To examine the possibility of enhancing activity of foliar applied herbicides by spray methods and additives, field experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of surfactant, spray volume, and additions of ammonium sulfate or potassium chloride to glyphosate on toxicity to Digitaria sanguinalis or Artemisia princeps. Glyphosate toxicity increased as spray volume was decreased from 120 1/10a to 40 and 80 1/10a. Additions of surfactant in the spray solution increased toxicity of glyphosate to D. sanguinalis and usually more pronounced effect was obtained at glyphosate 30.5g a.i./10a. Additions of 1 and 5% (w/v) ammonium sulfate to glyphosate increased toxicity to A. princeps at glyphosate 30.5 and 61.5g a.i./10a. 10% ammonium slufate, however, had no effect or were antagonistic. Additions of potassium chloride at 1,2 and 3% (w/v) were also very effective to increase herbicidal activity to A. princeps at glyphosate at 30.5 and 61.0g a.i/10a. These results suggest that the practices for enhancement of herbicidal activity by improvement of spray method and additions of ammonium sulfate or potassium chloride to glyphosate can be employed to use lower herbicide levels while giving the same degree of weed control in orchards and non-crop lands.

Herbicidal characterisitcs of natural product chrysophanic acid were investigated in a greenhouse condition. At early- and middle-stage post-emergence treatments, several grasses and broadleaf weeds appeared to be very susceptible to chrysophanic acid. However, any significant herbicidal activity treated by pre-emergence did not occur at concentration ranges from 31.3 to 1,000 ug $mL^{-1}$. Herbicidal activity of chrysophanic acid estimated by visual injury for large crabgrass was much higher when applied at 7 to 14 days after seeding than at 21 and 28 days after seeding. By post-emergence treatment, chrysophanic acid caused very considerable phytotoxicity on several grasses and broadleaf crops. In herbicidal interaction experiments determined by Colby's method, the effect of chrysophanic acid and caryophyllene oxide tank-mixture showed very high synergistic activity. Although chrysophanic acid did not give any pre-emergence effect, herbicidal spectrum tended to be very wide and strong when treated by post-emergence. These results suggest that chrysophanic acid possesses a possible potential to develop as a natural herbicide.

The study was conducted during 1975-1980 to evaluate the performance of several herbicides in controling alternate host, Pedicularis spp., of white pine blister rust disease in forest stands. The results obtained were summarized as follows. 1. It was found that Roundup was effective and most suitable herbicide in the fosest stands except that it accompanied some chemical injuries to neighboring plants. 2. As for the reduction density on the plot treated with Roundup was 100% and 65-91% respectively when investigated one and two years after its treatment on Pedicularis spp. 3. Another four chemicals, 2.4-D, Gramoxone, 2.4. 5-T and Para-col killed stems and leaves of Pedicularis spp. at the year treated, but appeared again next spring. 4. Eradication effectiveness in terms of spraying season was proved to be that late August was better than late May or June.

This study was undertaken to investigate the interrelation between herbicide and insecticide and fungicide on rice (Oryza saliva L.) at various growth stages. Carbamate insecticide BPMC (2-sec-butylphenylmethyl-carbamate) severely inhibited germination of rice when applied alone and in combination with herbicides tested. No germination inhibition was obtained with thio- and dithiocarbamate pesticides. Post-germination growth of rice was severely inhibited by the treatments which were combined with BPMC irrespective of herbicides studied. Phytotoxicity of pendimethalin (3,4-dimethyl-2,6-dinitro-N-1-ethyl propylamine) was reduced by antagonistic effect of organophosphorus compounds. When herbicides were applied with either insecticide or fungicide, post-germination growth of rice was more greatly affected by the concentration of herbicides than that of insecticides or fungicides. Most of herbicide-insecticide or herbicide-fungicide treatments did not cause great phytotoxicity on rice when applied 5 days after transplanting. Foliage activity of phenoxy herbicide 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) and MCPA [(4-chloro-o-tolyl) oxy acetic acid] increased with addition of carbamate and urea pesticides.

Blackgrass and water foxtail are troublesome weeds in a cultivation area of cereals. To know whether water foxtail could substitute for blackgrass as a plant material of screening for the discovery and development of new cereal herbicides, they were compared in a greenhouse and a growth chamber with respect to initial growth characteristics and responses to various herbicides. Blackgrass had a higher germination rate at lower temperature and a higher growth rate at higher temperature as compared to water foxtail. In addition, blackgrass was less sensitive to long day than water foxtail. These results suggest that blackgrass grows better in a cultivation area in spring than water foxtail. As compared to water foxtail, blackgrass showed shightly susceptible responses to herbicides when they were applied to soil surface at one day after seeding. However, the responses to the herbicides of blackgrass and water foxtail were similar with a foliar application of the herbicides at 3 or 4 leaf stage of the plant. Since there were no considerable differences in the herbicidal responses of the two plant species, water foxtail could substitute for blackgrass as a plant material for a primary herbicide screening. When water foxtail was used in a post-emergence screening test, seeding amount of 0.1g/$350cm^2$ and postemergence application of herbicides at 3 to 5 leaf stage were found to be appropriate on the view of alleviating screening efforts in a greenhouse.

A field experiment was carried out to determine the optimum application level of dicamba herbicide for efficient control of Abutilon avicennae in silage corn field. Five treatments of application levels (0 ; control, $0.75{\ell},\;1.0{\ell},\;1.25{\ell}\;and\;1.5{\ell}$) were arranged at National Livestock Research Institute, RDA, Suwon in 1995 and 1996. The hybrid silage corn was P 3352 and dicamba herbicide was applied at 5~6 leaf stage of corn. The growth of corn was poor in control plot, and the days for tasseling and silking were delayed 2~3 days when compared with the plots of herbicide application. The control efficiency of Abutilon avicennae was excellent as 94.7~98.1% in the plots of dicamba application. A slight injury of herbicide was observed at early stage of corn when applied at $1.0{\ell},\;1.25{\ell}\;and\;1.5{\ell}$ of dicamba per ha. Forage dry matter(DM) yield, length and weight of ear in the plots of dicamba treatments were significantly higher than those of control. The DM yield of control(12,070kg/ha) was only 64.2~66.9% of dicamba treatment plot(18,050~18,795kg/ha). However, there was no yield difference among dicamba application level. The percentage of ear to total DM yield was ranged from 53.4 to 56.8%. The nutritive value(crude protein, ADF, NDF, digestibility and TDN) was very similar among all treatments. From the above results, it is recommended that optimum application level of dicamba herbicide was $0.75{\sim}1.0{\ell}/ha$ for efficient control of Abutilon avicennae and for silage corn production without herbicide injury.

In vivo experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of microbial agents on tomato disease occurrences in a sustainable tomato farm in Gong-ju, Chung-nam during 2 years (2010-2011). Two kind of commercial microbial agents (EXTN-1 and Cillus suspension concentrate) and 2 kind of microbial agents (Bacillus subtilis strain 'B4' and 'B17') developing by National academy of agricultural science were used in this study. In the 1st experimental year, the microbial agents were sprayed on leaves for 2-4 times at 1-2 weeks interval from 3 weeks after transplanting, and then disease occurrence were observed. As a result, the control efficacies of commercial EXTN-1 and Cillus suspension concentrate (SC) against gray mold were 59.6% and 50.5% in the treatment of 4 times foliar application at 1 week interval from 3 weeks after transplanting, and the control efficacy of commercial EXTN-1 SC against gray mold was 55.4% in the treatment of 3 times foliar application at 1 week interval from 4 weeks after transplanting. However, the control efficacies of EXTN-1 and Cillus SC were not enough for tomato crop protection against powdery mildew. In the 2nd experimental year, the microbial agents were treated following by the planned combination schedule of transplanting stage drip-watering, early stage root irrigation and early blooming stage foliar application. The control efficacies of EXTN-1 SC and B17 treatment following by transplanting stage drip-watering, 2 times root irrigation at 2 weeks interval root irrigation and 4 times foliar application at 1 weeks interval for gray mold management were 57.0 and 55.1%, respectively. In the case of same treatment for gray mold management mentioned at above, the control efficacies of EXTN-1 SC, B4 and B17 treatment for powdery mildew management were 50.5, 51.3 and 52.5%, respectively.

Commercial formulation of fungicides was studied in the golf course for evaluation against Typhula incarnata causal agents of gray snow mold. Efficacies of fungicides application, fungicide mixture, fungicides applied method (irrigation and spray) and fungicides applied time (early fall and late fall) were evaluated for their influence on the chemical control of gray snow mold of turfgrass during the winter season in Yongpyeong golf course, Korea. Unsprayed control has significantly more disease severity than three fungicides (azoxystrobin, propiconazole, and tebuconazole) were applied to field plots. Effect of three fungicides was over 80% with control value for controlling gray snow mold on Kentucky bluegrass and creeping bentgrass species. Effect of fungicide mixture with different family groups had an over 93% control value of gray snow mold on Kentucky bluegrass species. It was not significantly difference in fungicidal effect according to applied method (irrigation and spray) with azoxystrobin on Kentucky bluegrass and creeping bentrasss species. Effect of fungicides applied time was a significantly difference on disease control by tebconazole early fall spray.

This study was conducted to develop a foliar applied herbicide mixture covering wide spectrum weeds in dry direct seeded rice. Uniform precision central composite design(UPCCD) was employed to evaluate the effect of herbicide mixture among cyhalofop-butyl(cyhalofop), bispyribenzoxim and pyrazosulfuron-ethyl(pyrazosulfuron) having different weed control spectrum and to determine the best application rates of the three herbicide mixtures. The partial additive effect was observed in the mixture of cyhalofop and bispyribenzoxim with pyrazosulfron against Echinochloa crus-galli Beauv var crus-galli L., attributed to the negative interaction between cyhalofop and bispyribenzoxim system. Additive effect was observed in the mixture of bispyribenzoxim and pyrazosulfuron against Cyperus serotinus R. and Aneilema keisak H. but cyhalofop had no effect on these weeds. The most appropriate rate of the mixture of cyhalofop with bispyribenzoxim and pyrazosulfuron was 100 : 12 : 10g ai/ha exhibiting $ED_{90}$ against three weeds such as E. crus-galli, C. serotinus and A. keisak.

To establish the weed control in transplanted bed of Pinus koraiensis and Larix leptolepis, alachlor, simazine, terbutryn, pendimethalin, oxyfluorfen and amitrol/2,4-D/methabenthiazuron (ustinex) were used by soil treatment and foliage application at 7days after transplantion of seedling. From the of soil treatment, grasses such as Dimeria ornithopoda, Alopecurus aequalis, Agropyron tsukushiense and Setaria verticillata were effectively controVed by 85 to 90% at the respective recommended rate of oxyfluorfen, alachlor and terbutryn. At the application rate of recommentation simazine, oxyfluorfen, pendimethalin and terbutryn respectively controlled 70 to 80% of broad-leaved weeds such as Erigeron annuus, Portulaca olearcea, Cerastium arvense, Capsella bursa-pastoris, Commelina commuis, Chenopodium hybridum and Stellaria alsine. Ustinex and oxyfluorfen were very effective for the control of perennials such as Artemisia princeps and Calystegia japonica. Initial sympton of phytotoxicity and decrease of growth in P. koreaiensis and L. leptolepis were not found by soil treatment and those in P. koraiensis was not shown by foliage application of all tested herbicides. But L. leptolepis foliage-applied with ustinex, oxyfluorfen, terbutryn and pendimethalin was great in early phytotoxicity and severe in growth inhibition.
