This study sought to determine the desiccation tolerance and storage behavior of Sarcandra glabra seeds to assist in the establishment of an ex-situ conservation strategy for the species. The basic germination characteristics of S. glabra seeds were investigated. Subsequently, the seeds were dried to various desiccation levels to allow for analysis of their germination characteristics and seed integrity. In addition, the seeds were subjected to germination tests after being stored for different durations. The initial seed moisture content following the removal of the fleshy fruit was 32.8%, and the fresh seeds maintained their seed viability even after a decrease in the seed moisture content to 4.8%, while the germination percentage was 81.0%. The germination percentage of the seeds decreased to 55.0% and 30.0% when they were desiccated to moisture contents of 2.3% and 2.2%, respectively. By contrast, when the stored seeds were desiccated, they maintained their seed viability and vigor at a moisture content of 18.6%; however, when the moisture content decreased below 5.0%, both the seed viability and vigor significantly declined and the germination percentage fell below 20.0%. Furthermore, analysis of the seed leachate revealed that the decrease in the seed viability and vigor was associated with both increased electrical conductivity and increased concentrations of inorganic compounds such as potassium and calcium. In conclusion, the findings of this study show S. glabra seeds to possess desiccation tolerance that falls somewhere between the recalcitrant and intermediate seed types, with the observed variations depending on the degree of deterioration.

The purpose of this study was to examine the dwarfing effect in variable temperature treatments on 1-year-old and 3-year-old Chloranthus glaber. The plants grown in four difference growth chamber under a mean light intensity $500{\pm}20$ lux, RH of $40{\pm}5%$, and temperature of $5^{\circ}C$, $10^{\circ}C$, $15^{\circ}C$, and $20^{\circ}C$ for 120 days from January 3, 2011. And then they were moved into a glass house (50% shading). In 1-year-old seedlings, the rate of plant height elongation was lowest at $5^{\circ}C$, but plant growth was not good. The number of leaves and leaf width were highly increased by $10^{\circ}C$ treatment although the plant height was slightly increased. Also the plant height of $15^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ was decreased and defoliation was started from the bottom leaves. Thus, $10^{\circ}C$ treatment was thought to be the most appropriate for dwarfing effect of 1-year-old seedlings. In 3-year-old seedlings, the plant height tended to increase with temperature, and growth pattern showed a similar trend between $5^{\circ}C$ and $10^{\circ}C$, $15^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$. The number of leaves increased the most at $5^{\circ}C$. Lateral branches per node were mainly occurred at $5^{\circ}C$ and $10^{\circ}C$, whereas they almost didn't happen at $15^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$. Flowering rate at $5^{\circ}C$ and $10^{\circ}C$ reached more than 90% and 60%, respectively, but it was too low at $15^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ until the end of August. From these results, it could improve plant quality of 1-year-old and 3-year-old Chloranthus glaber making compact potted plants when temperatures were maintained at $10^{\circ}C$ and $5^{\circ}C$, respectively.

죽절초는 높은 광도 보다는 낮은 광도에서 생육이 건전하게 유지되고 광합성률이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로 죽절초가 최적으로 생육할 수 있는 조건은 전광의 약 70%정도로 낮은 광도인 실내환경에서 잘 적응할 것으로 추정되어 실내 조경 식물소재로 도입한다면 좋은 관상수가 될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 식물 생장의 중요 조건 중 하나인 기공전도도 또한 70% 비음처리구에서 가장 높게 나타나 실내 조경식물로 죽절초가 생육하는 경우에 실내의 낮은 광도에서도 원활한 기공개폐가 이루어져서 실내공기 오염도를 낮추는데 중요한 역할을 할 수 있음을 보여주었다.

아열대성 식물 4종 (문주란, Crinum asiaticum var. japonicum; 박달목서, Osmanthus insularis; 죽절초, Chloranthus glaber; 파초일엽, Asplenium antiquum)을 대상으로 자연 환경요인의 변화에 의한 항산화 효소 (superoxide dismutase, peroxidase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase)의 활성과 isoenzyme 패턴의 변화를 전기영동으로 조사하였다. 그 결과, peroxidase의 활성과 isoenzyme 패턴이 식물종이나 환경조건에 따라 가장 다양하게 나타났다. Peroxidase는 4종 모두에서 여름철보다 겨울철에 활성이 높았고 문주란, 박달목서, 파초일엽에서는 겨울철에 특이적으로 발현되는 isoenzyme들도 관찰할 수 있었다. Catalase는 문주란, 박달목서, 파초일엽에서 검출되었다. 문주란 잎에서는 겨울철에 비해 여름철에 다소 높은 활성을 보였으며, 박달목서와 파초일엽에서는 겨울철에 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 그리고 문주란과 박달목서에서는 겨울철에 새벽이나 밤보다 낮시간에 높은 활성을 보였는데 파초일엽에서는 낮시간의 catalase 활성이 낮았다. Superoxide dismutase는 문주란, 박달목서, 파초일엽에서 검출되었으며, 특히 박달목서에서는 겨울철에 높은 활성을 보였다. Ascorbate peroxidase는 문주란과 파초일엽에서 관찰되었으나 계절적으로 큰 차이가 없었으며, 겨울철에는 isoenzyme 패턴의 일주기적 변화가 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과, 종별로는 문주란, 파초일엽에서 4종의 항산화효소가 모두 검출되었고, 박달목서에서는 ascorbate peroxidase가, 죽절초에서는 peroxidase를 제외한 모든 항산화 효소가 검출되지 않았다. 식물종에 따라 또는 환경요인의 변화에 따라 항산화효소의 활성 또는 isoenzyme 패턴의 차이를 보이고 있지만 항산화효소의 계절적 그리고 일주기적 변화가 관찰되어, 본 연구에서 조사된 4종의 아열대성 식물이 자연환경 조건 하에서도 산화적 스트레스에 처하고 있는 것으로 보인다.

아열대성 식물 4종 (문주란, Crinum asiaticum var. japonicum; 박달목서, Osmanthus insularis; 죽절초, Chloranthus glaber; 파초일엽, Asplenium antiquum)을 대상으로 자연 환경요인의 변화에 따른 엽록소형광을 분석하여 이들 식물의 활력도를 검토하였다. 여름철 일변화에 있어서 양지에 자라는 문주란과 박달목서는 Fv/Fm이 새벽과 밤에는 0.80~0.83 범위의 높은 값을 보이지만, 낮시간에는 0.65~0.73으로 낮았다. 1-qN과 1-qP도 낮시간에 크게 낮아졌다. 음지에 자라는 죽절초와 파초일엽의 Fv/Fm은 높아서 0.83~0.85 범위를 유지하였으며 일변화적 특성은 관찰되지 않았다. 1-qP의 변화는 거의 관찰되지 않았으나 1-qN이 낮시간에 다소 감소하는 경향을 보여주었다. 죽절초와 파초일엽에서는 광억제가 거의 일어나지 않으나 문주란과 박달목서에서는 낮시간의 고광에 의한 광억제가 나타난다. 하지만 여기에너지의 일부를 열의 형태로 방출하여 광피해를 완화시키고 있는 것으로 보인다. 겨울철에는 Fv/Fm이 모든 종에서 0.8 이하의 값을 나타내었는데, 특히 문주란의 Fv/Fm 값은 다른 3종 보다 더 낮았다. 그리고 모든 종에서 일변화적인 특성은 관찰되지 않았다. 문주란의 1-qN은 낮시간에 다소 감소하였지만, 나머지 3종의 식물은 높은 값을 나타내었다. 그리고 l-qP는 문주란과 박달목서에서는 낮시간에 0.6 범위로 낮아졌다. 이는 종에 따라 차이가 있지만 겨울철 저온의 영향을 받은 결과로 보인다. 한편, 여름철 문주란과 박달목서의 O-J-I-P곡선은 거의 유사하며 낮에 뚜렷하게 낮았고, 죽절초와 파초일엽에서는 일변화적 특성은 두드러지지 않았다. 그리고 P $I_{NO}$ 와 SF $I_{NO}$ 가 죽절초를 제외한 3종에서 여름철 낮시간에 증가하였다. 겨울철의 O-J-I-P곡선은 모든 종에서 낮시간에 다소 낮아지지만 큰 변화는 없었다. 그리고, 문주란, 박달목서, 파초일엽에서 $\psi$o/(1-$\psi$o)가 낮시간에 다소 증가하였다. 이로부터 P $I_{NO}$ , SF $I_{NO}$ , $\psi$o/(1-$\psi$o)등의 변수는 식물의 활력도를 검정하는 지표로 활용될 가능성이 높다고 할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the reaction in variable light environments on shade tolerant species, Chloranthus glaber. We raised Chloranthus glaber seedlings under four light conditions: PPFD 400, 250, $100\;{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$ and full sunlight (PPFD $1600\;{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$). Using 2 years old seedlings, chlorophyll content, photosynthetic rate, stomata conductance and intercellular $CO_2$ concentration were investigated. Shaded seedlings had higher chlorophyll content, photosynthetic rates, and stomatal conductance, but not higher intercellular $CO_2$ concentration than those in the full sun treatment. This result suggested that growth and physiology of Chloranthus glaber adapted to low light intensity.

The purpose of this paper is to provide reference data about propagation, restoration, and preparation of policy of endangered Sarcandra glabra (Thunb.) Nakai by investigating growth response and variation of ecological niche breadth according to moisture and nutrient under the condition of elevated $CO_2$ concentration and elevated temperature. We divided the investigation into the controlled group and treated group (elevated $CO_2$ concentration and elevated temperature) and then varied the moisture and nutrient treatment for testing. The results showed that the ecological niche breadth was wide at moisture and nutrient gradients of 0.899 and 0.844, respectively, under control. Also, the ecological niche breadth regarding the moisture and nutrient gradients under treatment simulating global warming was wider as 6.60% and 2.09%, respectively. Therefore, moisture and nutrient will not be the restriction factors concerning the growth of Sarcandra glabra under continued global warming. However, it will be advisable to specify the nutrient content condition in the soil to be 10% for population restoration when growing Sarcandra glabra in the green house which is not affected by external environment since the studies of rearing reaction reported that Sarcandra glabra prefer 10% of nutrient content than 0-5%. Furthermore, it is necessary to protect evergreen broad-leaved forest where is the natural habitat of Sarcandra glabra that has relatively high nutrient content.
