Vanadium is a trace mineral present in dietary sources, most commonly vegetables. The aim of this study was to investigate the growth and vanadium absorption characteristics of Brassica napus L., Fagopyrum esculentum, and Hordeum vulgare L. using different Jeju water concentrations. The growth of three sprout vegetables and absorption characteristics of vanadium were different depending on Jeju water concentration containing vanadium. In the case of B. napus L. and H. vulgare L., germination rate was inhibited by increasing Jeju water concentration, whereas in F. esculentum, the best germination rate (60.7 %) was obtained at 40 times concentration of Jeju water (vanadium, 1.34 mg/L). For the sprout growth, growth of shoots increased with increasing Jeju water concentration, but root growth was gradually inhibited by increasing Jeju water concentration. For the absorption of vanadium by Jeju water concentration, vanadium was not detected in H. vulgare L. The vanadium contents of B. napus L. and F. esculentum were 4.2 mg/kg and 2.9 mg/kg at 10 times concentration of Jeju water (vanadium, 0.46 mg/L), respectively.

The objective of this research was to investigate the effect of various clay materials on the growth and change in mineral composition of soybean sprout. Further effect of sericite concentration on growth of soybean sprout was optimized. The experiments were carried by using three different viz., loess supernatant, tap water and sericite supernatant. From the obtained results it was found that a significant growth in soybean sprouts was observed while using sericite supernatant this growth was 14.71% and 50% more total growth than that of loess supernatant and tap water. In addition, using sericite supernatant the length of root of soybean sprouts was reached 17.30% and 36.50% longer than that of tap water and loess supernatant. The plausible reason for this growth using sericite supernatant may be due to the presence of various mineral($K^+$, $Ca^+$) in sericite. Further the mineral contents of sericite supernatant were 11.56% and 13.48% more than that for loess supernatant and tap water. Among the various sericite concentration used it was found that 100g/L sericite supernatant showed significant growth rate compared with other fractions. From the obtained results comparing with all materials 100g/L sericite concentration was economic for the cultivation of soybean sprout.

Biopolymer based on microbial ${\beta}$-glucan and xanthan gum is a rising geotechnical material that can enhance the cohesion between soil particles and consequently reduce soil erosion. Recently, biopolymer is proposed to utilize for the riverbank strengthening. As an effort of the ecological assessment of biopolymer application in civil engineering, this study examined the effects of biopolymer on seed germination and growth of nine plant species inhabiting in the Korean riverside. Responses of above-ground growth to the biopolymer differed among plant species. One species grew less but others maintained their growth when plants were grown in the soil with biopolymer. In contrast, root grew more vigorously and root/shoot ratio decreased in the biopolymer across testing plant species. These results indicate that biopolymer application on the river bank likely stimulate root growth of native plant species, which, in turn, possibly reinforces riverbank. Species specific responses of above-ground growth implies that ecological effects of biopolymer application would depend on the species composition of the ecosystem.

Red alder(Alnus rubra Bong.) seedlings inoculated with Frankia only or both Frankia and spores of Alpova diplophloeus(Zeller & Dodge) Trappe & Smith were grown in a greenhouse for ten weeks. The ten-week-old seedlings were fertilized with six nitrogen(N) and phosphorus(P) fertility regimes (no fertilization, 10mM $NH_4NO_3$, 50mM $NH_4NO_3$, 5mM $KH_2PO_4$, 10mM $NH_4NO_3+5mM$ $KH_2PO_4$, and 50mM $NH_4NO_3+5mM$ $KH_2PO_4$) three times a week for ten weeks. The higher N-fertilization significantly increased mycorrhiza formation by greenhouse contaminant mycorrhizal fungi, but decreased N-fixation and P concentration in nodule tissues. P-fertilization significantly increased nodule and shoot dry weight, and P concentration in plant tissues. When N was highly fertilized, however, the P-fertilization effect disappeared in nodule P concentration but doubled in leaf P concentration. A. diplophloeus inoculation significantly increased diameter growth and $CO_2$ exchange rate, but decreased leaf dry weight. Our results suggest that the higher N- or P-fertilization affect nitrogenase activity and mycorrhizal development but the effects are changed by their interactions.

This experiment was conducted to elucidate the effect of plant growth regulators (PGR) on the root -mat formation of infant seedling (8- to 10-day-old seedling) of rice in machine transplanting. The rice seeds of Odaebyeo were socked in water with different concentrations of PGRs for 48 hours at room temperature. Seeding rate was 220 g per seed tray (30x60x3cm). Metalaxyl (25% wettable powder) was used for a fungicide. Generally, the metalaxyl-treated seeds markedly promoted the root growth of the rice seedling, while tetracy-cle, pachlobutrazol and NTN -821 reduced the seedling height and root length, and thickened the shoot diameter at higher concentation levels. Tetracycle decreased root length of the rice seedlings but increased root number per seedling, and root-mat formation was poor. Whereas, metalaxyl concentrations of 200 and 1,000 ppm markedly increased root length and number of root hairs without decreasing root number, thus root-mat formation was excellent. The optimum concentration of metalaxyl seed treatment to increase the root-mat formation of infant seedling of rice was about 200 ppm. Metalaxyl seed treatment could be advanced one to two days of the duration of root-mat formation compared with control.

When the leaf and stem tissues of Rehmannia glutinosa were cultured on MS medium with plant growth regulators, shoots were regenerated on MS medium with TDZ(0.01 to $2.0{\mu}M$), and root initiation was better on MS medium treated with NAA(0.01 to 2.0mg/$\iota$). On $B_5$ medium, shoot regeneration was better on medium with TDZ than those with Quincrac, NAA, and 2.4-D. The addition of Quincrac, NAA, and 2.4-D inhibited shoot regeneration on MS medium, but promoted shoot regeneration on $B_5$ medium. Shoot regeneration and growth was better on MS medium with the combination treatments of 2.4-D 0.01mg/$\iota$ and TDZ 0.01, 0.1 and $2{\mu}M$ compared with other treatments. Also shoot regeneration and growth on B_5 medium showed the similar results to that on MS medium.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of explant sources and plant growth regulators on mass propagation of Cyclamen persicum. Tuber, cotyledon, and petiole tissues were cultured on MS medium supplemented with different concentrations and combinations of auxins and cytokinins. Shoots were not induced from calli on cotyledon and petiole explants cultured on MS medium containing various concentrations of 2,4-D or NAA. However, multiple shoots were formed directly from tuber explants cultured on the medium containing 0.5 and 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D or NAA. In MS medium with cytokinin alone, TDZ was more effective in shoot formation than BA or kinetin in all explants. The combinations of NAA and BA was found to be most effective in shoot formation from tuber, cotyledon and petiole explants. Especially, shoots were formed from all the tuber explants on the medium containing 0.5 mg/L of NAA and BA. Hormonal effects on root formation were examined by subculturing single shoots on MS medium containing NAA or IBA. The medium with 0.5 mg/L IBA was most effective in root induction and subsequent plantlet regeneration.

The purpose of this study was carried out to investigate the effects of plant growth regulators on in vitro propagation of Liliem cernum Komarov. Small bulblets were poliferated from callus explants after 2 weeks and leaf, root and bulb were formed after 4 weeks culture. Leaf differentiation was promoted vigorously by the combination of TDZ 0.1 mg/L and NAA 0.01 mg/L(87.5%). The rate of root differentiation was the greatest at BA 0.2 mg/L alone(81.8%). The rate of callus formation was the high in medium containing TDZ. The number of bulblets and leaves formed in bulb scales was the greatest at TDZ 0.1 mg/L(5.7). Also, the longest length of total length, leaf and root length were in Zeatin 1.0 mg/L + NAA 0.1 mg/L(10.5 cm). However the longest bulblet was in TDZ 0.1 mg/L(1.4 cm).

The objectives of this study were to understand the physiological responses and resistance of red pine trees to ozone exposure in relation to nitrogen and phosphorus fertilization. Potted one-year-old seedlings of Pinus densiflora S. et Z. were exposed in an open-top chamber(OTC) to ozone at concentration of 0.12ppm for 3 hours daily for eight weeks with or without N and P fertilization alone or in combination. The OTC had dimensions of 2.0m in height and 2.5m in diameter, and the air in a control chamber was filtered with activated charcoal to maintain the ozone concentration below 0.02ppm. After eight weeks of ozone exposure, none of the seedlings showed any symptoms of visible injury on leaves. The seedlings fertilized with N and P in a control chamber showed 22 to 95% increase in total dry weight, and similar fertilizer effect was also noticed in an ozone chamber. Ozone treatment did not decrease the total dry weight, but increased shoot/root ratio by 14.5%. Ozone treatment increased sucrose content in the leaves by 23%, but decreased sucrose content in roots by 20% regardless of N or P application. Starch content in the leaves was not affected by either ozone or fertilizer. However, starch content in the roots was decreased by 41% by ozone treatment. Chlorophyll content in the leaves was increased by 70% by N application, but was not affected by ozone treatment. Nitrogen and P fertilization stimulated net photosynthesis by 80% in a control chamber, but stimulatory effect of N and P on net photosynthesis was 22.3% less in an ozone chamber. Net photosynthesis of the seedlings with no fertilization was not affected by ozone treatment. Based on the observed interactions between N, P, and ozone, it was concluded that the stimulatory effect of fertilization on growth of Pinus densiflora would be decreased by ozone treatment, but fertilization would increase resistance to ozone by re-allocation of increased carbohydrates.
