The critical low temperature of death under submerged soil was -5^\circ C for the underground tuber of Cyperus serotinus while the vegetative organ (tuber or bulb) of Sagittaria pygmaea and Potamogeton distinctus -6^\circ C, -7^\circ C respectively. On the critical high temperature of death in water bath with 45^\circ C. Potamogeton distinctus and Sagittaria pygmaea were 1 hour, 24 hours, but Cyperus serotinus did not die. When vegetative organs of perenivial weeds setted on the soil surface, the propagation organ of Potamegeton distinctus did not die by desication in 17% of soil moisture, but Cyperus serotinus and Sagittaria pygmaea were dead within 2 to 3 hours in 25^\circ C of soil moisture.

To develop a new propagation method of Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) by cutting, stem cuttings with leaflets obtained from ginseng seedlings were planted in rooting media treated with three levels of NAA concentration. NAA solution of 1.0 ppm was the most effective for the rooting of ginseng stem cuttings as well as for root growth after initiation of the roots from cuttings. A mixture of sand and leaf compost as a rooting medium for ginseng stem cuttings showed the best results in rooting percentage of cuttings and root growth after rooting. An acril film cap covering was very effective to prevent water loss by transpiration from the leaflets of stem cuttings and for rooting and root growth after rooting. Cuttings of leaf petiole with 5 leaflets from 2 year old ginseng plants showed good rooting as well as root growth after rooting in a mixture of sand and leaf compost treated with 1.0 ppm NAA.

A new yellow graft cactus Gymnocalycium mihanovichii ${\times}$ marsoneri cv. 'Hangseong' was developed by the National Institute of Horticultural &Herbal Science, Rural Development Administration in 2005. 'Hangseong' was selected from a interspecific crossing between Gymnocalycium mihanovichii and G. marsoneri. In 1998, 2 lines of '9834024' and '9834036' were selected from a crossing between G. mihanovichii 'IG-124' and G. marsoneri 'IG-223'. The 2 lines were crossed between them. In 2001, progenies produced from a crossing of the 2 lines were nursed and, finally yellow colored 'Wonkyo G1-169' was selected through 3 times of characteristic trials. It was named as 'Hangseong' and applied for a variety protection. Characteristics of 'Hangseong' is as follows: The color of body and tubercles is yellow. The shape of glove is flat with 7 to 9 deep ribs. Spine is medium straight with long size and brown color. Growth is fast as to reach 49.5 mm in diameter at 10 month after planting. Propagation ability is good as to set as many as 7.2 tubercles. 'Hangseong' is suitable for export to European countries or America. Characteristics of the cultivar can be maintained by vegetative propagation.

Background: Epilobium hirsutum L. is designated as an endangered plant in South Korea located in Asia, due to the destruction of its habitats through the development of wetlands. Therefore, in this study, in order to find a light condition suitable for the growth and ecophysiological responses of Epilobium hirsutum L., those of this plant under treatment with various light qualities in a smart farm were measured. Results: In order to examine the changes in the physiological and growth responses of Epilobium hirsutum L. according to the light qualities, the treatment with light qualities of the smart farm was carried out using the red light: blue light irradiation time ratios of 1:1, 1:1/2, and 1:1/5 and a red light: blue light: white light irradiation time ratio of 1:1:1. As a result, the ecophysiological responses (difference between leaf temperature and atmospheric temperature, transpiration rate, net photosynthetic rate, intercellular CO₂ partial pressure, photosynthetic quantum efficiency) to light qualities appeared differently according to the treatments with light qualities. The increase in the blue light ratio increased the difference between the leaf temperature and the atmospheric temperature and the photosynthetic quantum efficiency and decreased the transpiration rate and the intercellular CO₂ partial pressure. On the other hand, the white light treatment increased the transpiration rate and intercellular CO₂ partial pressure and decreased the temperature difference between the leaf temperature and the ambient temperature and photosynthetic quantum efficiency. Conclusions: The light condition suitable for the propagation by the stolons, which are the propagules of Epilobium hirsutum L., in the smart farm, is red, blue and white mixed light with high net photosynthetic rates and low difference between leaf temperature and atmospheric temperature.

The Cassava(Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a tropical root crop, originally from Amazonia, that provides the staple food of an estimated 800 million people worldwide. It belongs to the family Euphorbiaceae which also includes rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) and castor bean (Ricinus communis). Among tropical crops, rice, sugarcane, maize and cassava are the most important sources of calories for human consumption. Problems in the propagation of cassava are virus diseases and low rates of seed germination. So we tried to optimize protocols for mass production of somatic embryo amenable to large-scale vegetative propagation of Cassava. After in vitro eight-week culture of leaves of Cassava, the medium which contained the 2,4-D, BAP and IBA showed the highest callus induction rate, embryogenesis callus formation rate and somatic embryo formation in Cassava culture. In the medium with GA₃ and myo-inositol, shoots were most vigorously regenerated from somatic embryos of Cassava. Our experiments confirmed that in vitro growth and multiplication of plantlets could depend on its reaction to the different medium composition, and this micropropagation techniques could be a useful system for healthy and vigorous plant production.

Miscanthus species are known as a genus of eco-friendly and low-maintenance cost ornamental grasses. Plug and cutting methods were tested for multi-propagation of most promising ornamental Miscanthus species in greenhouse and field plot. The plug formation period with three different cell sizes with four cultivars (M. sinensis 'Andersson', 'Strictus', 'Gracillimus', 'Variegatus') were evaluated the seedling development stages with two irrigation types of the over-head and the bottom watering in greenhouse and field plot afterward during 2015-2016 season. In seedling plug test, the size of tray cell affected the plug formation. Bottom irrigation resulted positively on plant height, weight, root and tiller development compared with the over-head irrigation. Plug cell size affected the plant growth in the field after transplanting. All of the 3 Miscanthus species showed higher rates of successful propagation at the lower nodes before inflorescence formation (vegetative growth stage). To analyze the survival factors of M. xgiganteus cutting, the cutting time, node part, and culm diameter were tested as independent variables with the binary logistic model. The survival probability was influenced by node part and culm diameter significantly. The third and fifth node parts showed 0.12 (8X higher failure probability) and 0.02 (50X higher failure probability) times less survival probability. It means the survival probability will be increased by using older and lower part of cuttings during a vegetative growth stage before inflorescences of M. xgiganteus.

Seedling of Aralia continentalis is more effective method rather than use of vegetative organ for mass propagation. However, lower germination rate is the main problem for seeding. In this study, we analyzed substances in aim to relate to germination process. The results indicated that longer period of stratification brought lower amount of phenolic compounds in the seeds and both promoting and inhibiting substances were at very low level or gradually disappeared.

A survey of virus infection in garlic plants cultivated in Korea was conducted for three years. Most virus-infected garlic plants (Allium sativum) showed typical symptoms on the leaves such as yellow mosaic, stripes, and distortion. Through immunosorbent electron micro-scopy and RT-PCR analysis, the complex mixtures of viruses including garlic viruses of the genus Allerivirus, gaylic strain of Leek yellow stripe virus of the genus Potyvirus, and Garlic latent virus of the genus Carlavirus were identified in the virus-infected garlic plants. Among these viruses, Allexivirus was the most frequently detect-ed in the regions surveyed. Using sets of differential primers for Allexivirus genomes, two members of the genus were amplified and sequenced from the purified viruses. The deduced amino acid sequences for the coat proteins and the nucleic acid binding proteins of two viruses showed high homologies to Garlic virus A (CarV-A) and Garlic virus D (GarV-D) of Allekivirus. This is the first report of GarV-A and GarV-D in Korea. This suggests that Allexivirus in gavlic plants in Korea was mixed and varied. Phylogenetic analyses showed that the genus Allexivirus was diversi(ied by the processes of accumulation and evolution of viruses in garlic plants due to the long period of repeated vegetative propagation.

'Blue Edge' (Hosta minor) was induced by ethyle methane sulfonate (EMS) to obtain mutants. Among induced leaf variegated hosta plants, some with deep-green color pattern on the edge of the leaves was selected. They were cultivated via vegetative propagation. Assessment of botanical characteristics was conducted for three years since 2003. The major characteristic of these cultivars is that they maintain their deep-green color on the edge of the leaves all year round. These cultivars are useful as materials for pot plant or as ground cover plant.
