This study investigated methods to improve the quality of Topokkidduk using grapefruit seed extracts and acid regulation agents. Topokkidduk was investigated in terms of its moisture, color, pH, texture, microbial composition, and sensory properties. The moisture content of Topokkidduk was highest for Topokkidduk supplemented with grapefruit seed extracts. The color of Topokkidduk (the L value) decreased, whereas the "a" value increased with the addition of grapefruit seed extracts. The texture of Topokkidduk was affected more by additives than storage temperature. The addition of grapefruit seed extracts and acid regulation agents were effective for the inhibition of microbial activity in Topokkidduk during storage. The overall acceptability values of Topokkidduk (without supplements) were highest among the samples. These results suggest that grapefruit seed extracts and acid regulation agents can be used to control microbial load and moisture levels in Topokkidduk.

To develop an efficient micropropagation technique for Vitex negundo var. insica, which is known as aromatic and medicinal tree, the effects of various plant growth regulators (PGRs) on in vitro shoot proliferation and rooting were evaluated using the newly-developed shoots of a 3-year-old tree. Multiple shoot induction was achieved effectively on WPM (woody plant medium) supplemented with 0.5-2.0 mg/L BA, and the highest shoot number (7.9/explant) was obtained at the concentration of 1.0 mg/L BA. Typically 1 or 2 superior shoots (about 3.4 cm) were induced on hormone-free WPM. Combined treatment of BA 2.0 + GA 0.5 mg/L appeared to effective on shoot proliferation and rooting. Plant growth regulators added in shoot proliferation medium had strong impact on subsequent rooting as well. Overall, shoots induced by BA treatment resulted in high rooting rates while the effect was reduced gradually by ascending BA levels. TDZ of low concentration also revealed a similar tendency as BA, but the rooting ability was strongly inhibited at the concentration of 0.5 mg/L, and rooting was never observed at the concentrations higher than 0.5 mg/L. Combined treatment of BA and IBA had positive influence in both shoot proliferation and rooting. These results suggest that Vitex negundo var. insica could be effectively micropropagated via axillary bud cultures.

Inhibition effects on spore germination and mycelia growth for pepper anthracnose fungi (Collectricum acutatum) were investigated in vitro using eco-friendly agricultural materials as well as ecofriendly pesticides. The inhibition effect on mycelia growth of anthracnose fungi is the highest when the anthracnose mycelia were treated with a pesticide (commercial name: Koreayeok) that contains a mixture of Bacillus subtilis and Panibacillus polymyxa, resulting in 100% inhibition of the mycelia growth. Meanwhile, the range of 20~40% inhibition effects on the growth of anthracnose mycelia was observed with other commercial agricultural materials. The significant inhibition effects on spore formation of anthracnose fungus were shown in vitro with two water dispersible pesticides containing sulfur [BTB (100%) and SulfurStar (95.1%)], Koreayeok (95.0%), Borstar (99.0%) containing Bordeaux mixture, and Jihabudea-KM containing Psedomonas spp. (96.1%), respectively. Taken from these in vitro results of inhibiting of the spore germination and mycelia growth together, Koreayeok is the most effective on control of pepper anthracnose disease in vitro. In addition, two water dispersible pesticides containing sulfur (BTB and SulfurStar) and Borstar (99.0%) containing Bordeaux mixture are also significantly applicable to prevent pepper plants from anthracnose disease in vitro. It remains to be determined whether the selected eco-friendly agricultural materials in effective control of anthracnose in vitro can be used to control pepper anthracnose in field.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of trinexapac-ethyl (TE) and prohexadione-calcium (PC) on the growth and turf quality of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). Treatments were designed as follows; control (non-treatment), TE (TE 0.01 a.i. g·m^-2·100mL^-1), and PC (PC 0.01 a.i. g·m^-2·100mL^-1). Compared with control, turf color index and chlorophyll content of TE and PC treatments were not significantly different. As applied plant growth regulators (PGRs), shoot length in the TE and PC was decreased by 8.9-12.4% and 6.7-13.6%, respectively, and clipping yield by 44.4-45.8% and 40.6-40.9%. When evaluated with the growth of shoot length after applying PGRs, residual days of TE and PC were 43.6 and 37.9 days after treatment of PGRs (DAT) in the 1st experiment (July 29-August 26), respectively, and 38.3 and 39.5 DATs in the 2nd experiment (September 30-October 28). These results indicated that an application of TE or PC decreased shoot length and clipping yield in the perennial ryegrass, and their residual time was about 40±3 DATs. Perennial ryegrass applied with PGRs like TE and PC was not significant seasonal difference, and might be not phytotoxic.

Experiments were conducted to find out the method of reducing viviparous germination of rice seeds using growth regulators during grain filling period. Among the recommended varieties, early Japonica type showed higher rate of viviparous germination, while late Japonica type and Tongil type varieties did not show viviparous germination in field condition. Grain showed high germination ability from 30 days of grain filling period in Daeseongbyeo of Japonica type and 35 days in Taebackbyeo of Tongil type. Growth regulators, NAA, CMH and Reglone were effective for reducing viviparous germination to the two rice varieties and three treatment stages in this experiment. NAA and CMH were most effective at 100 ppm and Reglone was at 0.4-0.6% concentration. Germination rates of rice seed were not different from non-treatment when NAA CMH were treated, while Reglone lowered germination rate. NAA and CMH had no effects on grain filling rate for both varieties, which showed high grain filling rate as the non-treatment, but Reglone results low grain filling rate. Grain color was not changes when NAA was applied, while CMH and Reglone made a lot of grain to dark brown as the concentration became higher. When grain were hulled, NAA had no difference with the non-treatment whereas CMH and Reglone had lower rate of perfect brown rice when they were applied at 20-30 days after heading.

The influence of different growth regulators on biomass of adventitious roots and secondary metabolites accumulation in bioreactor cultures of Eleutherococcus koreanum was studied. The maximum growth of adventitious roots was observed in the presence of $2.0\;\cal{mg/L}$ IBA (6.7 g DW/L). However the productivity of eleutheroside E was not significantly different among IBA levels. High level of thidiazuron (TDZ) efficiently increased both root growth and secondary metabolites production. Especially when $0.1\;\cal{mg/L}$ TDZ was combined with $3.0\;\cal{mg/L}$ IBA, the highest eleutheroside E accumulation ($3,327{\mu}g/g $DW) was observed. When the same TDZ level was treated in combination with $5.0\;\cal{mg/L}$ IBA, both chlorogrnic acid and eleutheroside B were accumulated to maximum level. In contrast, zeatin remarkably suppressed the accumulation of both eleutheroside B and chlorogenic acid.

Callus growth and shoot regeneration of Solanum and Lycopersicon depended on genotype, growth regulators, and thiamine concentration. L. peruvianum LA 1277 and L. peruvianum LA 1373 and PI 251301 had the greatest callus growth while L hirsutum LA 1777, L.esculentum 'Diego'and 'Red Plum' had the least callus growth. Lycopersicon penvianum genotypes were superior to L. esculentur genotypes in regenerating plants. MG medium was more effective in regenerating shoots than MS medium. A low level of IAA (0.2mg/L) and high level of BA (2 mg/L) resulted in the greatest shoot regeneration. Shoot growth varied depending on thiamine concentration and genotype. Shoot proliferation of Solanum ptycathum, Solanum nigrum, and L. peruvianum PI 199380 was best on medium with 20 mg/L thiamine. Regeneration of L. peruvianum PI 251301 and PI 128652 was better on medium with 30 and 10mg/L thiamine, respectively.

Efficient plant regeneration via shoot organogenesis from in vitro cultured leaf segments of chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflora Tzvelev cv. Namjeon) was achieved. Adventitious shoot formation from leaf explants was greatly influenced by plant growth regulator, leaf age, light condition, explant number per culture vessel, and explant orientation. Leaf segments, obtained from fully expanded young 1-2nd leaves and inoculated 8 explants per petri-dish with adaxial surface contact with MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L BA and 2.0 mg/L NAA, produced 100% regeneration frequency and 13.7 shoots per explant. Regenerated adventitious shoots were successfully rooted in MS medium with 0.1 mg/L NAA. The plantlets were acclimatized in artificial soil mixtures (Vermiculite:Perlite=1:1), and transferred to greenhouse for flowering. The regenerated plants showed normal phenotypes.

The twin-scale segments of nerine (Nerine bowdenii) were cultured to investigate the influence of NAA, BA and sucrose concentrations on in vitro bulblet formation. The formation of bulblets from twin-scale segments showed a good response both the percentage of bulblet formation and the number of bulblets per explant on MS medium supplemented with 1mg/L NAA and 2 mg/L BA. Formation of bulblet showed the highest efficiency on medium containing 30g/L, and the formation of bulblets was strongly inhibited on medium containing over 90g/L. When the twin-scale segments formed bulblets were subcultured three times to the same medium by 60 day subculture interval, the number of bulblets per explant was 6.5, 7.3 and 8.2 in order of first, second and third. The bulblets over 3mm in diameter were hypertrophied and rooted after transferring to the hormone-free MS medium. The plantlets over 50mm in height were successfully acclimatized in the soil mixed with the same volume of vermiculite and perlite, and the survival rate was over 95％.
