Abstract

The flora for resource plants in Hapcheon-gun were investigated 10 times from March to October, 2009. Based on collected voucher specimens, the flora of this area consisted of 489 taxa in total; 82 families, 292 genera, 427 species, 4 subspecies, 49 varieties and 9 forms. The resources plants in the area were categorized by usage into 9 groups including an unknown group: 187 edible, 126 pasturing, 137 medicinal, 112 dyeing, 52 ornamental, 16 timber, 9 fiber, 2 industrial taxa and 134 unknown resource plants were recorded respectively. In addition, there were 18 taxa of Korean endemic plants, 33 taxa of specific plants which were designated by the Ministry of Environment, and 2 taxa of rare plants. Furthermore, 44 taxa of naturalized plants were observed in this investigated area. The vegetation status of the investigated area was well conserved, but it is likely that the contaminated area could be rapidly increased and exacerbated by the climbers and development of forest roads. Therefore, the systems for conservation need to be prepared for the effective management of forests, and there must be special rules to control the number of climbers and visitors.

2009년 3월부터 10월까지 경상남도 합천군일대의 자원식물분포조사를 수행하였다. 본 조사를 통해 확인된 조사지역내의 소산 관속식물은 82과 292속 427종 4아종 49변종 9품종으로 총 489분류군으로 확인되었다. 조사 지역에서 분포하고 있는 식물의 자원 유용도를 분석한 결과, 식용자원식물이 187분류군, 섬유용 자원식물이 9분류군, 약용 자원식물이 137분류군, 관상용 자원식물이 52분류군, 초지 자원식물이 126분류군, 공업원료자원이 2분류군, 염료용 자원식물이 112분류군, 목재용 자원식물이 16분류군, 용도가 밝혀지지 않은 식물이 134분류군로 구분되었다 특기할만한 식물로는 한국 특산 관속식물이 총 18분류군, 환경부지정 특정식물종이 33분류군, 희귀식물은 2분류군으로 각각 조사되었고, 귀화식물은 44분류군으로서 전체분류군의 약 8.9%를 차지하였다. 한편 조사지역의 식생은 비교적 양호한 편이었으나, 레저시설이 형성되거나, 중계소, 사찰 등으로 인한 임도와, 저지대의 많은 농경지로 인해, 귀화식물의 분포가 빠르게 확산될 우려가 크므로 이에 따른 적절한 조치가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
