There are many evidences that vaiious plant pathogenes were introduced with imported plants and agricultural productsrfrom foreign countries and caused heavy losses of domestic economic plants, ever since the early twentieth century when our country began to trade plants and agricultural products with foreign countries. There are many ways that foreign plant pathogenes have been introduced into our country, but the main route is considered to be imported plants and agricultural products contaminated with plant pathogenes. Plant quarantine which prevent effectively introduction of plant pathogenes from abroad was practiced for the first time in our country in 1912, and that is relatively earlier activity in the history of plant quarantine of the world. Several plant pathogenes have been introduced into our country even after plant quarantine had been practiced. Particularly for about 15 years, from the 2nd World War to 1961 when the law of Plant Protection was enacted and practical works of plant quarantine was reoperated, Korean agriculture was opened to various foreign plant pathogenes as a lapse period of plant quarantine in our country. Introduced plant pathogenes are, for the most part, from Japan because of depending upon Japan in the foreign trade of plants and agricultural products of our country. As present plant quarantine is required more exactness and rapidness, reasonable organization of quarantine system including more trained quarantine specialists, modernized facilities and introduction of improved quarantine techniques are necessary. Reasonable organization and improvement of plant quarantine system are important not only for protection of korean agriculture to plant pathogenes possible to be introduced from foreing countries, but also for increasing and stabilization of export of plants and agricultural product of our country.

This study was investigated the antibacterial activities of Cirsium japonicum from extracts five regions(Chungnam, Gyeonggi, Gangwon, Jeju and Jeonnam) extract against six food-borne pathogenes(Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enterica and Vibrio vulnificus) using the broth dilution and agar diffusion method. At concentrations between 0 and $750{\mu}g/mL$ the extracts showed an antibacterial effect against all tested bacteria. The antibacterial activities of Cirsium japonicum from Jeju and Gangwon are stronger than others. The minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC) values against the six bacteria ranged from 93.75 to $750{\mu}g/mL$. In time killing assay(cell growth curves), the tested bacteria inactivated upon exposure to the extracts for 24h. At the 24h exposure to the extracts, all bacteria were inhibited to over 70% for growth. In particular, Bacillus subtilis, Salmonella enterica and Vibrio vulnificus conveyed an inhibition of growth to almost complete. It is anticipated that Cirsium japonicum extracts may have greater potential as natural food preservatives.

In order to investigate the fungicidal activities against various plant pathogenes, diminishing effect of plant transpiration, phytotoxicities, vapor effect and the rate of reduction by ultraviolet rays of phenylmercuric 8-oxyquinolinate(P.M.Q), this experiments were undertaken under various laboratory conditions. 1. Inhibitory activity on the spore germination of this chemical was shown less effective than that of P.M.A..(Table 2, Table 3, Table 4, Table 5 and Table 6) Also, P.M.Q. was resulted a somewhat higher inhibitory activity on the hyphae growth than P.M.A. (Table 7). 2. In the diminishing effect of plant transpiration, 8-hydroxyquinoline sulfate(oxine sulfate) was more strong inhibitory at first than P.M.Q., while, at last, P.M.Q. was more strong inhibitory in comparison with oxine sulfate(Table 8, Fig. 1 and Table 9). 3. P.M.Q. was shown less injury on the germination of rice plant seeds and the emergence of their roots than P.M. A.(Table 10). Injuries was not observed on the rice seedlings and soy-bean seedlings sprayed with 40 ppm of this chemical. 4. P.M.A. had more inhibitory effects on the mycelial growth of phytopathogenes than P.M.Q. on the vapor effect (Table 11, Fig. 2). 5. Biological activity and chemical decomposition rate of P.M.A. were greatly reduced by exposure of this compound to ultraviolet rays. But, P.M.Q. was only slightly affected by similar treatment(Table 12, Fig. 3, Table 13 and Fig. 4). From the above results, this chemical will be a promising fungicide adding fungitoxicities against various phytopatho genes, diminishing effect of plant transpiration and physico-stability.

This study was investigated for the purpose of the isolation and identification of antagonistic bacteria with antifungal activity against plant pathogens. This bacteria denominated Bacillus subtilis KYS-10 and the optimum growth condition were 4% sucrose, 1% yeast extract, 0.2% $K_2HPO_4$, pH 7, 150 rpm, $30^{\circ}C$, 8 day. The antifungal activities against nine plant pathogens determined inhibition zone size by diffusion methods. The results, G. zeae (scab) 70 mm and P. grisea KACC 40439 (blast), P. capsici KACC 40177 (phytophthora blight) and C. destructans KACC 41077 (root rot of ginseng) 40~43 mm, and C. gloeosporioides KACC 43520 (ripe rot), C. gloesporioides KACC 40003 (anthracnose), S. shiraiana KACC 41065 (stem rot) and S. shiraiana (mulberry sclerotial disease) 35~39 mm and F. Oxysporum KACC 44452 (bulb rot of ginseng) 28 mm. From these experiment results, author suggest that Bacillus subtilis KYS-10 would be developed as a biological control agent thorough the field experimet in the near future.
