P388 cytotoxic screening test.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of gibberellin biosynthesis retardants as used by rice lodging inhibitors on the gibberellin antagonism, auxin interation, ethylene evolution and growth of second crops. Results obtained can be summarized as follows. Inabenfide, paclobutrazol and uniconazole markedly inhibited the epicotyl elongation of mung bean. Inhibiting effect of epicotyl by these chemicals was markedly stimulated by gibberellic acid, thus showing clear antagonism between these chemicals and gibberellic acid. Significantly large number of roots were formed in the mung bean cuttings which were rooted in the paclobutrazol and uniconazol of 1 ppm. The higher the concentration, the more the number of roots forms. It was guessed that these effect was closely related with auxin. Ethylene evolution was a little stimulated in the leaf of rice under the treatment of inabenfide, paclobutrazol and uniconazole at earlier stage(5 DAT), however it was suppressed at later stage(10, 30 DAT) at higher concentration. The effect of gibberllin biosynthesis inhibitors to second crops retarded tomato plants without influencing the height of barley. The treatment of paclobutrazol and uniconazol which is triazole-type more severely inhibited than that of inabenfide which is isonicotinanilide-type. The more the concentration, the less the height of tomato plants.

This experiment was carried out to obtain the information on seed dormancy, germinability during storage in wasabia japonica Matsum. $GA_3$ 100ppm+BA 10ppm was more effective than $GA_3$100ppm alone in breaking the dormancy. Storage of seeds pretreated with growth retardants (CCC, Uniconazol) seemed to be a useful method for preventing germination during storage. The stratification was an effective storage method to germinate the seeds for sowing them in fall.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of ethephon, paclobutrazol, and uniconazole on the flowering of potted Yarrow (Archillea millefolium). Each plant growth regulator was sprayed two times before stem elongation period of yarrow. The tallest was 45.7 cm at $1000mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ ethephon and the shortest was 11.1 cm at 20 uniconazole. Uniconazole delayed flowering and decreased the number of flowers. Both uniconazole at 20 ppm and paclobutrazol at 200 ppm decreased the number of florets to 90.0% and 43.6% of control, respectively. In ethephon, number of florets was increased 34.1% compared with control. In addition, ethephon and paclobutrazol increased the number of mean auxillaly flowers to 28.6% and 23.5% of control, respectively. On the other hand, uniconazole decrease the number of auxillary flowers to 55.3%. Thus, paclobutrazol was recommended as a suitable plant growth regulator for yarrow pot plant production.

The results of recent researches for improvement of seedling stand in direct seeded rice on the dry paddy in Korea were summarized as the following ; a variety to be cultivated should be chosen the characteristics of high percentage germination under low temperature, shorter period of shoot emergence, and better growth of the mesocotyl and shoots. Meanwhile, there was 40% increase in seedling stand at the treatment of removal of the seed awn under using the drill seeder. After seeding the rice seed covered with soil of 3cm depth was better seedling emergence and also there was the hightest seedling emergence at the 70% of moisture content of the soil. In addition, the application of the Release containing GA 10% enabled to increase the seedling stand and furthermore it was effective under deep seeding depth. The optimum seeding date should be seeded around May 10 when mean air temperature is above 12-13$^{\circ}C$ so that may establish more less 70% in seedling stand. Based on an appropriate seedling stand of 150/$m^2$, the optimum seeding rate was 5kg/10a. It was the best in seeding method using drill seeder and the most desirable recommended seeding method was the drill seeder in terms of seedling stand. In order to improve seedling stand water management was more effective in canal irrigation and in drainage at 6hr after irrigation following by the seeding process. On the other hand, for the increase of seedling stand under flooded condition a variety might have characters being better germination at low concentration of dissolved oxygen and vertically deeper growing of the crown root. Also, seedling stand was able to increase with the seed coating of $CaO_2$in the flooded soil. It was possible to be seeded on the early part of May being mean air temperature of avove 10$^{\circ}C$ and the optimum seeding rate was 5kg/10a. For an effective water management water would be flooded up to 3cm depth for 2-3 weeks after seeding. The rice plant grown under the direct seeded cultivation might be not so much strong in lodging resistance compared to that grown under the transplanting and moreover direct seeded rice cultivation under flooded condition would be more weak growth of the rice plant than that on dry paddy. Meanwhile, the lodging would be affected by the seeding rate, the soil depth after seeding. and seeding method even in the same variety. In particular, roots in the lodging pattern of direct seeded rice cultivation under flooded condition were largely distributed on the soil surface so that resulted easily in the lodging. In general, the lodging resistance would be greater as seeding rate and amount of N fertilizer application are lower and soil depth after seeding is higher. Among the introduction of different seeding method the high ridged drill seeding method on dry paddy soil resulted in the lowest in the lodging index and also it was lower in the drill seeding method than in the scattering seeding method under flooded condition. In case of more than 150 seedlings per $m^2$ there was a severe lodging due to high lodging index at the 3rd and 4th internodes. The effective lodging prevention was able to at the treatment of the Inabenfide at 45 days before heading and the Uniconazol at 15 days before heading which caused the shortage by 10-15cm in culm length. Also, fertilizer management using split application of nitrogen would be contributed the reduction of lodging at the rate of 20-30-20-20-10%(basal-5th leaf stage-7th leaf stage-panicle initiation stage-heading stage) on the dry paddy soil.

Several factors affecting emergence and tuber formation of lowland perennial weeds were studied at the Yeongnam Crop Experiment Station in 1988. Period of tuber germination start to final tuber varied by species. Eleocharis kuroguwai and Sagittaria trifolia required longer than 10 days at $30^{\circ}C$ for this while Cyperus serotinus and S. pygmaea needed about 4 days. Application of gibberellic acid shortened this period while Uniconazole application delayed. E. kuroguwai and C. serotinus had ability to emerge under 20cm depth placement. However, S. trifolia could not emerge under 15cm depth. All species decreased their growth with increase in planting depth. E. kuroguwai had least correlated between dry matter production and tuber formation. Clipping of above ground part negatively related with tuber formation eventhough the effect of clipping time was differed by species. The most critical clipping time was 60 days after eremergence (DAE) for E. kuroguwai and 90 DAE for C. serotinus. Covering of colored polyethylene film was also related with tuber formation with varing effects. In general, the order of effectiveness for tuber formation were black. orange. blue and red. Application of Uniconazole and Pachlobutrazol effectively controlled the formation of tuber of E. kuroguwai and this effect enhanced by early application.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of plant growth retardants on the growth and characters related with lodging in rice. The results are summarized as follows. Plant height which is closely related to lodging was significantly inhibited by the application of inabenfide, paclobutrazol, and uniconazole. Among the tested application times, inabenfide, paclobutrazol, and uniconazole were the most effective in inhibiting plant height at 30, 20, 20 days before heading respectively. Inabenfide was markedly effective in reducing the lower (4th) internode length, whereas paclobutrazol and uniconazole were more effective in reducing the upper (3rd and 2nd) internode length. Internode wall of rice plant treated with chemicals was tended to be thickened as compared with control. Heading date was not influenced by inabenfide, but paclobutrazol and uniconazole were inhibited 1 or 2 days in heading date as compared with control. Lodging index was the most reduced when inabenfide was applied 30 days before heading with 160g ai whereas paclobutrazol and uniconazole were applied 15 days before heading with 12, 1.2g ai per 10a, respectively. All the treatments inhibited the lodging of rice but control was completely lodged. Yield treated with these chemicals was prevented by 10-12% of yield decrease occurred by lodging. As a conclusion, inabenfide with 120 or 160g ai at 40 or 30 days before heading, paclobutrazol with 12g ai at 15 days before heading, arid uniconazole with 1.2g ai at 15 days before heading appear to be the most practical application time and rate for preventing lodging in paddy rice.
