The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) with diesel particulate filter(DPF) on heavy duty diesel engine. The exhaust gas was recirculated to the intake manifold after the smoke was eliminated in the DPF, The major conclusions of this research are i)at each engine speed EGR ratio was able to 60% maximum ii) the amount of NOx emissions was decreased to 90% at high engine load and to more than 60% at low engine load and iii) the amout of NOx emissions was increased to five times according to the increase of engine load but the effect of EGR is more effective at high engine load.

The aim of this study was to establish plant regeneration from leaf explants of Sedum tosaense Makino, which is globally rare and endangered species. The leaf explants of S. tosaense were cultured on the MS medium supplemented with different concentration of BA and NAA for callus induction. Callus induction was showed the highest (100%) on MS medium containing $2.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ BA and $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ NAA. The highest number of shoots were regenerated when callus were cultured on MS medium containing $2.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ BA and $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ NAA for 5 weeks. The axillary bud were cultured on the MS media supplemented with combination of BA and NAA for in vitro propagation. The highest number of adventitious shoot (7.9 per explants) formed at $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ NAA and $2.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ BA. For rooting, MS medium supplemented with or without $2.0g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ activated charcoal was tested. The optimal results were observed using MS medium supplemented with $2.0g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ activated charcoal, on which 85.7 (No. of root), 4.6 cm (length of root). 1,200 ppm $CO_2$ and 350 ppm $CO_2$ were supplied for make certain the effects of $CO_2$ on pre-acclimatization by photoautotrophic culture. 1,200 ppm $CO_2$ treatment was established higher than 350 ppm $CO_2$ treatment. Soil acclimatization of in vitro plantlets was the best in mixture soil consisted of peat moss and perlite with 100% survival rate and they showed the maximum growth.

The effects of cytokinin and putrescine on adventitious shoot induction from leaf explant of Rhodiola sachalinensis A. Bor were investigated. Among cytokinin used in this experiment, BA was more effective on adventitious shoot induction and shoot elongation than kinetin. Especially, 1 mg/L BA was the best to increase adventitious shoot induction (71%) and shoot elongation (3.0 mm). In addition, 100 mM putrescine in MS medium with 1 mg/L BA was higher in adventitious shoot induction (93%) and shoot elongation (3.8 mm) than single treatment of 1 mg/L BA. Adventitious shoots induced in this experiment rooted on 1/2 MS medium and acclimated over 95% on composed soil (peatmoss:sand=1:1).

Taraxacum platycarpum has been used as a medicinal plant. We investigated optimal condition for efficient plant regeneration through adventitious shoot formation on medium with various kinds of growth regulators. Adventitious shoot formation was achieved when cytokinin was used alone. Shoot formation was higher on MS medium containing 2 mg/L BAP compared to that with 2 mg/L kinetin and 2 mg/L 2-ip. Among root, hypocotyl and cotyledon, roots were the best explant for the adventitious shoot induction. Adventitious shoot formation from roots declined markedly by the combination of both 0.1 mg/L NAA and 2 mg/L BAP, while shoot formation from cotyledons was stimulated by the same combination. Root formation from the regenerated shoots was achieved on 1/3MS medium containing 0.2 mg/L NAA. Regenerated plantlets was acclimatized and transplanted to the soil, showing 100% survival.

This experiment was conducted to establish the micropropagation of Calanthe discolor through multiple shoot formation from the culture of leaf, corm and root explants. Frequency of adventitious shoot formation from leaf explants was higher than those of corms and root explants. Frequency of adventitious shoot formation on medium with various concentrations of BA (0. 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0 mg/L) and NAA (0, 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 mg/L) was tested. The maximun induction of adventitious shoot was obtained on half strength Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 3.0 mg/L BA and 1.0 mg/L NAA after 6 weeks of culture. Multiple shoots were transferred onto half strength MS medium with various concentrations of GA3 (0, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0 mg/L). The number and length of multiple shoots on medium were highest on medium with 3.0 mg/L GA3. All the adventitious shoot grew well and rooted on half strength MS medium with 3.0 mg/L NAA. The plantlets were acclimatized up to 100% on sand with TKS-II or pearlite with TKS-II.
