Fusarium spp. were isolated from field grown rice, wheat and barley in 1976. The pathogens isolated included Fusarium (Calonectria) nivale, F. (Gibberella) moniliforme and F. (Gibberella) roseum 'Graminearum' and 'Avenaceum'. Among the saprophytes F. (Nectria) episphaeria was isolated. In each of these isolated both the Fusarium and perfect stages were found. F. nivale, and F. episphaeria with there Calonectria, and Nectria stages do not seem to have been recorded previously in Korea. Of the Fusaria isolated, $66.3\%$ from rice were F. moniliforme, and $68.2\%$ from wheat and barley were F. roseum 'Graminearum'. Perithecia also were produced under laboratory conditions. F. moniiforme was recovered wheat heads and also from barley seed.

F. roseum "Graminearum" and F. moniliforme were isolated from hulls of seeds collected from fields. F. roseum "Graminearum" was isolated from brown rice of all the varieties tested. F. moniliforme was isolated from Nagdongbyeo, Seomjinbyeo, Sinsunchalbyeo, Milyang 23, Baegyangbyeo and Samnambyeo. F. moniliforme was isolated from the most of the seeds damaged by sparrow and it formed sporodochia of this fungus. Five species including F. moniliforme were isolated from plant hopper collected from paddy fields in September. To select seed a disinfectant, twelve fungicides were tested and P242 was one of the best effective fungicidetested. After seed treatment with the fungicide, F. moniliforme was not isolated from hulls but was frequently isolated from brown rices.

In this study, we evaluated the use of RAPD method to discriminate among strains of Fusarium species including F. oxysporum and f. sp. of F. oxysporum. As a result of the amplication, fifteen primers showed total 180 bands ranging from 0.2 to 3 Kb. Among those 180 bands, 126 polymorphic bands were used for bionominal matrix code (0, 1), and UPGMA dendrogram analysis. Fusarium oxysporum isolate 355 showed high similarity with F. oxysporum isolate 358 at 0.9603. Fusarium roseum isolate 87 and F. oxysporum isolate 358, F. o. f. sp. lycopersici isolate 69 and F. o. f. sp. melongena 68 showed low similarity of 0.3809. Fusarium oxysporum isolate 361 and F. o. f. sp. raphani isolate 218 showed similarity of 0.8730, F. oxysoprum isolate 354 and unidentified Fusarium sp. isolate 228 showed similarity matrix of 0.7936, and F. roseum isolate 87 and F. o. f. sp. raphani isolate 57 showed similarity matrix of 0.5873.

A total 115 isolates of Fusarium species from ginseng roots of 'rotted', and soils collected during 1982-1985 in Korea, were identified and classified into 11 species with the Snyder & Hansen System (with reference to Gerlach-Nirenberg's Modified System). The most dominant of these species were F. solani (55 isolates), F. oxysporum (35 isolates), and F. moniliforme (10 isolates) sensu Snyder & Hansen. The other 8 species (15 isolates) were very rarely isolated and previously identified as F. roseum sensu Snyder & Hansen (1945); these were F. equiseti, F. avenaceum, F. graminum, F. arthrosporioides, F. sambucinum, F. reticulatum, F. semitectum and F. poa. Tested for the ability to infect the roots of ginseng (3 yr. old plants) in field condition with the mycelial inoculum, only one isolate of F. solani (34 isolates tested) and one isolate of F. oxysporum (24 isolates tested) were weakly pathogenic to ginseng roots. Any of the isolates (7 isolates tested) of F. moniliforme [Liseola section] were not pathogenic to ginseng. However, all the isolates of tested of the species of Phytophthora cactorum, Pythium ultimum, and Cylindrocarpon destructans were highly pathogenic to ginseng roots. The species of Fusarium solani and Cylindrocarpon destructans were supposed to be a host dominant disease agent in ginseng plant.

by use of HCl-Giemsa technique and light microscope, dividing vegetative nuclei in hyphae of Fusarium species were observed and the results are summerized. The chromosome number of these fungi was ranged 4 to 8. Of the 20 strains, the highest haploid chromosome number is 8 in F. solani S Hongchun K4, F. moniliforme (from banana) and F. raphani (from radish). The lowest is 4 in F. sporotrichioides NRRL 3510 and F. equiseti KFCC 11843 IFO 30198. F. solani 7468 (from Sydney), F. solani 7475 (from Sydney), F. oxysporum(from tomato). F. roseum (from rice), F. sporotrichioides C Jngsun 1, F. equiseti C Kosung 1 and F. avenaceum 46039 are n=7. F. moniliforme (from rice) F. graminearum, F. proliferatum 6787 (from Syndey), F. proliferatum 7459 (from Synder) and F. anguioides ATCC 20351 are n=6. F. moniliforme NRRL 2284, F. poae NRRL 3287 and F. trincinctum NRRL 3299 are n=5. From these results, it may be concluded that the basic haploid chromosome number of the genus Fusarium is 4 and mat have been evolutionary variation of chromosome number through aneuploidy and polyploidy.

The effects of amino acids on mycerial growth and sporulation of the decreased and increased pathogenicity variants of potato dry rot Fusarium roseum ‘Sambucinum' were as following. The increased pathogenicity variants Ic52 and Ic116 showed the trend of greater mycerial growth, marking up to 67mg on leucine, than the decreased pathogenicity variants Dc14 and Dc91, and produced markedly low conidia below $25{\times}10^{4}/ml$ or no sporulation. On methionine all the variants and the wild type showed the lowest growth recording 14mg to 20mg with no sporulation. Cystine similarly as glysine supported the poor growth 30mg to 19mg of the variants Dc14 and Dc91, respectively, and did not support the sporulation. The former amino acid like asparagine supported the growth of the variants Ic52 and Ic1l6 marking 47mg and 36mg, respectively. On all the eleven amino acids the variant Dc14 showed the trend of more mycerial growth and sporulation than the variant Dc91 which marked the exceptionally high sporulation $195{\times}10^{4}/ml$ on glutamic acid.

In order to prevent the losses of the rice by fungal deterioration during storage, fungal contaminants were isolated and identified from the grain samples (Milyang Nr.23) stored for seven months from December, 1978 to June, 1979 in silo, flat store and Tongari. Out of thirty cultures isolated from Korean paddy and brown rice samples, twenty seven species were identified, and there are eleven species of Aspergillus (A. caespitosus, A. condidus, A. chevalieri, A fischeri, A. fumigatus, A. flavus, A. nidulans, A. oryzae, A. ruber, A. sydowii, A. versicolor), five species of Penicillium (P. atramentosum, p. chrysogenum, P. cyaneofulvum, P. nototum, P. steckii), two species of each Alternaria (Al. faesiculata, Al. grisea) and Curvalaria (C, interseminata, C. tetromea), and one species of each Trichothecium roseum, Nigrospora sphaerica, Rhizopus nigricans, Fusarium spp., Mucor spp., Helminthosporium spp., and Gliocladiopsis spp. The major types of fungi grown on the surface of paddy during storage were A. flavus and A. candidus, while A. ruber and A. sydowii appeared in brown rice samples. And also A. candidus, A. versicolor and A. glacus groups were considered as major deteriorating microorganisms in stored brown and paddy rice in Korea.

Occurrence and characteristics of infectious fungi and physiologically abnormal Paecilomyces tenuipes were examined. These unfavorable fungi are recently known to cause yield loss, decreased quality of products in artificial cultivation farms of P. tenuipes. Total 529 fungal isolates were collected from 22 farms of 7 provinces. These isolates were composed of physiologically abnormal P. tenuipes strains and other infectious fungal strains, which constituted 23.2% and 50.9%, respectively. Physiologically abnormal P. tenuipes strains showed irregular synemata, and absence of local color. They were divided into 4 types or C-l, C-2, C-3 and C-4. Other infectious fungal strains were identified to 5 species, Beauveria bassiana, Fusarium sp., P fumosoroseus, Tricothecium roseum, Aspergillus parasiticus, which were 22.1, 13.8, 7.6, 4.0 and 3.4%, respectively. All of them were hyphomycetous fungi, did not produce synemata, and revealed faster growth rate than that of P. tenuipes.

From the sample seeds of rice cultivar Palkoeng with the brown spot symptom, Helminthosporium oryzae was detected in $86\~92\%$ of hulls including empty glumes, lemma, palea, and rachilla in five to seven days of incubation. When the seeds were dehulled, the percentage detection decreased to $74\~83\%$ of pericarps. The fungus sporulated on whole surface of the seed and was detected within about ten cell layers deep of endosperm but not detected in embryo. Fusarium moniliforme was found in embryo as well as pericarp and endosperm. The frequency of F. roseum, Trichoconis padwickii, Curvularia spp., Atternaria tenuis, Cladosporium cladosporoides and Phoma sp. was less than three percent of hulls and pericarps. In seven days of incubation, $60\~87\%$ of the germinating seeds showed the symptom of H. oryzae while $13\~40\%$ were apparently healthy. This fungus in hilum of infected rice transmitted through pericarp to plumule shoot and radicle of the germinating seed.

This study was made in order to determine which Gibberella species were occurring on rice stems and seeds in the field, and their survival 5 months after harvest time. An average 12% of plants infected with 'Bakanae' disease occurred in 4 fields planted with non-treated seed. Prior to harvest, more perithecia of Gibberella moniliformis occurred on infected rice stems than of Gibberella rosea. But Gibberella rosea was most common on the seed, and perithecia of this species also survived best until spring. F. moniliforme, F. roseum and Ophiobolus sp. were isolated from seedlings planted from naturally infected seed at the rates of 10, 25 and 8% respectively and from infected stems at rates of 3, 10 and 2% respectively. Perithecia of Gibberella rosea survived through the winter on naturally infected rice stems when kept dry indoors, buried in field soil, or places in straw stackes in the field. They did not survive on straw left on the soil surface during the very cold and dry conditions of the 1976-'77 winter.
