Sequences of the trnL/F intergenic spacer of chloroplast DNA were used to investigate the intraspecific evoution and phylogeography of Sedum takesimense (Crassulaceae). The trnL/F intergeneric spacer sequences from 32 individuals of S. takesimense were either 291 bp (17 samples "without indel" in the following) or 297 bp (15samples "with indel 1") in length due to an indel of 6 bp. Two main cpDNA haplotypes were detected within S. takesimense. The haplotype with indel was found on Ulleung Island and without indel on Ulleung Island and Dok Island. This confirmed the existence of two cpDNA lineages with different geographical distributions. The cpDNA sequence analysis also suggested a putative long-distance dispersal event between Ulleung Island and Dok Island.

This experiment was carried out to find out proper culture soil for the flowerpot cultivation of Sedum kamtschaticum. Peatmoss was used for the culture soil. pH of the culture soils were adjusted to 4.5, 5.0, 5.5 and 6.0 using calcium hydroxide. Young plants of Sedum kamtschaticum were planted in the pots of 10cm in diameter. The experiment was conducted by the completely randomized design with 3 replications. Growth characteristics were investigated at intervals of 30 days after planting. As the pH of culture soil is lower, growth of Sedum kamtschaticum showed longer plant height and more number of leaves and branches. pH 4.5 to 5.0 appeared to be optimum range as soil reaction of Sedum kamtschaticum cultivation.

This study was conducted to investigate the potentiality of various Korean Sedum species as ornamental plants based on morphological characteristics and to analyze the genetic relationship among the Sedum species. S. kamtschaticum and S. takesimense possessing splendour flowercluster with yellow color could be suggested for garden plant, S. routundifolium having pink flower-clusters with round leaf shape for pot flower or garden plant and S. sarmentosum, S. polystichoides and S. oryzifolium with creeping stem and low plant height for ground cover plant or floral carpet. Eighteen oligonucleotide random primers were used to amplify genomic DNA of Sedum species using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Ninety five polymorphic bands among 125 different DNA fragments in the range of 224 to 3,675 base pairs were obtained from RAPD analysis. Similarity matrix of RAPD profiles was generated by coefficient value of variation, and the data were subjected to be cluster analysis. Fifteen lines of Sedum species analyzed were classified into 3 groups with the similarity coefficient value of 0.418, and 12 groups with the value of 0.328. RAPD results showed similar trends as the morphological characteristics of the plants.

In this study, the resistance to ozone and characteristics of ozone-induced damage were investigated on the perennial ground cover plant species. Sedum kamtschaticum and Hosta longipes were exposed to $200{\mu}g{\cdot}kg^{-1}$ ozone for 8 hours per day (from 08:00 to 16:00) in the naturally irradiated phytotron. The extent of ozone-induced damage was measured through the analysis of physiological parameters, such as water use efficiency (WUE), chlorophyll content (Chl. a, Chl. b, Chl. a + b, and Chl. a/b ratio), carotenoid contents, and the induction of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Ozone exposure significantly reduced the daytime WUE in both species. The contents of chlorophyll and carotenoid were also decreased and ROS, such as hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) and superoxide radical ($O_2{^-}$) were accumulated after ozone exposure. The above results of this study suggested that S. kamtschaticum is more resistant to atmospheric ozone than Hosta longipes. Considering its fast responses to ozone, it was also assumed that Hosta longipes can be used as an indicator plant of an increase in atmospheric ozone concentration.

Sedum kamtschaticum has been used as one of the native valuable plants for ornamental purpose. This experiment was conducted to find out the optimum media for pot cultured Sedum kamtschaticum using peatmoss and coir-based mixtures. Four mixtures such as peatmoss:perlite(5:5, v/v), peatmoss:perlite(7:3, v/v), coir:perlite(5:5, v/v), and coir:perlite(7:3, v/v) were used. Plants were irrigated with a Sonneveld solution in an ebb & flow system. The content of T-N, K, and Ca in the peatmoss-based media was higher than those of the coir-based media. The concentration of T-N, K, and Ca in the shoots of Sedum kamtschaticum increased when plants were cultured with peatmoss-based media. In the peatmoss-based media, plant growth, such as number of branches, leaf length and shoot fresh and dry weights, were significantly increased than those of plant grown in the coir-based media. As the results, the optimum media for pot cultured Sedum kamtschaticum in an ebb & flow system was considered to be the peatmoss-based mixtures.

This study was carried out to select suitable plants for beach revegetation as a preliminary study for quantifying the effect of decreasing sand movement. After planting some herbal plants in field, monitoring of temporal change of vegetation coverage which was index of the growth rate was conducted. Through literature reviews, 24 candidate plants for beach revegetation were selected, then seven species of them, Peucedanum japonicum Thunb., Dianthus japonicus Thunb. ex Murray, Sedum oryzifolium Makino, Sedum takesimense Nakai, Sedum spectabile Boreau, Farfugium japonicum (L.) Kitam., Aster sphathulifolius Maxim. were picked through salinity tolerance experiments in laboratory. Seven species selected by salinity tolerance experiments and two additional herbal plants, Prunella vulgaris var. lilacina Nakai and Linaria vulgaris Mill., not the candidates, were nine final species which were planted in the beach around Osan port, Uljin, Korea. The changes of vegetation coverage of each species were investigated from photos periodically taken for about a year using image processing methods. As a result of the monitoring, Sedum takesimensei, Dianthus japonicus and Aster sphathulifolius were observed with high coverages during the whole monitoring while Prunella vulgaris var. lilacina and Linaria vulgaris were observed with low coverage during the same period. Consequently, Sedum takesimensei, Dianthus japonicus and Aster sphathulifolius were concluded as the most suitable plants for beach revegetation. Furthur study to quantify the effects of decreasing sand movement by the selected species is needed.
