A morphological study of Korean Fimbristylis was conducted in order to clarify the taxonomical position and scientific names among species. It was determined that the anther size and style length are important characteristics for the species-level identification of Fimbristylis. It was confirmed that Fimbristylis ovata (Burm.f.) J. Kern, which is recorded in the literature but which has no sampling specimens in Korea, grows on the grassland on Marado Island. According to this study, the genus Fimbristylis in Korea is classified into a total of 21 taxa, including four sections, nineteen species, and two varieties.

Methanol extracts from 207 samples of 118 plant species in 44 families were tested for their fungicidal activities against six phytopathogenic fungi. Extracts of Thuja orientalis leaf, Cinnamomum loureirii leaf, Lindera erythrocarpa barks and leaf, Pinus koraiensis wood, Hovenia dulcis wood, Koelreuteria paniculata barks, Styrax japonica wood, Camelia japonica leaf and Cleyera japonica leaf showed very strong fungicidal activity against more than two phytopathogenic fungi at a concentration of 2000 ppm. As a naturally occurring fungicide, these plants could be useful as new fungicidal products against various plant diseases induced by plant pathogens.

Cirsium chanroenicum, Cirsium nipponicum, and Cirsium schantarense plants were collected from Changwon, Ulleungdo, and Dooryoon Mountain, respectively. Cirsium japonicum plants were also collected from various locations in Korea. Genomic DNA was prepared from the collected plants and used for amplification of the 18S rDNA, ITS1, 5.8S rDNA, ITS2, and part of 28S rDNA. The ITS1 and ITS2 sequences of the PCR products and from other Cirsium plants reported previously were aligned and compared. Cirsium chanroenicum, Cirsium nipponicum, and Cirsium setidens formed distinct branches on the neighbor-joining tree. Cirsium japonicum and Cirsium pendulum appeared to be close to one another, but Cirsium pendulum plants were clearly clustered in an independent clade. Cirsium shantarense was clustered with the other Cirsium japonicum plants. The most important characteristic that distinguished these two species was the direction of the flowers. All Cirsium japonicum flowers point upward, but Cirsium shantarense flowers point downward. Other than this feature, these two species are almost indistinguishable morphologically. Cirsium chanroenicum is indistinguishable morphologically from Cirsium setidens, but it still formed a distinct group on the neighbor-joining tree based on ITS sequences, suggesting that this species is worth considering as an independent species. Silymarin production of the collected plants was analyzed and appeared to be quite high, indicating that the ability to synthesize silymarin is common to all Cirsium plants analyzed so far.

During a recent trip to Hainan Island of China, we collected some filmy ferns from Diaoluo Mountain in the southeastern of the island. Trichomanes subclathratum turns out to be a new record to the Hainan fern flora, and also represent new record to China, and Mecodium riukiuense, so far has been unaware to Chinese pteridologists is also recorded here.

Many Cordyceps spp. were collected for excellent strains selection at near Wanju-kun from May to October, 2000. They were identified. As the resulting, They were 2 genera and 4 species. 6 strains were got through 4 species culture. 6 strains are Cordyceps militaris f. albino, C, gracilaides, C. militaris and Isaria japoica. Among them, 4 species used for induction of artifitial fruiting body. 3 strains of them were selected for excellent strains. excellent strains are Cordyceps militaris and Isaria japoica.

Many higher fungi were collectd at Mt. Manduck, Samnye-up, Mt.Mudeung and Youngmun temple near Chonju city. These species were identified. According to the results, Psaythrella obtusata, M-arasmius leveilleanus, Omphalina epichysium Lyphollum gibberosum, Tricholomopsis sasae and Multiclavla clara are newly to Korea.

Two bithiazole-type antibiotics were isolated from the culture broth of a Myxococcus species which isolated from the marine sediment off the coast of Cheju Island, Korea. The structures of these metabolites were determined as KR025 and melithiazole F, previously reported bithiazoles, using combined spectroscopic methods. Both compounds showed an antifungal activity. In in vivo tests, these compounds exhibited potent controlling activities against tomato late blight, wheat leaf rust, and barley powdery mildew with control values more than 80% at a concentraton of 20 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml.

1994~1995년 사이에 대전, 공주, 논산, 부여와 김해 등지에서 채집한 병든 딸기, 토마토, 오이에서 총 1,504 균주의 잿빛곰팡이병균을 분리하여 10 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml의 약제를 넣은 PDA 배지에서 배양하면서 약제반응을 조사한 결과, benomyl에 대하여는 1,147(76.3%)균주, procymidone에 대하여는 614(40.8%)균주, prochloraz에 대하여는 189(12.6%)균주가 저항성으로 나타났다. UV 처리 및 약제 배지에서의 누대배양을 통하여 prochloraz저항성 균주를 선발하였는데, 이들의 생육 억제 최소 농도(MIC)는 8 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml 이상이었고, 감수성균의 MIC는 2 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ml 이하였다. 병원력, 포자 발아율, 균핵형성과 같은 적응력과 관련된 생물학적 특성 비교에서 저항성 균주들은 감수성 균주보다 열등하거나 비슷한 정도로 나타났다.
