This study was conducted to examine effects of plant growth regulators and light resources on the formation of multiple shoot and plant regeneration of Hovenia dulcis var. koreana Nakai. Stem and shoot tip were cultured on MS medium or WPM supplemented with various plant growth regulators. At the single treatment, the highest shoot formation was obtained when stem explants were cultured on WPM supplemented with kinetin $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$. MS medium containing NAA 0.1 and TDZ $0.1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ gave the best results for shoot induction rate and shoot growth in combination treatments. Of the BAP and kinetin tested, BAP $0.5mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ on WPM was found to be more effective for shoot growth from shoot tip. Under white fluorescent light treatment, shoot growth was much higher than blue, red LED treatments. Root induction from in vitro growth of plantlet was the best on WPM supplemented with $1.0mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ IBA. The results suggest that selection of plant growth regulators and light resources could be important factor to achieve an efficient in vitro growth.

Various microorganisms secreting plant growth regulators were screened from the 100 microbial isolates including bacteria, actinomycetes and fungi. The isolates showing distict influence on the plant growth were identified as Aspergillus niger. The germinations of Raphanus and Cucubis seeds were completely inhibited by the culture filtrates of A. niger KK, A. niger KKS and A. niger ATCC 9462. The culture filtrates of the three strains also inhibited the formation and development of roots and hypocotyls of Raphanus. The culture filtrates of A. niger ATCC 26550 induced the hypocotyl curvature of Raphanus like plant hormone-auxin and at the same time caused the necrosis of the whole leaves.

Plant growth regulators were treated on the cut perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L. cv. Reveille) to investigate the effect on the regrowth after cutting. The growth showed better result when 0.1 or 0.5 mg/L cytokinin were treated. Among cytokinins, kinetin or 2iP gave the better effect on the growth than BAP. In 2.4-D as an auxin. cut plants grew best at the concentration of 0.1 mg/L. The initial regrowth was very vigorous when GA$_3$ was treated as a growth regulator, but the growth was retarded after 2 weeks later of cutting. Co-treatment of kinetin as a cytokinin and 2,4-D as an auxin showed synergistic effect on the regrowth of cut perennial ryegrass. Both plant growth regulators gave the same result at the same concentrations in the suspension culture of perennial ryegrass cells.

In order to elucidate the effects displayed by the plant growth regulators on the senecence of tobacco leaves, the author applied gibberellic acid, Kinetin, Indole-acetic acid, uracil, and malefic hydrazide to the excised leaves in concentration of 25mg/l of each regulators. And author obtained the results as following, 1. Parallel to the decreases of chlorophyll, the amounts of protein and RNA were decreased. 2. The supression of decrease of the amounts of RNA and protein was displayed by the plant growth regulators, G.A., I.A.A.. The decrease of them in M.A. treatments was more than in non-treatments. 3. The ratio changes of chlorophyll a/b and the changes of protein and RNA content seemed to be no relations.

Rhodiola sachalinensis has been used as a traditional medicine in Asia. We were germination in vitro seedling of grow naturally in Chang bai Moutain. And callus induction from leaf segments, treatmented plant regeneration in plant growth regulators (Auxins and cytokinins). We investigated optimal conditions for efficient plant regeneration through callus induction and shoots formation on medium with various kinds of growth regulators. Callus induction and adventitious shoots formation was achieved when cytokinin and auxin combinated to this experiment. Especially, there was the highest callus induction rates when we were used to 1 mg/L kinetin and 2 mg/L NAA $(98\%)$, Adventitious shoots formation wear obtained difference rate when cytokinin alone 1 mg/L BA $(96.6\%)$. And regenerated plantlet was acclimatized and transplanted to the soil, showed $100\%$ survival.

This experiment was carrid out to investigate the effect of organic fertilizer and plant growth regulators application on the growth and quality of tomato. The results are summarized as follows. 1. Plant height of tomato was recorded highest when chemical fertilizer plus organic fertilizer was applied, and did not have significant effects in number of leaf. But stem diameter was positively effected by chemical plus organic fertilizer application than chemical fertilizer alone. 2. Flower formation, flower weight, anther weight and ovary weight were generally increased by organic fertilizer application. 3. Fruit-set and number of flower were significantly increased by organic fertilizer application. 4. Deformity fruit was the lowest rate at chemical plus organic fertilizer application when it was 14.7 percent, and it was increased by chemical fertilizer application. 5. Days of ripening was slightly delayed by organic fertilizer application and also flowering date shortened by chemical fertilizer application. 6. Plant growth regulators had positive effects on number of flower, flower weight, anther weight, and ovary weight, and variations of their effect by cluster were apparent. 7. Fruit-set was increased by 2,4-D 10ppm and BA 20ppm treatments but was decreased by treatments of Ethephon 10ppm and control. 8. By the BA 20ppm and 2,4-D 10ppm treatments, the rate of deformity fruit was decreased and fruit ripening date was also shortened.

Effects of plant growth regulators and anti-oxidants for rapid multiplication of Cymbidium kanran were investigated. The best gelling agent was 2.5 g/1 gelrite which needed less quantity (about 28%) and half price than 9 g/1 chemi-cal agar. Undefined edible agar was only a little bit worse than chemical agar in growth, but the price was half as much as the latter. The higher concentration of BA and NAA, the deeper browning of medium that prevented from performing its functions of plant growth regulators. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (M.W. 40,000) was the most effective anti-oxidant other than ascorbic acid, aspartic acid, and rutin in protecting the browning of medium, enhancing the effect of plant growth regulators, and thus prolonging the subculture cycle. Vigorous seedlings were obtained by 0.1∼1.0 mg/1 BA,0.1 mg/1 NAA and 1 g/1 polyvinylpyrrolidone treatments. Therefore, the best result for growth and econo-mic aspects in rhizome culture of Cymbidium kanran were obtained by using MS basal medium with 2.5 g/1 gelrite, 1 g/1 polyvinylpyrrolidone, 0.1∼1.0 mg/1 BA and 0.1 mg/1 NAA.

As the zygotic embryo of North American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L.) matured during stratification over 203 days it grew from 0.75 to 5.2 mm. Embryo excision and culturing on media containing different concentrations of two growth regulators, gibberellic acid ($GA_3$, 1 to 10 ${\mu}M$) and benzyladenine (BA, 1 to 5 ${\mu}M$), during stratification, showed that shoot and root number and the shoot, root and cotyledon length increased with increased stratification time. Gibberellic acid was the more effective growth regulator for increasing shoot and root number and shoot, root and cotyledon lengths. Immature embryos (stratified for up to 63 days) needed growth regulators for further development. Cultures on $GA_3$ at the last culture date (stratified for 203 days) when embryos were mature, produced multiple shoots but there was no effect of $GA_3$ concentration. Benzyladenine inhibited shoot and root growth regardless of embryo stratification. Growth regulators had little effect on cotyledon length of mature embryos. Embryos cultured on $GA_3$ combined with BA were green on all culture dates whereas greening in the control and BA treatments increased with culture date. The BA treatments induced 100% swelling of the embryos on the final culture date while in the control and $GA_3$ treatments there was no swelling. There was little or no curling in the control and BA treatments and a linear decrease in curling with culture date in the $GA_3$ and $GA_3$ + BA treatments.

One of the most attractive short-term possibilities for increasing freezing tolerance of winter crops may be the application of chemicals. This research was conducted to determine the effect of two plant growth regulators. Terpal-C and Cerone on freezing tolerance and winter survival of canola. Three cultivars were planted on the michigan state University Agronimy Farm at East Lansing. MI. on Sept. 10. 1992 and 1993 Chemicals were applied to one-month-old plants when they reached the 5 leaf stage. Ion leakage tests for freezing tolerance were conducted before and after chemical treatment. Winter survival was evaluated by counting the plant standing in the fall and spring. Neither of the chemicals. Terpal-C. inhibited natural cold hardening.
