마편초과의 좀목형 엽에 함유된 물질의 allelopathy 효과를 구명하기 위해 수용성 엽 추출액, 메탄올 엽 추출액, 엽 분말과 토양과의 혼화된 pot에 각각 상치, 이탈이란라이그라스, 개솔새, 억새 종자를 발아실험하여 발아억제물질을 분석한 결과는다음과 같다. 1. 좀목형 엽 분말을 증류수에 각각 24, 48, 72 시간 침지 후 추출물에 상치, 이탈리안라이그라스, 개솔개, 억새 종자를 파종한 후의 발아율은 각 처리구마다 대조구마다 높은 발아억제를 보였고, 48시간 침지시에는 각각 26.9%, 58.8%, 6.6%, 22.2%의 발아율을 보여 강한 발아억제현상르 보였다. 2. 좀목형 엽 분말을 메탄올 75%에 24, 48시간 침지 후 추출물에 이탈리아라이그사스, 개솔새, 억새 종자를 파종한 후의 발아율은 48시간 추출액때 각각 33.3%, 15.4%, 7.7%를 보여 48시간 수용성 추출액과 24시간 메탄올 추출액보다 강한 발아억제효과가 있었다. 3. 좀목형 엽 분말과 Vermiculite를 1: 99.5: 95, 10:90, 20:80(w/w)으로 구분한 pot에 공시수종을 파종한 결과 엽 분말의 비율이 높을수록 발아억제효과가 컸으며, 엽 분말이 20%인 경우 발아된 부분의 건중량의 비율은 실험구와 대조구간에 비교한 발아율의 비율보다 훨씬 낮아 생장억제효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 4. Column chromatography의 TLC를 이용하여 최종 7 fraction을 찾고 생물검정 결과, 5, 6번 fraction에 강한 활성을 나타냈다. 5. UV 와 IR분광분석 결과 UV 분광분석은 256 nm과 336nm에서 흡수 최대를 나타내었으며, 이들은 시르시트시약을 사용하여 검토한 결과 7위에 에테르 결합한 전형적인 플라본류로 추정되었고, IR 분광분석 결과 지방족에 에테르결합이 존재하는 것으로 생각되었다. 6. Py-GC-MS 분석으로부터 5, 6 fraction의 경우 플라본류에 1개의 당이 결합한 배당체 구조이고 B환의 경우 1개 또는 2개 이상의 페놀성 수산기의 존재가 예상되었다.

Vitex negundo is an aromatic plant which releases a unique scent due to the presence of essential oil stored presumably within glandular trichomes. The focus of this research was to study developmental patterns of glandular trichomes in Vitex negundo leaves using electron microscopy. There are two types of glandular trichomes which develop on the leaf epidermis of Vitex negundo, peltate glandular type (PT) and capitate glandular type (CT). Structural features differ significantly depending on size and density, formation of secretory cavity, plastid, etc during developmental stages. In young leaves, undifferentiated PTs are densely distributed in the upper epidermis, but are not externally exposed in the lower epidermis because they are covered by non-glandular simple trichomes. Upon leaf development, PTs and CTs show clear structural differentiation in the upper and lower epidermis. PTs are composed of up to eight head cells (ca. 35~40 ${\mu}m$) and one stalk cell (ca. 5 ${\mu}m$), while CTs are composed of four head cells (ca. 10~15 ${\mu}m$) and 1~2 stalk cells (ca. 10 ${\mu}m$). Although secretory cavities develop on the secretory head cells, their size, structure, and formation proceed very differently depending on trichome type. In early development of PT, a large cavity with numerous secretory vesicles form rapidly from the head cells. In CT, however, only a small secretory cavity is formed, slowly relative to PT, without secretory vesicles. The PTs are considered to play an important role in releasing the aromatic components of Vitex negundo.

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.

Plants of Vitex negundo are known to develop numerous trichomes throughout their body, where certain trichome types have been believed to be one of the plausible structures for the unique scents. In the current study. structural aspects of the trichomes have been examined in leaves and stems of Vitex negundo using TEM and SEM. Trichome types as well as structural changes that occurred in certain trichomes during secretion have been mainly focused. Three type of glandular trichomes and two types of non-glandular trichomes were developed in the epidermis of young and mature Vitex negundo plants. The glandular trichomes included the peltate type (Type 1), the capitate type (Type 2), and degraded capitate type (Type 3), whereas the non-glandular warty trichomes contained the multicellular (Types 4) and unicellular type (Type 5). Type 1 and 2 consisted of head and stalk cells, but their number and size were different. One secretory cavity was formed from the four head cells in the former, but only two head cells were involved in the latter. The cytoplasmic density in the head cell was quite high and in particular, sER and Golgi bodies were well developed. At initiation of their development, the cuticle layer of the head cells separated from the outer tangential wall to form a secretory cavity. Subsequently the cavity expanded acropetally and a large number of secretory vesicles continuously produced from the head cells until they filled the entire cavity. The cavity contained materials that would be soon discharged into intercellular spaces and/or into the air. The cavity began to decrease the volume by contracting at initial secretion but degrade rapidly within short time. It has been suggested that the mode of secretion in V. negundo is probably the eccrine secretion, since no break or rupture of the cavity has been observed during examination. Contrastingly Type 3 exhibited deterioration of the head cell at early stage. Type 4 was about $110{\sim}190{\mu}m$ long, consisting of $2{\sim}3$ cells, and distributed more in the adaxial epidermis compared to the abaxial surface. However, $20{\sim}30{\mu}m$ long Type 5 was extremely dense in both epidermis. Among several trichome types, Type 1 and 2 probably play an important role in discharging unique aromatic scents in plants of V. negundo.
