Karyotype analysis and chromosomal localization of 5S and 45S rDNAs using FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization) technique were carried out in Nicotiana plumbaginifolia. Somatic chromosome number of N. plumbaginifolia was 2n=20 and kyarotype was composed of three pairs of metacentric chromosomes (1,2 and 7) and seven pairs of submetacentric chromosomes (3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 and 10). Length of chromosomes was ranged from 2.29 to 4.50 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Chromosome 1 and 2 were identified as satellite chromosomes. In FISH experiment, one pair of 5S rDNA signals was detected on the centromeric region of chromosome 2 and one pair of 45S rDNA signals was detected on the terminal region of chromosome 1.

This study examined the effects of delayed harvest of Miscanthus on its biomass yield and growth characteristics. The trial was conducted at a 5-year-old demonstration field, using Miscanthus sacchariflorus cv. Geodae 1 and Miscanthus ${\times}$ giganteus. Harvesting was carried out using a mower, baler, and bale picker driven by a 5-ton tractor. Harvesting dates were the $1^{st}$, $10^{th}$, and $17^{th}$ of April, which respectively corresponded with the first, mid, and last emerging dates of new shoots. The sequential changes in stem number due to delayed harvesting were investigated on April $29^{th}$, May $27^{th}$, July $22^{nd}$, and October $30^{th}$, which corresponded to the juvenile, mid, luxuriant, and senescence stem stages, respectively. Soil penetration resistance, biomass yield, and growth characteristics were investigated on October $30^{th}$. There was no difference in soil penetration resistance at a depth of 10 cm, but it increased at a depth of 20 cm in proportion to the delayed harvesting time. The sequential change in stem number due to delayed harvesting was greater in M. sacchariflorus cv. Geodae 1 than in M. ${\times}$ giganteus. In M. sacchariflorus cv. Geodae 1, which was harvested on the last emerging date of new shoots, the stem number was $169/m^2$ in the mid stage but decreased to $70/m^2$ in the luxuriant stage. The diameter of newly developed rhizomes, stem height, and biomass yield decreased in the two Miscanthus species due to delayed harvesting. The ratio of Miscanthus headings, which is a critical characteristic for landscape use, also decreased due to delayed harvesting. Heading of M. sacchariflorus cv. Geodae 1 was not observed in plots harvested on the mid and last emerging dates of new shoots.

By treatment(dropping) of 0.1~0.4% colchicine solution on the sprouts of winter buds of hard wood cutting slips for 4~5 days, two lines of artificial autotetraploids from Yongchonppong and one line from Yeongbyonppong were bred and the important cultivative characteristics of those new lines were as follows. The greentip sprouting stage of the new bred lines in spring season is later than the parental varieties by two days, but growth speed of the new lines after sprouting was faster than that of the parental varieties reaching the same level development with the parental varieties at the fifth leaf sprouting stage to be mid varieties same as the origins. The leaf shape of the new bred lines was wide round and the petioloes were long and thick. The thickness of leaf was thicker than the parental varieties by 17-33% and single leaf weight was heavy. The leaf area weight increased by 21-31% and the content of chlorophyll was also higher by 11-33%. With all the characteristics, the new breds produced good quality of leaves. The length and number of branches were shorter and less, respectively, than the parental varieties, but the internode length was either same or longer than the parents. Looking at the characteristics, the constitution of shoots was slightly inferior to the parental varieties. The cold hardness expressed by the death top rate of Sawonppong 23 and Sawonppong 24 was same level as that of Yongchonppong, but Sawonppong 25 was stronger than Yeongbyonppong in it with a high infection rate of dwarf disease. The productivity was lower than the parental varieties, but young shoot rate to shoot and branch and the ratio of leaf to young shoot were higher than the parental varieties. The fertility of Sawonppong 23 and Sawonppong 24 was comparatively high with 62% of cross success, but that of Sawonppong 25 was low with 23.9% of cross success.

Present study was aimed to summary the recent reports of chromosomal technology such like a polyploidv, sex differentiation, gynogenesis, transgenic fish and gene manipulation. Triploid cells for rainbow trout and channel catfish were induced through thermal shocks of varying temperature levels and produced as a industrial use. A monosex fish with homogametic females of 15 species of high valued fish were produced by exposing to irradiation. It seemed that different irradiation was suitable to inactivate the sperm and block the formation in producing the gynogenetic diploids. Since 1985, transgenic fish have been successfully produced by microinjecting or electroporating desired foreign DNA into unfertilized or newly fertilized eggs using about 40 fish species. More recently, transgenic fish have also been produced by infecting newly fertilized eggs with pantropic, defective retroviral vectors carrying desired foreign DNA. These transgenic fish can serve as excellent experimental models for basic scientific investigations as well as in marine biotechnological applications.

Bulbosum method, which haploids are developed by pollinating with H. bulbosum have been productive to be recommended as an effective method for the production of genetically stable normal barley hybrids. The purpose of this study is to investigate several characters of H. bulbosum, seed set and embryo development rate pollinated with H. bulbosum in order to establish a method for improvement of embryo development and to find conditions favoring plant development from the embryos cultured in vitro. Three lines of H. bulbosum used as pollinators: GBC(2${\times}$), Spenish diploid(2${\times}$) and var. Jaaska (4${\times}$) were morphologically similar, having characteristically narrow leaves, narrow and long culms, long spikes and anthesis duration in comparison with H. vulgare. H. bulbosum, var. Jaaska(4${\times}$) on being pollinated to barley cultivars, increased embryo formation by 8% and plant development in vitro by three times compared to the other diploid lines. the plants developed were not normal barley hybrids but had some H. bulbosum chromosomes uneliminated, indicating that the line was unstable as a pollinator to induce barley haploids.

억새(Miscanthus spp.)는 우리나라 등 동아시아가 원산이며 바이오매스량이 많아 바이오에너지 원료작물로서 잠재성이 크기 때문에 2세대 바이오에탄올 생산 원료로 주목을 받고 있고, 축산깔개 및 토양개량제 등으로도 이용되고 있다. 미국과 유럽 등에서는 생태계 교란 방지를 위해 4배체 물억새(M. sacchariflorus)와 2배체 참억새(M. sinensis)의 종간 교잡 이질 3배체인 불임성 억새(M. x giganteous)을 주로 재배하고 있으나, 단일 유전형의 품종으로 병해충과 자연재해에 취약하여 다양한 억새 품종의 개발이 시급한 실정이다. 본 연구는 억새를 재료로 하여 반수체 및 배수체 확보를 통한 배수성 별 특성 평가와 함께 기내배양을 통해 탈분화 및 재분화 시스템을 구축하여 억새의 육종 효율을 높이기 위해서 실시하였다. 억새 종자로부터 캘러스의 유도는 MS배지와 N6배지에 1mg/L 2.4-D를 첨가하였을 때 비배발생 캘러스(nonembryogenic callus)가 유도되었고, N6배지에 3~5 mg/L 2,4-D를 첨가하였을 때 배발생 캘러스(embryogenic callus)가 발생하였다. MS배지보다는 N6배지에서 캘러스 유도율이 높았으며, 식물생장조절제로 2,4-D와 BA 조합처리 보다 2,4-D 단용 처리하였을 때 캘러스 유도율이 더 높았다. 억새 종에 따른 캘러스 유도율은 물억새가 25.2~49.3%, 참억새는 30.3~52.0%였고 거대억새는 62.6~81.1%로 나타났다. 억새 신초 및 줄기로부터의 캘러스 유도율은 물억새가 4.4~17.2%, 참억새는 1.8~7.7%, 거대억새는 15.3~19.9%로 나타나 종자에 비해 매우 낮았다. 미성숙화기로부터의 캘러스 유도는 억새 종에 따른 차이가 없었으며, 3mg/L 2,4-D 첨가 배지에서 캘러스 유도율이 비교적 낮았고(60~80%), 1mg/L와 5mg/L의 2,4-D가 첨가된 배지에서 캘러스 유도율이 높게(90~95%) 나타났다.

Pollen-derived embryos cultured on the hormone-free medium showed a low germination frequency (12.5%) and poor growth response after germination. The greatest frequency of germination (81.3%) was obtained from the embryos cultured on medium with 0.3mg/L GA$_3$.The greatest frequency of generation (81.3) was obtained from embryos cultured on medium with 0.3mg/L GA$_3$. The embryos precultured for 20 days on medium with 0.3mg/L GA$_3$were transferred to the medium with various combination of hormones such as IAA, kinetin, zeatin, 6-benzylaminopurin (BA) and Gh$_3$. The germination frequency of cotyledonary stage embryos showed above 72% on media with all of the hormonal combinations, but the embryos germinated on medium with 2mg/L BA or 0.1mg/L kinetin and 0.3mg/L GA$_3$ developed more vigorously into plantlets than those of other hormonal combinations. Torpedo-stage embryos cultured on medium with 0.3 mg/L Gh$_3$ were pretreated for 8 weeks at 2-week intervals at 4$^{\circ}C$, The germination frequency of the cold-preheated embryos increased with the increment of pretreatment period from 2 to 8 weeks. The greatest frequency of germination (73.3%) was obtained from the embryos pretreated for 8 weeks at 4$^{\circ}C$. The chromosomes of the root-tip cells of W plane grown for 40 days after germination were observed. Most of the regenerated plants were haploid (55.8%) or diploid (315%), but triploid (1.3%), tetraploid (5.2%), or aneuploid (6.5%) were also detected among them.

Grapes (large seed strains)were treated with fumigation using SO\ulcorner and seal-packaged by PE film, then storage at 0$^{\circ}C$ at 90$^{\circ}C$ RH for the test of storage life. The fruits weight loss and abnormal fruits increased with storage. The abnormal fruits were rapidly produced after 80 days, however, these rates of Rubel muscat and Shingyoku were only 8.0 and 8.3%, respectively. After 90 days, the rate of Rubel muscat was 19.1%, resulting in the least rate. Moisture content of Kaiji and Honey black slightly increased and that of other grapes decreased. Soluble solids content and acidity decreased except Shingyoku and Honey black, however, sugar/acid ratio increased with these strains. The external appearances were depressed with storage but sensory test value of Shingyoku, Honey black, Rubel muscat were ranged from 7 to 9, showing good evaluation. The hardness of Honey black after 90 days resulted in the highest value 0.51 and that of Izunishiki and Kaiji were 0.23-0.25, showing the least value.

Dramatic increase in global population accompanied by rapid industrialization in developing countries has led to serious environmental, food, energy, and health problems. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations has estimated world population will increase to 9.7 billion by 2050 and require approximately 1.7 times more food, and more than 3.5 times energy than that of today. Particularly, sweetpotato is easy to cultivate in unfavorable conditions such as heat, drought, high salt, and marginal lands. In this respect, sweetpotato is an industrially valuable starch crop. To replace crops associated with these food and energy problems, it is necessary to develop new crops with improved nutrients and productivity, that can be grown on marginal lands, including desertification areas using plant biotechnology. For this purpose, exploring useful genes and developing genetically modified crops are essential strategies. Currently, sweetpotato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.] have been re-evaluated as the best health food and industrial crop that produces starch and low molecular weight antioxidants, such as vitamin A, vitamin E, anthocyanins and carotenoids. This review will focus on the current status of research on sweetpotato biotechnology on omics including genome sequencing, transcriptome, proteomics and molecular breeding. In addition, prospects on molecular breeding of sweetpotato on marginal lands for sustainable development were described.
