To evaluate anti-influenza virus activity of 113 specimens of Korean traditional medicine both water and methanol extracts were examined using haemagglutination inhibition test. The water extract from Citrus junos was found to inhibit influenza virus A/Taiwan/l/86(H1N1). The survival rates of virus were determined by in situ cellular enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The water extract of Citrus junos was fractionated by chromatographic separating using Amberlite XAD-4, 40% MeOH and 60% MeOH layer had antiviral activity. The half inhibition concentration $(IC_{50})$ of 40% MeOH layer on survival of influenza virus was $MIC>361.5{\mu}g/ml$ and $IC_{50}$ value of fr. 40-4 fractionated from 40% MeOH layer was $677.19{\mu}g/ml$. These results suggested that the fractions of Citus junos have potent anti-influenza A virus activity.

The chemical composition of amino acids in the rind and fresh of Citrus Junos Sieb was studied and compared with that of Citrus natsudaidai Hayate. The results were summarized as follows. 1. Beth of them contained twenty kinds of amino acids, including three kinds of unknown amino acids. 2. Proline in the rind of Citrus Junos and aspartic acid in the rind of Citrus natsudaidai were the richest of all amino acids but on the contrary. Histidine was the poorest of all amino acids in the rind of them. The content of proline amounted to 16.48 mg/100mg in the rind of Citrus Junos and the content of aspartic acid amounted to 32.18 mg/100mg in the rind of Citrus natsudaidai. 3. Aspartic acid was the richest of all amino acids in the flesh of Citrus Junos and the content of it amounted to 32.68mg/100mg. On the other hand, Proline was the richest of all amino acids in the flesh of Citrus natsudaidai and the content of it amounted to 20.93mg/100mg. But the content of histidine as 1.32 mg/100 mg in the flesh of former and tyrosine as 1.18 mg/100 mg in the flesh of latter were relatively small. 4. In the fruits of Citrus Junos and Citrus natsudaidai, aspartic acid and Proline were rich and histidine was poor in quantity. Generally, Flesh contained more amounts of all kinds of amino acids than those rind and especially glutamic acid was richer, compared with other amino acids in flesh.

As a basic research for breeding new varieties, reciprocal -intergeneric crosses between Citrus junos and P.trifoliata were made. F$_1$ hybrid production using in vitro ovule culture, gametogenesis, and fertilization phenomena were investigated. Frequency of fruit set resulting from crossing of Citrus junos and Poncirus Trifoliata was 16.6% while that of Poncirus Trifoliata and Citrus junos was 11.7%. Callus formation occurred well when ovules at the 6th week after pollination were cultured on MT (Murashige and Tucker) medium supplemented with zeatin 0.5 mg/L and NAA 1.0 or 3.0 mg/L. Immature ovules developed into mature embryos of the MT medium supplemented with 2,4-D 0.1 or 3.0 mg/L. Immature ovules developed into mature embryos of the MT medium supplemented with 2,4 D 0.1 or 0.5 mg/L. The invitro germination rates of 20-week-old ovules set C. junos $\times$ P. Trifoliata and P. Trifoliata $\times$ C. junos were 54.5% and 48.6%, respectively. The emergence ratios of trifoliate hybrids obtained by C. junos $\times$ P. Trifoliata and P. Trifoliata $\times$ C. junos were 56.7% and 100%, respectively. The chromosome number of C. junos and P. Trifoliata was n = 9 or 2n = 18, and the sizes of their pollen grain were 33.75 $\mu$ and 25.0 $\mu$. The length and width of embryo sac in C. junos and P. Trifoliata were 69.38~79.23 $\mu$ and 27.50~38.56 $\mu$, and those of egg cells were 17.50~41.50 $\mu$ and 6.25~8.12$\mu$. Fertilization of C. junos and P. trifoliata terminated 72 h after pollination.

Yuzu (Citrus junos) gummosis disease, caused by Phytophthora nicotianae, was first reported in 1997. As known in citrus, Phytophthora is the most fastidious soil-borne pathogen to control. In order to minimize its damage to Citrus spp., integrated pest management (IPM) approach, including fungicide chemicals and resistant cultivars, is necessary. Therefore, in this study we tried to evaluate tolerance of yuzu cultivars and its related species against yuzu Phytophthora. Trifoliate orange was evaluated as a susceptible host to yuzu Phytophthora by both mycelial growth onto extract media and immature fruit inoculation. However, in zoospores spray-inoculation on 2-year-old cuttings tree, trifoliate orange appeared to have a resistant property as showing less than 6% diseased leaf rate. Among yuzu cultivars only 'Namhae No. 1' appeared resistant property against both P. nicotianae and P. citrophthora. The 'Namhae No. 1' showed 5.7% and 10.6% diseased leaf ratio by P. nicotianae and P. citrophthora, respectively. Clearly, in order to reduce damages caused by two yuzu Phytophthora, we suggest that growers may utilize a trifoliate orange as a rootstock and 'Namhae No. 1' as a scion for fruit production.

The factors affecting the isolation and culture of the protoplast of embryogenic callus, derived from immature ovule in Citrus junos, were examined. An incubation time in enzyme solution of 16 hrs was preferable for protoplast isolation. Efficient protoplast yields were obtained from the treatment of equal concentration of 0.7 M $\textrm{BH}_{3}$ to the enzyme solution containing 1.0% cellulase, 1.0% macerozyme and 0.2% pectolyase. Protoplast cultured in MT medium with 0.1 mg/L 2,4-D showed vigorous division and some of them formed callus. Induced callus was subcultured on solid MT medium but the callus showed very slow growth. The above results show the possibility to culture from protoplast fusion in Citrus genera.

An in vtro nucellar polyembryo propagation method was established with mature seed of the Citrus junos Sieb. 7-8 nucellar polyembryos per seed were induced on MS basal medium without plant growth regulators. The polyembryos developed to complete plantlets on teatment with IBA. These shoots grew further in MS medium without plant growth regulators. Rooting of shoots occurred on MS medium supplemented with IBA. These plantlets were successfully transplanted to small plastic pot containing soil mixture. Somatic embryos were induced from nucellar polyembryo and maturation occurred spontaneously from proliferating cultures on MS medium without growth regulators. Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) marker analysis of in vitro and in vivo grown junos orange showed identical polymorphism indicative of their genetic stability. The RAPD polymorphism produced revealed same banding pattern in each regenerant. Hence, propagaton of junos orange by nucellalr polyembryos was efficient and produced in genetically stable plants under in vitro conditions.

The objective of this study was determined to evaluate ${\alpha}$-amylase, ${\alpha}$-glucosidase, pancreatic lipase inhibition in vitro and DPPH radical scavenging activity of the several Korean resources plants. The ${\alpha}$-amylase inhibitory activity of Salicornia herbacea, Erythronium japonicum (flower) and Phragmites communis (root) in water extract showed relatively high 62.8%, 66.5% and 69.3%, respectively. The ${\alpha}$-amylase inhibitory activity of Citrus junos (pericarp) and Cornus officinalis in methanol extract was found to have an effect with 32.8% in Citrus junos (pericarp) and 60.9% in Cornus officinalis. Corylopsis coreana in both water and methanol extract had the highest ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity of 81.7% and 89.5%, while the extract of Portulaca oleracea, Ficus carica and Citrus junos was not measured ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity at given experiment concentration. Depending on the extraction solvent and the plant species, it was observed that there was a significant difference in ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity. The pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity showed relatively higher in the methanol extract than water extract except pericarp of Citrus junos. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of selected plants was much difference between measured plant species, and showed that the increase was proportional to the concentration. These results suggested that selected plants had the potent biological activity on carbohydrate, lipid Inhibitory activity and antioxidant activity, therefore these plant resources could be a good materials to develop medicinal preparations, nutraceuticals or health functional foods for diabetes or obesity.

Volatile compounds were extracted from freeze-dried citron peel(Citrus junos) using supercritical CO2 under 4,000psi at 40$\beta$. Four fractions were obtained with consumption of CO2. Volatile compounds of extracts were analyzed by GC-MSD. Yield of vol atile compounds from citron peel was 0.11g/CO2($\ell$) and maximum yield was 8.812g/kg. Major volatile compounds of extracts were dl-limonene, Υ-terpinene, linalool, sabinene, $\beta$-myrcene, $\alpha$-pinene, $\beta$-farnesene, $\alpha$-terpineol and terpinolene. $\alpha$-Pinene, $\beta$-myrcene and dl-limonene in the fractions decreased gradually, while $\alpha$-terpineol and $\beta$-farnesene increased as the consumption of CO2 increased.
