To improve methods of screening rice cultivars with field resistance to bacterial leaf blight, testing plant inoculation and neighbor plant inoculation were compared by using 33 rice cultivars. In the testing plant inoculation method, field resistance was evaluated by measuring the leaf areas diseased on the new leaves expanded after the inoculation. Varietal differences in field resistance were recognized more clearly by the testing plant inoculation method than by the neighbor plant inoculation method. Highly significant correlation was observed between the results of the two methods. Some rice cultivars such as, Seomjin, Hangangchal, Taebaeg, Samgang, Milyang 42, Asominori, Java 14, Chugoku 45 and 70X-46 showed remarkable field resistance to bacterial leaf blight. The testing plant inoculation method appeared desirable for screening rice cultivars for the qualitative and field resistance to bacterial leaf blight because of using less labor and less field area than neighbor plant inoculation.

The infectious flacherie viruses are serious diseases in the silkworm, which affects the cocoon crops. However, there is only a few study on this diseases up-to-date in Korea and, in this experiment, the authors investigated the resistance of the silkworm varieties to flacherie and Ina-flacherie viruses by peroral infection. A cross, Hansaeng ＃1$\times$ Harisaeng ＃2, showed the highest resistance to the flacherie virus a Mudeung$\times$Geumho showed the lowest resistance among the examined varieties. It seemed that the varietal difference of resistance against Ina-flacherie virus was appeared and Jam117$\times$ Jam118, Gyeongchu$\times$Yeonil, Mudeung$\times$Geumho, Hansaeng＃1$\times$Hansaeng＃2 and Hansaeng＃3 $\times$ Hansaeng ＃4 showed non susceptibility by peroral infection. However it was shown that Jam115 $\times$Jam116 had the lowest resistance to Ina-flacherie virus.

This study investigated whether culture filtrates produced by Xylella fastidiosa can be used to determine the varietal susceptibility to Pierce's disease in grapevines (Vitis spp.) as a substitute for pathogen inoculation or field screening. A bioassay of grape leaves with culture filtrates from the pathogen showed that their phytotoxicities were active and host-selective. Ethyl acetate extracts from them also showed toxicities and host selectivity in both bunches of grapes and muscadine grapes. The sensitive range of plants to the culture filtrates and their ethyl acetate extracts was consistent with the host range of the Pierce's disease pathogen. Susceptible cultivars are sensitive to even highly diluted culture filtrates, while resistant cultivars were not affected even at their original culture filtrates. Susceptible cultivars were more sensitive to the undiluted culture filtrate than were highly diluted culture filtrates, and the younger leaves were the most sensitive to the culture filtrates in grapes. Although some European grape cultivars showed moderately susceptibility in this study, the determination of varietal resistance to Pierce's disease by the treatment of culture filtrates of pathogens could provide valuable information for the preliminary selection of genetic resources and seedlings from hybridization in a disease resistant grape breeding program.

Experiments were conducted to study resistance of rice varieties originated from Korea·and IRRI-sources to the green rice leafhopper, Nephotettix cincticeps UHLER. The nature of varietal resistance to the insect was evaluated from the viewpoints of ovipositional and feeding preferences and antibiosis. A trial was also made to survey local biotypes o( the green rice leafhopper possible to show different reaction for the rice varieties. The varieties resistant to the green rice leafhopper were mostly IRRI sources such as Bir-tsan-3, MTU-15, DK-1, DV-139, H105, ASD-7, MGL-2, PTB-18, Muthumanikam, Vellanlangalayan, and the domestic commercial varieties were generally susceptible, but only the reaction of Tong-il and its lines were moderate. Ovipositional and feeding preferences were significantly different among the varieties, but no correlation was observed between the two preferences. The nature of varietal resistance to the insect seemed to be related with the feeding preference, not ovipositional preference. The green rice leafhoppers confined on the resistant varieties such as PTB-18, Muthumanikam, H105 etc. suffered higher nymphal mortality than the susceptible varieties such as T(N) 1 and Jinheung. Though the varieties Mudgo and Suweon 214 were moderately resistant and moderate in plant reaction, the insects confned on two varieties suffered relatively higher nymphal mortality. No local biotypes of green rice leafhoppers with respect to plant reaction were found.

Average yield of wheat and barley cultivars has been increased 3 percent every year by varietal improvement. The major characteristic changes of those improved cultivars were the early maturing and lodging resistance using dwarf genes, 70-90cm of culm length appearances, under the heavy fertilizer application. Looking back the cultural practices of wheat and barley for the last 20 years, the introduction of early maturing and lodging resistance cultivars around 1970 brought the changes of seeding rate from 65kg to 130- 200kg per hector and the tillering increased by heavy fertilizer. The utilization of livestock and man power for preparation of seedbed were gradually disappeared by increasing agricultural mechanization. The narrow-spaced seeding $(40cm {\times} l8cm)$ and drill seeding $(20cm {\times} 5cm)$ in upland, broadcasting or drilling on high ridge $(120cm {\times} 90cm)$ with the power-toller and whole area broadcasting in paddy field were improved as the main cultural method. The use of agricultural machineries reduced the labour consumption of 940 man hours to 180 man hours per hector from seeding to harvest.

A laboratory experiment was conducted to investigate varietal differences in feeding preference of striped rice borer larvae (Chilo suppressalis W.) to the stem pieces of the eight rice varieties. The preference of the larvae for feeding was significantly differed with the varieties, and in some varieties they were changed with the stages of the plants after transplanting. The larvae much more preferred the susceptible variety Rexoro than the resistant variety TKM-6. The varieties Tongil (Suweon 213-1), Yushin, Jinheung and IR-26 showed comparatively lower feeding preference than TKM-6. Some varieties exhibited a rather interesting phenomenon; strong preference in feeding was observed during the vegetative phase for Tetep and Tongil (Suweon 213-1) and during the maturing phase for Suweon 240 and Yushin. When the varieties TKM-6, Tongil and Rexore were given in several combinations, Rexore was strongly preferred by the larvae than others, and Tongil was still comparatively low in feeding preference of the larvae. The non-feeding preference of the larvae were considered to be in coincidence with the resistance of rice varieties to the striped rice borer.

Sclerotinia rot, caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, is a devastating disease that poses a serious threat to perilla production in Korea. Identifying effective sources of resistance offers long term prospects for improving management of this disease. Screening disease resistant genetic resources is important for development of disease-resistant, new cultivars and conduct related research. In the present study, perilla germplasm were screened in vitro against S. sclerotiorum using detached leaf method. Among 544 perilla accessions, two were highly resistant (IT226504, IT226533), five were resistant (IT226561, IT226532, IT226526, IT226441, and IT226589), five were moderately resistant (IT226525, IT226640, IT226568, IT220624, and IT178655), 16 were moderately susceptible, 31 were susceptible, and 485 were highly susceptible. The resistant accessions in this study could serve as resistance donor in the breeding of Sclerotinia rot resistance or subjected to selection procedure of varietal development for direct use by breeders, farmers, researchers, and end consumers.

Sequence-tagged site (STS) markers tightly linked to the bacterial leaf blight (BLB) resistance genes, xa5, xa13 and Xa21, were used in this study. A survey was conducted to find polymorphisms between the resistant and susceptible germplasm in rice. 500 of Korean varieties and 100 of landraces were evaluated in this study. STS marker, RG207 was used to having xa5 resistance gene of rice germplasm. 27 varieties of Korean germplasm showed resistant for xa5 gene. The RG136 an xa-13 marker resulted in a single band of approximately 1kb in all the rice accessions studied. In order to detect polymorphism, digestion of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product was performed using a restriction enzyme Hinf Ⅰ. The resistant lines resulted in two bands 0.5kb on digestion with Hinf Ⅰ, while the same enzyme did not digest the PCR product of susceptible lines. No polymorphism was detected in Korean varieties and landraces, indicating that they probably do not contain xa13 gene. pTA248 an Xa-21 marker detected a band of 1kb in the resistant lines and bands of either 750bp or 700bp in the susceptible lines. Among germplasm tested, there are no varieties and landraces with Xa21 resistant gene. The results of the germplasm survey will be useful for the selection of parents in breeding programs aimed at transferring these bacterial blight resistance genes from one varietal background to another.

It was investigated whether culture filtrates produced by X. fastiduosa could be used to determine varietal susceptibility in grape cultivars to anthracnose as a substitute for pathogen inoculation or field screening. Bioassay of grape leaves with culture filtrates showed that their phytotoxicities were active and host-selective. Ethyl acetate extracts from those also showed the toxicities and host selectivity among grape cultivars. The sensitive range of plants to culture filtrates and their ethyl acetate extracts was consistent with the host range to the pathogen. Susceptible cultivars were sensitive to even highly diluted culture filtrates but resistant cultivars were not affected even at original culture filtrates. Susceptible cultivars were sensitive to the undiluted culture filtrates than highly diluted culture filtrates and the younger leaves were the more sensitive to the culture filtrates and their ethyl acetate extracts in grapes.

This paper was performed to study the nature of varietal resistance of some Korean-new rice cultivars to the brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens ($ST{\AA}L$). The rice cultivars tested were Cheongcheong, Gaya, Hangangchal, Samgang, Nampoong and Yeongpoong which have been reported as having resistant genes for the BPH. The check varieties were Jinheung, Sangpoong and Chucheong for susceptible and IR-36 for resistant. The factors studied were referred to the seedling responses, preference in feeding and oviposition of BPH, antibiosis (nymphal development, adult emergence and sex ratio, adult body weight, population build-up, feeding amount and amylase activity), and chemical composition (inorganic components, chlorophyll contents, cell wall components, amino acids and esterase isozymes) of leaf- sheath and/or roots of rice plants. In conclusion, the natures of varietal resistance of rice cultivars to the BPH were not only correlated with the resistant reaction of rice plant, but also they were related with the non preference in feeding and oviposition and those resistant cultivars had the antibiotic effects to the insects. Their antibiotic effects of rice cultivars to the BPH would be related with some of the chemical components of rice plants, such as the contents of magnesium oxide (MgO), and chlorophyll and the different esterase isozymes.
