bacterium having high abilities to solubilize in-organic phosphate was isolated from cultivated soils. The strain was identified as Aeromonas hydrophila DA33, based on the physiological and biochemical properties. The optimum temperature and initial pH to solubilize insoluble phosphate in sucrose minimal medium were 3$0^{\circ}C$ and pH 5.0, respectively. In these conditions, phosphate-solubilizing activities of the strain against two types of insoluble phosphate were quantitatively determined. When glucose was used for carborn source, the strain had a marked mineral phospahte solubilizing activity. Inorganic phospahte solubilization was directly related to the pH drop by the strain. Analysis of the culture medium confirmed the production of gluconic acid as the main organic acid released by Aeromonas hydrophila DA33.

Changes of low concentrated nitrogen-phosphate removal efficiency were investigated in 4 strains of marine bacteria applied to ceramic media. Marine bacteria were isolated and identified from Gwangyang bay. Growth rates and removal efficiencies of $NH_3$-N of 4 strains of marine bacteria applied to ceramic media were increased approximately 3 fold and over 30% than control group, respectively. A. hydrophila and P. diminuta had highest ${NO_3}^-$-N and phosphate removal efficiencies, respectively. This results showed that ceramic media is very nice material for improvement of nitrogen-phosphate removal efficiency and isolated marine bacteria may be useful to control nitrogen-phosphate at low concentration in field.

Fused phosphate and slag have used as a sources of phosphate and silicate fertilizers. In order to find out effects of these fertilizers on the growth of young rice plants in nursery, relationships between dry matter production and nutrient uptake at different fertilizer application rates were investigated for two rice varieties, Milyang 23 (a Indica-Japonica hybrid) and Akibare (a Japonica). The results were summarized as followers; 1. The maximum dry matter production was obtained at 75-150 kg/10a of fused phospate and 100-200 kg/10a of slag, respectively, however, a some variations between varieties were recognized. 2. The top/root ratio of varieties around 1.0 was proper for healty see dings and this ratio was reached at application of 75 kg/10a of fused phosphate and 200 kg/10a of slag. 3. The efficiency of applied silicate of rice seedlings was higher in fused phosphate than in slag. 4. The growth of seedling was severely retarded when soil pH was increased above 7 by the application of more than 225 kg/10a of fused phospahte and 400 kg/10a of slag.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect intra-uterine infusion of lipopolysaccharides(LPS) on the reproductive performance of dairy cows with retained placenta, The LPS isolated from Bacteroids helcogenes and Fusobacterium varium was injected at the rate of 100 ${\mu}g$ with 30 ml of phospahte buffer saline in each cow(n=33) at day 20 postpartum. Twelve cows with retained placenta were not heated with LPS and served as a control. Conception rate after first service was 0% and 33,3% for control and LPS groups, respectively. Service period was $149.6{\pm}34.3\;and\;53.0{\pm}12.5$ days for control and LPS groups, respectively(p<0.05). Services per conception was $3.6{\pm}0.8\;and\;2.1{\pm}0.3$ for control and LPS groups, respectively(p<0.05). In conclusion, intra-uterine infusion of LPS in cows with retained placenta can reduce the service period and services per conception. Reduced service period can improve the dairy farm profitability by decreasing cost un feeding and management of cows.

This study was carried cut to determine the immunological response of uterus-induced by Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in Holstein cows. The LPS isolated from Bacteroids helcogenes and Fusobacterium varium was injected at the rate of 100 ${\mu}g$ with 30 ml of phospahte buffer saline(PBS) in each cow(n=5). Three cows were acted as control. There was no difference in total polymorphonuclear leukocytes(PMNL) concentration in uterine fluid between control and LPS groups at 24, 48 and 72 hrs after LPS treatment. There was significant difference in rate of PMNL between control and LPS groups at 24(41.7% vs 72.1%), 48(41.0% vs 81.6%) and 72 hrs(44.3% vs 79.0%) after LPS treatment. There was no difference in PMNL viability between control and LPS groups at 24, 48 and 72 hrs after LPS treatment. There was significant difference in rate of phagocytic PMNL between control and LPS groups at 48 hr after LPS treatment(1.1% vs 7.7%).
