This work is for selecting superior media which is similar to Peat Moss that is in general use as media of Gymnocalycium mihanovichii for Export such as 'Hwang wall' but lower price. The result on growth of 7 kinds of media (Peat Moss, BM6 Culture Medium, Coco Peat, Hydro Cray, Hydro Ball, Hugato, Vermiculite) which are applied watering (overhead irrigation, sub irrigation) based on bichemical analysis including chemical, physical analysis are following. The result of bi-chemical analysis shows that Coco Peat was stabilized planting after 90 days and Hydro Ball has high water holding capacity. The experimental result of growth in grafted cactus 'Hwangwall' shows Coco Peat is similar to Peat Moss on organic matter and in case of inorganic media, Hugato, Vermiculite, Hydro Cray made satisfactory results. But, the weight of inorganic media is too light to be tied. Consequently, Coco Peat and sphagnum moss as organic media has lower price and the condition of growth is analogous to Peat Moss. On the other hands, Hydro Ball was chosen as a substitute of Peat Moss in inorganic media.

Insect pests were surveyed in 5 Rice paddy field areas of Organic paddy field and conventional paddy field. At the each rice-growth period, the occurrence rate of 'Small brawn plant hopper was high at the case of duck raising and rice bran farming on middle stage of rice paddy field in Gang-Hwa region. The occurrence rate of Rice water weevil was high at the conventional paddy field on the early stage of rice paddy field in Yeo-Ju region. In the Hong-Seong region, the occurrence rate of 'Rice water weevil' and 'Green rice leafhopper' was high at the 'duck raising compare to the conventional farming on the early stage of rice paddy field. According to each period, the occurrence rate of insect was high at late stage of rice paddy field, and there was no difference between each region. It showed high-occurrence tendency at duck pasture farming rice paddy field. The major natural enemies were spiders and parasites. Theridiidae and Linyphiidae were highly occurred on the conventional farming rice paddy field in Hong-Seong. Web builders containing Theridiidae, Linyphiidae and Tetragnathidae was occurred more than wandering spiders containing Lycosidae, Clubionidae and Pisauridae at various regions, and then occurrence of spiders was different at the various regions but was not different at each farming system.

This research was carried out to investigate invertebrate fauna with organic and conventional pear orchards, which used four collected methods; soil sampling for soil microorganism, pitfall, malaise, and black light trap for over ground species. Collected species were 37 species, 1,184 individuals in organic and 28 species, 501 individuals by soil sampling in conventional pear fields. Those were 38 species, 646 individuals and 29 species, 440 individuals by pitfall trap, 55 species 650 individuals and 47 species, 508 individuals by malaise trap, and 23 species, 201 individuals and 9 species, 42 individuals by black light trap. Collembola was collected 389 individuals in organic which was 5 times than in conventional in soil sampling. In pitfall trap, that was 183 individuals which was 3 times. The diversity indices of organic pear orchards were 1.956 in May, 2.638 in August and those of conventional was 1.426 in May, 2.011 in August in soil sampling. In pitfall trap, the dominant species were spiders, collembollan, and coleopteran. Among Coleoptera, indicator insects for the evaluation of agricultural environment suggested were Eusilpha jakowelewi as organic pear orchard and Anisodactykus punctatipennis and Pheropsophus jessoensis as conventional. Malaise trap was collected dominant species as Diptera and Hymenoptera of Braconidae and Ichneumonidae. The diversity indices of organic pear orchards were 2.952, 3.120, and 2.010 in pitfall, malaise and black light trap in over ground invertebrate sampling. The highest diversity was in malaise trap. The higher diversity indices, the lower dominance indices.

Diseases were surveyed in 5 Rice paddy field areas of Organic paddy field and conventional paddy field. The 3 major diseases, rice leaf blast, bacterial leaf blight and sheath blight in rice were surveyed at duck raising, rice bran and conventional rice paddy field. They were serious in duck raising paddy field, rice bran paddy field more than conventional paddy field. The Ilpum variety were infected seriously more than Chucheong. At the effectivity test of the environment-friendly substance for the rice-seed sterilization, 1000-times diluted brown-rice vinegar showed controlling effect against Bakanae disease, and germination rate also was good. There was no Weeds Control efficacy by cultivating of hairy vetch in rice paddy field. However, extract of hairy vetch Leaf and root repressed the germinating of lettuce seed.

To establish the system of in uitro plant regeneration, the leaf segments of Sedum sarmentosum were cultured on MS media supplemented with different levels of 2,4-D, NAA and BA. The callus induction and growth showed a good response on MS medium supplemented with 3.0mg/L 2,4-D and 1.0mg/L BA, but a few callus induced on medium containing NAA and BA. In plant regeneration, combination of BA and NAA promoted shoot organogenesis from callus, and the highest frequency was obtained on MS medium supplemented with 0.2mg/L NAA and 3.0mg/L BA. When calli were transferred to the plant regeneration medium containing 0.2mg/L NAA and 3.0mg/L BA, healthy shoots without hyperhydricity were continuously induced (17.2 plantlets per callus) after 50 days of culture. When regenerated plantlets were transferred onto hormone-free MS medium, rooting was easily achieved from all of them.

In order to investigate the effects of added magnetized water on the callus induction and plant regeneration in rice, 700G(G=Gauss) magnetized water were used. The callus in-duction and plant regeneration of rice in magnetized water treatment are different from the callus induction and plant regeneration in ionic water treatment. The rates of callus induction in magnetized water media were 27.3% in solid media and 15.4% in liquid which were compared to that of callus induction in the ionic water media 21 and 13.3%. Also plant regeneration frequency in the magnetic water media is 5.4% better than that of the ionic water media. And dissolved oxgen amount of magnetic culture media is from 0.1 ppm to 0.9 ppm more than that of ionic culture media. The pH value was increased with rising of water temperature, and the magnetic water was effected at increasing of pH value.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of IAA and kinetin on induction of gemmae and gametophytes in Hypnum plumaeforme moss during tissue culture. Explants were obtained from sterilized gametophyte tips cultured on solid basal medium containing Knop's major salts and Nitsch and Nitsch's trace elements. After culture, inoculated gametophyte tip produced protonema firstly, changed to new gametophytes after four weeks. Aseptic gametophytes were chopped and inoculated on the same media containing 0.01, 0.1, 1 and $10{\mu}M$ of IAA and kinetin. As a result, secondary protonemata as well as protonemal gemmae were formed from gametophytes. But protonemal gemmae formation was varied according to the concentration of IAA and kinetin. Lower concentration of IAA and kinetin promoted gemma formation and bud induction. Especially, $0.01{\mu}M$ of kinetin showed the highest frequency of bud and gemma production. All the materials, obtained from $0.01{\mu}M$ kinetin medium, were subcultured to media supplemented with 0.01, 0.1, 1 and $10{\mu}M$ of IAA and kinetin again to induce gametophytes. After subculture, protonema and calli were developed from secondary protonema, and induced gametophytes finally. IAA regulated induction and growth of gametophytes, and kinetin influenced gemma formation and gametophyte induction also. All aspects of development of this moss species were governed by the external growth regulators.

In this study, we selected an Escherichia coli strain (E. coli MG 1655) metabolizing arabinose derived from acid hydrolyzed black liquor as a carbon source and investigated effect of organic acids (acetic acid, formic acid, and lactic acid) presented in black liquor on growth of the E. coli MG 1655. We measured growth of E. coli MG 1655 under various concentration of each and combined three kinds of organic acids. The E. coli MG 1655 shows tolerance to acetic acid, lactic acid and formic acid at these concentrations ($1.0g/{\ell}$ acetic acid, $1.2g/{\ell}$ lactic acid and $0.8g/{\ell}$ formic acid, respectively), but displays some growth retardation over $1.5g/{\ell}$ acetic acid, lactic acid $2.0g/{\ell}$, and formic acid $1.2g/{\ell}$, respectively. In addition, formic acid was shown to be a critical factor affecting growth of the E. coli MG 1655 in the presence of three kinds of organic acids. These results indicate that the inhibitors should be removed at least $1.0g/{\ell}$ of acetic acid, $1.2g/{\ell}$ of lactic acid, $0.8g/{\ell}$ of formic acid for normal cell growth required for high yield fermentation. In addition, there is a need to construct recombinant strains that may be resistant to the same or higher organic acids concentration (> $1.2g/{\ell}$) in the growth.
