Grain yields of errect-leaved corn hybrids were reported to be increased as planting density(PD) increased compared to those of horizontal leaf type hybrids. This trial was conducted to investigate the difference between errect and horizontal-leaved hybrids in response to different PD. Grain yields of both type hybrids were decreased at the highest PD, however, that of horizontal-leaved hybrid, Ga209 ${\times}$ Ki14A, was decreased more than errect-leaved hybrids which indicated varietal difference in response to PD. Responses to PD for days to tasseling, plant height, ear height, and leaf angle were not significant, also, PD ${\times}$ hybrid interactions were not observed. Yield components were decreased as PD increased and there were no PD ${\times}$ hybrid interactions for these characters. Leaf angle was negatively correlated with grain yield and yield components except for kernel weight.

A hypothesis that artificial reforming of corn canopy could improve solar light penetration and dry matter production was tested in corn fields (var. Suwon 19) with three planting densities; low (60 ${\times}$ 40cm), medium (60 ${\times}$ 24cm) and high (60 ${\times}$ 16cm). Natural canopy was found that leaf orientations were even over all azimuth but somewhat inclined toward north-south direction and leaf angle ranged 38$^{\circ}$ to 71$^{\circ}$ from horizontal surface. Reforming corn canopy included following treatments: 1) natural canopy planted in north-south rows (natural canopy), 2)east-west plane canopy planted in north-south rows (E-W canopy), 3)east-west plane canopy and upright leaves in north-south rows, 4)north-south plane canopy (N-S canopy) in east-west rows. After corn plots were installed with training system by supporting poles and connecting wires, corn leaves were induced to a reforming direction and tied on wire. Average light intensity at the mid-point of plant height showed 5-10% increases in E-W canopy and in E-W canopy plus upright leaves, but a 2-10% decrease in N-S canopy from natural canopy. At yellow ripe stage, total dry wt. was increased in E-W canopy but not in N-S canopy. The E-W canopy produced 3-10% more grain yield than natural canopy. Though E-W canopy plus upright leaves yielded less at low density, it yielded up to 10% more at higher density. The N-S canopy yielded similar to low compared with natural canopy. These results suggests that reforming canopy toward solar incident direction increases light penetration into lower canopy, photosynthetic efficiency and grain yield, especially at high planting density in corn.

B. falcatum plants were classified into six groups from group I to grop VI by the complete linkage cluster method depending on 8 charactenstics such as plant height. number of nodes, number of branches, position of the first branching node root diameter, root length, number of lateral root, dry weight of root. These groups are divided into two plants types, such as multi-branching and non multi-branching type by the number of branches, group II and group VI were the multi-branching types and the other groups were nonmulti-branching ones, Dry weight of root had highly positive correlation with the number of branches and negative correlation with the position of first branching nodes.

To investigate the effects of topping method on the yield and major agronomic traits of three varieties differed in plant type of Hibiscus manihot the experiments were carried out Mokpo Branch Station of Crop Experiment Station, in 1993. Fresh weight of root, dry weight of culm, dry weight of capsule and dry matter ratio on root were highest in the long culmed variety, and at the plots with topping of growing point in main culm and branches(Treatment No.3). Considering from the above results, optimum topping method seemed to be topping of growing point in main culm and branches in the long culmed variety.

This study was conducted to investigate the growth characteristics for each of botanical types of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) under vinyl-and non-mulching in cultural limiting region. Ten peanut varieties pertaining to virginia-large seed, virginia-small seed, spanish, valencia, shinpung type were used in this study. Main stem length was in order of valencia, spanish, virginia-small seed, shinpung, virginia-large seed type under vinyl-and non-mulching. By vinyl-mulching, the maximum growth stage of main stem was shortened by 20 days than that of non-mulching. Number of branches per plant was distinguished among botanical types. Numbers of those were virginia-small seed 28, virginia-large seed 27, shinpung 15, spanish 13, valencia 7 under vinyl-mulching and were virginia-small seed 22, virginia-large seed 21, spanish 12, spinpung 12, valencia 5 under non-mulching. The longeset branch length was in order of valencia, spanish, spinpung, virginia-large seed, virginia-small seed type under vinyl-and non-mulching and velencia type was the longest of the botanical types.

By use of three paddy rice lines as the near-isogenic in plant type (Broom, Open, and Spread type in tillering angle), the interspecific competition patterns of rice plants with three important weed species (Cyperus serotinus, Eleocharis kuroguwai, and Potamogeton distinctus) under the three densities of weed standing (0.25 and 50 percent of the rice plants), were observed. Under the experimented conditions, paddy yields were varied more significantly with weed competition descriptions than with plant types of paddy rice. And spread typed rice was more competitive to the detected weed species, however, the broom and spread typed rice were to Potamogeton SP, among others. The result of the clustering analysis of crop-weed competition patterns, estimated by 1-Q mode correlation coefficients, indicated that the first-order component affecting the competition patterns of crop-weed was rather the plant types of rice than either weed species or weed standing densities.

To investigate the model of labor-saving feasibilities in transplanting of paddy rice by reducing of plant-densities with additional application of fertilizer, three isogenic lines of paddy rice in plant type, namely open-spread-and broom-type, were experimented. As a result, the delaying of heading date by intra-specific competition was weakened by increasing of fertilizer applications and this tendency was clear in order of broom-, spread- and open-type, respectively. Also the inter-specific competition was high in broom-type among others. On the other hand, the yields were positively correlated with transplanting densities in open- and spread-type, but no relationships in broom-type. As a conclusion, the reduced planting densities for labor-saving were compensated by additional application of fertilizers as 1.12, 1.21, 1.28 folds of the standard amounts in open-type for equivalent yields, and 1.22, 1.35, 1.40 folds in broom-type, respectively.
