This study was conducted to examine the effect by application method and concentration of plant growth regulator (PGR) on the growth and runner production of strawberry (Fragaria ${\times}$ ananassa Duch. cv. Maehyang) in a velno-type greenhouse. The seedlings of strawberry were transplanted in pot ($64{\times}27{\times}18cm$) filled with commercial mixed medium (Tosilee) on February 22nd, 2016. The 6-benzylaminopurine (6-BAP) was applied with foliar spray or drench, respectively as 900, 1,200 or $1,500mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ (50 mL per plant) at 3 weeks after transplanting. Nutrient solution was sufficiently supplied by the drip irrigation as EC $0.65dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ for rooting during 7 days. After rooting, the 450 mL nutrient solution supplied per pot twice a day (10 min). Plant height and crown diameter of 'Maehyang' mother plant appeared no significantly difference. The other growth characteristics, such as root length, number of primary roots, leaf length, leaf width, leaf area and fresh and dry weights of the shoot or root, were significantly the greatest in the control. And, the SPAD value of strawberry was the highest as 44.2 in the drench with $900mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$. The foiler spray was more effective in runner production than drench, and the number of runners appeared high values at the 900 and $1,500mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$. Whereas, the number of strawberry plantlets was effective in the drench. The results indicate that both growth and the number of runners of strawberry plant were the best achieved by foliar spray application at the $900mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$.

This study was carried out to optimize the embryogenic callus induction and plant regeneration from mature seeds of Sorghum bicolor. The effect of growth regulators was investigated on formation of embryogenic callus. The highest frequency of embryogenic callus was observed when the mature seeds were cultured on B5 medium supplemented with 2 mg/L 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). The highest frequency of plant regeneration from embryogenic callus was observed on MS medium with 0.5 $mg\;l^{-1}$ 6-benzyl amino purine (BAP) and 0.25 $mg\;l^{-1}$ indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) to optimize the shoot regeneration. High concentration of BAP (1 $mg\;l^{-1}$) supplemented with IBA (0.25 $mg\;l^{-1}$) was effective combination for shoot multiplication. MS medium supplemented with 1 $mg\;l^{-1}$ IBA was found to be the most effective for inducing roots. Normal rooted plantlets were transferred to the greenhouse for hardening with over 90% survival rate. Hence, this reproducible protocol could be useful for mass propagation and genetic transformation of S. bicolor.

The establishment of an efficient protocol of plant regeneration from leaf explant cultures of Perilla spp. is reported. Regenerated shoots were obtained from leaf explant cultures on solid MS medium containing different concentrations of cytokinins and auxin. The effect of cytokonin and auxin differed depending on each acession. The combination treatments of high level of cytokinin and low level of auxin was more effective for plant regeneration in Perilla frutescens. The best concentration of sucrose was 3% for regeneration. Of spermidine, spermin and putrescine. treatments, the most effective treatment for plant regeneration was $10\;mg/{\ell}$ spermidine.

This study was conducted to establish the tissue culture system for Atractylodes plant which is most frequently used in oriental medicine. Root and auxiliary bud of Dachul cv., which is Atractylodes hybrid (A. macrocephala x A. japonica), were used as target tissues for in vitro culture. In root culture, callus induction rate was higher in the treatment of BAP combined with NAA than others, however, 2-iP was more effective for callus proliferation and root induction. Although calli were effectively induced from the root and proliferated in lower concentration of cytokinin combined with higher auxin, root tissue was inappropriate for shoot regeneration. For plant regeneration with axillary bud, BAP combined with NAA was more effective than 2-iP with NAA or IBA. Number of regenerated plant per bud was 3.8, which was highest, and stem diameters was shown as 5.0mm under the conditions of 1 mg/L BAP combined with 1 mg/L NAA. Although, plant height was tend to be higher in 2-iP than BAP, number of the regenerated plant was lower via versus. Furthermore, root proliferation of regenerated plant was more effective in higher concentration of sucrose (7%) than in lower concentration (3%). In results, auxiliary bud was an efficient target tissue for producing regenerated plant of Atractylodes under the conditions of 1 mg/L BAP combined with 1 mg/L NAA and higher concentration of sucrose was effective for root proliferation of regenerated plants.

This study was conducted to find the factors affecting somatic embryogenesis in suspension culture of Rehmania glutinosa and investigate the possibility of artificial seed production by encapsulation of somatic embryos. Linsmeier-Skoog medium was appeared as proper for somatic embryogenesis. Sucrose with $3{\sim}5%$ as carbon sources was good for somatic embryogenesis, and both ammonium and nitrate nitrogen were necesary for normal somatic embryo production. BA with NAA or kinetin with NAA were better than the use of cytokinin alone for both somatic embryogenesis and numbers of somatic embryos. $AgNO_3$ as protectant for vitrification of seedlings in vitro culture had no harmful effect on somatic embryos. Sphericity of encapsulated seeds was good at 3% gel of sodium alginate but germination was better at 2.5% sodium alginate level. Artificial seeds were germinated and developed normal shoots and roots under in vitro condition.

In order to optimize tissue culture conditions for genetic transformation of Miscanthus sinensis, we investigated the effects of different plant growth regulators on callus induction and plant regeneration using mature seeds as explant. Dehusked mature seeds were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 3 to 10 mg/L 2,4-D, dicamba or NAA, 30 g/L sucrose and 750 mg/L $MgCl_2{\cdot}6H_2O$. A number of combinations of auxin and cytokinin (BA, kinetin) were also used. MS medium containing 3 mg/L 2,4-D was found optimal for embryogenic callus induction (75.7%) from mature seed. The highest number of plants were regenerated (44.6%) upon transferring the embryogenic callus to MS medium supplemented with 1 mg/L 2,4-D plus 2 mg/L BA. This high efficient plant regeneration system could be useful to use for molecular breeding of new cultivars by genetic transformation.

The effects of plant regulators on direct somatic embryogenesis in liquid culture of Rehmannia glutinosa were investigated and the proper explant for direct somatic embryo formation was studied. Direct somatic embryos were induced from leaf segments culture in the MS liquid medium containing 0.5 mg/l of both IAA and NAA, while IBA of 1.0 mg/l was required for the same effect. Many somatic embryos were directly formed at the concentration of 2.0 mg/l cytokinin such as BA, kinetin and zeatin, but somatic embryogenesis was relatively poor at above or below this level. Relatively more somatic embryos were induced in the combination of 1.0mg/l IAA and 2.0mg/l zeatin. Formation of somatic embryos begun after 6 weeks on stem segments, while 7 weeks both on petiole and leaf. However, overall production of somatic embryos after 8 weeks was higher in leaf segment than that of stem segment.

To enhance salidroside productivity from a cell suspension cultures of Rhodiola sachalinensis, various combinations of auxin (NAA) and cytokinins (BA, Kinetin) concentration and addition of $GA_3$, TDZ, zeatin, spermine and spermidine at a hormone combination to be established were examined. NAA/BA combination is superior to NAA/kinetin combination in biomass and salidroside content. Maximum salidroside production ($64.6{\pm}8.9\;mg/L$ medium) was obtained from $2B_5$ medium with 1 mg/L NAA and 5 mg/L BA. The adding of $GA_3$ ($0.01\;mg/L{\sim}5\;mg/L$) was beneficial for salidroside accumulation and the highest productivity of salidroside, $90.3{\pm}8.34\;mg/L$, was obtained from $2B_5$ medium supplemented with 1 mg/L NAA, 5 mg/L BA and 0.1 mg/L $GA_3$. On TDZ, zeatin, spermine and spermidine, expectant results were not obtained except a little affirmative effect of spermidine ($69{\pm}2.88$ at 1 mg/L).

To establish rapid micropropagation through organogenesis from apices-derived callus or direct adventitious shoot of three calla lily cultivars(Zantedeschia spp, cv. Sunlight, cv. Chiante, cv. Pink Persuation) were cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with different plant growth regulators. The formation rate of callus, organogenesis and in viかo tuber production among the three cultivars were tested. Callus was obtained from cvs. Sunlight, Chiante and Pink Persuasion; the best cultivar was Sunlight. Sunlight induced $53.3\%$ callus and Chiante had the highest rate of $56.7\%$ direct shoot regeneration on medium with 2.0 mg/L BA. Regeneration frequencies ranged from 20 to $70\%$ on medium with 2.0-3.0 mg/L BA. The highest percentage of regeneration and the greatest number of shoots were obtained on medium containing 3.0 mg/L BA in three cultivars. Cytokinins induced multiple shoot formation; 1.0 mg/L of 2ip, 5.0 mg/L of BA, and 1.0 m/L of BA induced 16, 14 and 12 multiple shoots in cvs. Sunlight, Chiante and Pink Persuasion, respectivly. 1.0 mg/L of IAA enhanced root growth in cvs. Sunlight and Chiante while cv. Pink Persuasion exhibited enhanced root growth at 2.0 mg/L of IBA. NAA, however, induced no change in root growth. The addition of 90 g/L sucrose enhanced in vitro tuber formation and following tuber expansion in cv. Sunlight, while 70 g/L of sucrose was effective in cvs. Chiante and Pink Persuasion.

Morphogenetic responses were investigated by culturing embryo and leaf explants of Korean wild type tea plant, Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze. Induction of direct somatic embryogenesis as well as adventitious and/or axillary shoots was obtained from mature zygotic embryo cultures on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium having 5 to $20\mu\textrm{M}$cytokinin a lone. Morphogenetic response was decreased dramatically by the addition of auxins tested. One hundred percent of induced and isolated shoots formed roots after four weeks of culture on half-strength MS or quarter-strength Schenk and Hildebrandt (SH) media supplemented with $10\mu\textrm{M}$indole-3-butyric acid (IBA). Immature zygotic embryos were shown to be a suitable explant for embryogenic callus formation in the presence of 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid(2, 4-D) in basal medium. Mature zygotic embryo originated leaves were used to test their ability for mophogenesis by incorporating plant growth regulators such as IBA, naphthyl-1-acetic acid (NAA), and 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). Apparently, the morphogenetic responses of the cultured explant sources on the types and/or levels of plant growth regulators tested were observed visually.
