Four preparations of liquid turfgrass fertilizers were tested cool season turfgrasses during fall season. The preparations of PS-A, PS-B, PH-C and PH-D for commercial products were contained with essential nutrient elements, seaweed extract, amino acids, and humus substance. Growth and quality of creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris Huds cv. Penn-A1) and Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) mixture (Midnight 33%, Moonlight 33%, Prosperity 33%) were evaluated by normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), root length and fresh weight, shoot density, turf color, and chlorophyll content. Three foliar sprays of 4 preparations with an interval of 7 days were made in the fall of 2013 in the sod production field at Hapchun, Korea. No significant difference among 3 preparations was found in NDVI of creeping bentgrass. However, PS-A was significantly increased NDVI of Kentucky bluegrass. Two to three applications of PS-A significantly increased chlorophyll content and turf color. Three foliar sprays of PS-A and PS-B were significantly increased the shoot density of Kentucky bluegrass on 20 days after final application. These results may indicate that the use of some preparation is beneficial in producing higher quality turfgrass sod with better color and chlorophyll content during fall season.

In order to determine selective mode of action of naproanilide between rice and paddy weeds, absorption and translocation of $^{14}C$-naproanilide in rice, Echinochloa crus galli, Cyperus serotinus, and Sagittaria pygmaea were studied, Rice plant and Echinochloa crus-galli absorbed less amount of $^{14}C$-naproanilide than Sagittaria pygmaeo and Cyperus serotinus. Less amount of $^{14}C$-naproanilide was translocated into shoots and translocation rate was slower in rice and Ecl:inochloa crzis-galli than that of Sagittaria pygmaea and Cyperars serotinus. Also, 30-40% of $^{14}C$-naproanilide was distributed at tubers of Sagittaria pygmaea and Cyperus serotinus, which explained that higher amount of $^{14}C$-naproanilide was absorbed from tubers. $^{14}C$-naproanilide was gradually decreased in all plant species and finally more radioactivity was determined in Sagittaria pygmaea and Cyperus serotinus than in Echinochloa cars-galli and rice plant after $^{14}C$-naproanilide treated plants were transferred to Kasugai solution.

Curvularia leaf blight of creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) putting green by caused Curvularia trifolii was observed in Hapcheon, Korea. In July to September 2014, curvularia leaf blight developed on leaf blades of creeping bentgrass as small water-soaked lesions that subsequently turned into dark-colored, necrotic spots. The spots were expanded and became gray, grayish-brown, or light brown, circular to oblong lesions with purple to dark brown borders that often were surrounded by a yellow halo. The necrotic lesions coalesced, became irregular in shape and caused tip or complete blighting of the leaves. Blighted leaf blades appeared grayish-white to tan. The fungus was identified by morphological characters and 16S rDNA sequencing as C. trifolii. Conidia of the pathogen were short, with predominantly 3-septa, straight or often curved, with end cells frequently paler than intermediate cells. Size of the 3-septate conidia in culture are $26{\sim}28{\times}11{\sim}12{\mu}m$. Pathogenicity of the fungus was proved by artificial inoculation on the host. This is the first report of C. trifolii causing leaf blight on creeping bentgrass in Korea.

This study was conducted to predict the rice yield loss and determine the economic threshold levels for water direct seeded rice from competition of the most serious weeds, Scirpus juncoides Roxb. (bulrush) and Echinochlor crusgalli L. (barnyardgrass) in Daegu of Korea. To predict crop yield as a function of weed density used a rectangular hyperbola, and determine their economic threshold levels used the equation developed by Cousens. The rice yield loss model of S. juncoides was predicted as y = 466 / (1+0.00188x), $R^2$ = 0.933 and that of E. crusgalli was y = 458 / (1+0.02402x), $R^2$ = 0.973. In comparison of the competitiveness represented by parameter ${\beta}$, it was 0.001884 in S. juncoides and 0.02402 in E. crusgalli. Economic threshold calculated using Cousens' equation was negatively related to the competitiveness of weed. So that the economic threshold of S. juncoides was 13.4 and that of E. crusgalli was 1.07 plants per $m^2$.

The objective of this study was to find herbicidal compounds in the essential oil of palmarosa (Cymbopogon martini). Of essential oils from basil (Ocimum basilicum), blackpepper (Piper nigrum), clary sage (Salvia sclarea), ginger (Zingiber pfficinale), hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis), nutmag (Myristica fragrance), palmarosa (Cymbopogon martini), fennel (Foeniculum vulgare), sage (Salvia leucantha), and spearmint (Mentha spicta), the herbicidal activity of palmarosa essential oil, which was determined by a seed bioassay using rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), was highest ($GR_{50}$ value, $201{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$). In palmarosa essential oil, 11 volatile organic chemicals were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectometry with solid-phase micro-extraction apparatus and the major constituents were geraniol (40.23%), geraniol acetate (15.57%), cis-ocimene (10.79%), and beta-caryophyllene (8.72%). The $GR_{50}$ values of geraniol, citral, nerol, and geranyl acetate were 151, 224, 452, and $1,214{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$, respectively. In greenhouse and field experiments, foliar application of palmarosa essential oil at the level of $80kg\;ha^{-1}$ controlled weeds effectively. Overall results of this study showed that the herbicidal activity of palmarosa essential oil could be due to geraniol and citral which had lower $GR_{50}$ values.

Absorption and translocation, and metabolism studies using $^{14}C$-naproanilide were conducted to determine selective mode of action of naproanilide in rice and paddy weeds under different temperature conditions. Absorption amount of $^{14}C$-naproanilide was greater in Cyperus serotinus and Sagittaria pygmaea than rice and Echinochloa crusgalli. Especially, absorption of $^{14}C$-naproanilide in C. serotinus was increased twice at 32 $^{\circ}C$ and 48 hour exposure conditions. $^{14}C$-naproanilide in roots was translocated to shoots very little in rice and E. crusgalli, but S. pygmaea somewhat greater translocation than the other species. In C. serotinus and S. pygmaea, susceptible weeds, metabolic rates of naproanilide into phytotoxic NOP (2-(2-naphthoxy)-propionic acid) and NOPM (methyl 2-(2-naphthoxy) propionate) were significantly greater than in rice and E. crugalli, tolerant species. Consequently, differential uptake by roots and the difference in activation metabolism of naproanilide among species may explain the possible mechanism of selectivity.

Herbicide is an essential agricultural chemical in the modern agriculture. Due to its bioactivity, however, risk of herbicide use against non-target organisms should be seriously considered. Among the unfavorable aspects given by herbicide, the residue is the most important because herbicide residue in soil and agricultural product is closely related to human safety. The residue in soil and crop is dependent on conditions of soil, weather, herbicide use and crop cultivation, etc. In general, the residue in soil or agricultural product in Korea is known to be not serious at this moment, except for some problems like carry-over effect on succeeding crops. To secure safety of herbicide use for the health, soil ecology and other environment, researches on herbicide residue including monitoring survey should be done more frequently and extensively. Safety guide for herbicide usage should be kept by farmers and development of long toxic herbicide should be accelerated.

Weed species occurred in dry- and water-seeded rice were 14 (2 grasses, 8 broadleaves, and 4 sedges) and 12 species (1 grasses, 7 broadleaves, and 4 sedges), respectively. Dominant weed species in dry-seeded rice were Lindernia procumbens, Cyperus difformis, Cardamine flexuosa, and Cyperus serotinus in discending order. The species in water-seeded rice were Cyperus difformis, Scirpus juncoides, and Lindernia procumbens. The number of weed species emerged in direct-seeded rice was determined at about 45 days after seeding, and dry weights of weeds were increased up to 75~90 days after seeding. Timing for great increase of plant height varied depending upon weed species. Regardless of weed number emerged, the most dominant weeds until late stage of growth were Cyperus difformis, Bidens frondosa, Digitaria ciliaris and Echinochloa crus-galli in dry- seeded rice, and Cyperus difformis, Echinochloa eras-galli and Scirpus juncoides in water-seeded rice.

Large patch disease in Zoysia japonica Steud. is the most destructive disease in turfgrass. For large patch management, it has been dependent on chemical controls but pesticides are harmful to soil, water and biodiversity. In this study, we evaluated 4 Streptomyces spp. strains (S2, S5, S8 and S12) which were selected in previous studies using metagenome approaches. Root colonization of the strains, large patch suppressing effect and the pathogen density change in actual golf course were investigated to evaluate biological control potential of the strains. All strains exhibited reliable root colonization ability that strains populations were higher than $6log\;cfu\;g^{-1}$ in turfgrass rhizosphere. The pathogen density, with S8 treatment, was detected average of 0.7 after a week and average of 1.2 after 4 weeks. Disease control and suppressive the pathogen population by S8 strain showed higher efficiency than other strains. S8 was applied in an actual golf course for the large patch control and pathogen density. The pathogen density in S8 treatment plot was detected below 1.6 per toothpick and lower compared with untreated plot. The results indicated that pathogen density was suppressed by S8 and the stain has great potential as a biological control agent for the large patch.

Electronic public records are classified simultaneously as production, a preservation period is granted, and after a certain period, they are transferred to an archive and preserved. This study intends to find a way to improve the efficiency in classifying transferred records and maintain consistent standards. To this end, the current record classification work process carried out by the National Archives of Korea was analyzed, and problems were identified. As a way to minimize the manual work of record classification by converging the required improvement, the process of identifying outlier candidates based on a list consisting of classified information of the transferred records was proposed and systemized. Furthermore, the proposed outlier discrimination process was applied to the actual records transferred to the National Archives of Korea. The results were standardized and constructed as a training data format that can be used for machine learning in the future.
