This study was carried out to investigate the native distribution of wax myrtle (Myrica rubra) in Cheju Province and its propagation method. Wax myrtle is heavily distributed at 100 to 400m above sea level of Donhong-chun and Hyodon-chun which is bordered by Youngchon-dong of Seogwipo City and Haryeri of Namcheju county. BA, IBA, Kinetin, IAA, and GA3 were applied to promote rooting of cutting but were ineffective in promoting rooting. Treating cuttings with both AgNO,1 which removes rooting inhibitor, tannin and growth regulators such as BA, IBA and Kinetin were also ineffective in promoting rooting. Incubating seeds at 4$0^{\circ}C$ for 30 days resulted in 39％ germination. There was distinct difference in leaf shape between seedlings and mature trees.

This study was carried out to produce multiple shoots and bulblets from flower stalk tissue cultures of Muscari armeniacum LEICHTLIN ex BAKER 'Early Giant', which were cultured in the half strength Murashige & Skoog's (MS) medium supplemented with auxin, NAA in combination with kinetin, BA, and TDZ, alone and/or. In flower stalk tissue culture, upper part explant was the most suitable as a source of culture material. Direct shoot formation was much more favorable in half strength MS medium supplemented with $0.1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ NAA and $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ TDZ. On the other hand, bulblet formation was increased when cultured in half strength MS medium added with $0.01mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ NAA and $0.1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$, $0.2mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ kinetin. Acclimatized plant flowered during the second year of the growing period without any phenotypic variations and formed average 1.5 bulblets per mother bulb.

Lettuce, a typical light-induced seed germination type, exhibits different germination responses according to cultivars, light quality, and plant growth regulator (PGR) treatments. Germination rates in most tested cultivars were over 85% under both white and red light, and were slightly decreased by blue light. Although photo-inhibition in germination was observed from most cultivars by far-red light, 'Cheongguangcheongchima', 'Okdol', and 'Manchudaecheongchima' could be classified as photo-insensitive lettuce cultivars by exhibiting the germination rates as 78,63, and 48% under for-red light, respectively. 6-Benzylamino purine (BAP) and kinetin promoted seed germination and normal seedling production under far-red light, but ethephon did not show any positive effects. Cytokinins such as BAP, kinetin, thidiazuron (TDZ), and zeatin overcame photo-inhibition of seed germination even the concentration of below $50\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$. However, auxins such as IBA, 2,4-D, and NAA failed to overcome the far-red light-induced photo-inhibition.

This study was conducted to investigate the possibility of callus induction and plant regeneration from immature inflorescence, stem and petiole of A. koreana MAX. which is worth enough to be used as food and medicine. The callus induction and its proliferation was best when immature inflorescence segments were placed on MS medium supplemented with 2, 4-D 2mg / l. The white and compact embryogenic callus on the surface of dark yellow and soft callus which was induced from immature inflorescence segments came into being only on MS medium with 2, 4-D 1mg /l and 2mg /l, but didn't come into being on the other ones. The shoot came into being effectively from callus derived from immature inflorescence on MS medium mixed 2, 4-D 0. 1mg /l with Kinetin 1mg /l, and 2, 4-D 0.5mg /1 with Kinetin 2mg /l. Immature inflorescence was most appropriate material for callus induction and plant regeneration.

This is the fundamental research on restoring damaged vegetation areas in the vicinity of DMZ using local native plant species. This research is aimed at identifying effective plant growth regulators (PGR) for seed germination and seedling growth of mountain mulberry, and developing effective methods for managing its germination and growth. Mountain mulberry seeds were collected from the regions in the DMZ vicinity, and tests with seven treatments using four PGRs including $GA_3$, kinetin, ABA and NAA, were conducted. The germination rate was calculated in two different ways of both in a growth chamber and in a greenhouse after seven days observation, and the growth characters such as leaf width/length, seedling width/length and fresh/dry weight, have been surveyed in a greenhouse for three months. Although in the growth chamber the highest germination rate was shown at a group with the kinetin treatment, it was not significantly different to that of the control group. Groups with ABA or NAA presented relatively low germination rates. As for the greenhouse test, the germination rates of all groups ranged 20~30% without significant difference each other, the reason of which might be due to low absorption by the effect of a soil drench method used in this study. The entire growth characters with the treatments of $2.15mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ of kinetin and $10mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ of $GA_3$ were significantly different to the control. NAA treatment only showed better growth of seedling width compared to the control. Consequently, the most effective PGRs for the germination and growth of mountain mulberry near the DMZ was kinetin. Further research on examining the most effective concentration of them was needed.

Effect of gibberllin on the breaking of bud dormancy of root and growth of aerial parts were investigated under laboratory and field condition for the prolongation of shoot growth duration, shortening of fruit bearing age and the increase of root yield. Drop application of GA (0.5ml of 50ppm) on rhizome of one year old root broke bud dormancy better than by low temperature. Soaking for one hour of one year old roots which wintered in the field in GA (50-200ppm) greatly accelerated the emergence of new buds while kinetin was only effective at low level (50ppm). GA substantially increased stem length in early stage and petiole length later on while kinetin increased stem diameter. Under the field condition with polythylene film tunnel (PET) in early spring the soaking in GA (50ppm for 1 hour) of rhizome of 4 year old root with replanting and dropping GA (50ppm, 1ml) on rhizome without replanting brought earlier emergence (29days) in comparison with that in the usual field. PET alone caused 14 day-early emergence. GA increased the length of stem and petiole only in early stage and replanting decreased only petiole length in later stage. Soaking in GA with replanting caused the Pronounced decrease in peduncle length, percentage of (ruin set and dry weight of reproductive organ (fruits and peduncle). Dropping without replanting showed significant decrease only in dry weight of reproductive organ. Fruit maturing was 20 days earlier than in usual held with little difference between GA and PET. It is well expected that GA could be used for early emergence of bud, shortening of root dormancy period, thinning of fruit and higher root yield according to application amount and methods.

In order to obtain plantlet derived by anthers, the anthers of Lilium asiatic hybrid 'Gran Paradiso' were cultured on Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with various combinations of auxin and cytokinin. The most suitable pollen stage of anther culture for the callus induction was 3 days before anthesis at the early to late binucleate stage. Organogenic calli were induced on MS medium supplemented with 5.0 mg/L 2,4-D alone and the combination of 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D and 1.0 mg/L kinetin, however, the combination of NAA and BA was more effective than that of 2,4-D and kinetin on plant regeneration through organogenesis. Shoots were formed from the induced callus on the medium with 0.5 mg/L NAA and 1.0 mg/L BA after 180 days of culture. Multiple shoots with 3-4 leaves, roots, and bulblets were formed on the medium with the combination of 2.0 mg/L NAA and 2.0 mg/L BA after 250 days of culture. The chromosome from root tip of the regenerated plantlet showed the diploid (2n=2x=24). Diploid plants were transferred to the pots and all plants were flowered in two years.

Various plant growth regulators were tested for shoot proliferation of Tripterospermum japonicum, a rare and endangered species. Among the six different media tested, MS medium was the best for the shoot growth. Whereas BA, upto 3 mg/L, significantly increased shoot proliferation rate, it suppressed the rate at higher levels. Neither kinetin nor TDZ was so effective in proliferating shoots as BA. As for rooting, TDZ strongly inhibited it even at very low concentration though spontaneous rooting was frequently observed from the proliferated shoots during culture of lower concentration BA or kinetin. In contrast, shoot elongation was significantly promoted by $GA_3$. More than 90% of the proliferated plantlets could be transplanted via cuttings into pots containing artificial soil mixture where they rooted and resumed normal growth. Most of the plants bloomed to bear fruits in the following year.

The experiment was conducted to culture callus tissue induced from foliage leaf of garlic bulb for the production of virus-free stocks and for the reduction of expenses for seeds, The following results were reached. 1. Linsmaier-Skoog basal medium containing 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) $10^{-5}M$ and benzyladenine $10^{-5}M$ showed the most effective for the induction for the induction of garlic callus. 2. The growth rate of callus was the highest in Linsmaier-Skoog basal medium containing kinetin $10^{-6}M\;and\;2,4-D\;10^{-6}M$ 3. The results of periodical assay of virus concentration in callus tissues showed that virus was almost eliminated by repeated transfer of translucent and soft tissue for eight generations. 4. When virus-free garlic callus tissues were transfered to Murashige-Skoog basal medium containing kinetin $10^{-5}M$ and naphthaleneacetic acid $5\times10^{-6}M$, the tissues were redifferentiated and formed plantlet.

The effects of cytokinin and putrescine on adventitious shoot induction from leaf explant of Rhodiola sachalinensis A. Bor were investigated. Among cytokinin used in this experiment, BA was more effective on adventitious shoot induction and shoot elongation than kinetin. Especially, 1 mg/L BA was the best to increase adventitious shoot induction (71%) and shoot elongation (3.0 mm). In addition, 100 mM putrescine in MS medium with 1 mg/L BA was higher in adventitious shoot induction (93%) and shoot elongation (3.8 mm) than single treatment of 1 mg/L BA. Adventitious shoots induced in this experiment rooted on 1/2 MS medium and acclimated over 95% on composed soil (peatmoss:sand=1:1).
