This experiment was conducted to evaluated the effect of CM (plant growth regulator) treatment on flowering, pod maturing and root yield components of Astragalus membramaceus Bunge. Three dilution rates (60, 70 and 80 times) were sprayed at $3{\sim}4$ leave stage. As the results, flowering was delayed $25{\sim}35$ days than August 13 of control and higher dilution rates was more effective to delay flowering. At the havesting time, be compared with non-treatment, plant height reduced $7.6{\sim}18.9\;cm$ and number of matured pods were decreased $50.6{\sim}76.1$ by increasing dilution rates. However, weight of dry root per plant was increased to 29% and dry root yield per 10a was increased to 28% in dilution rates 70 compared with non-treatment.

A bacterial disease of small red bean (Phaseolus angularis) was observed on field-grown plants in Suwon in year 2003. Leaf symptoms initially appeared as water-soaked spots that gradually enlarged, became flaccid and necrotic and were often bordered by a small zone of lemon yellow tissue. In the case of severe infection, dead leaves were defoliated. Pod symptoms consisted of the lesions that were generally circular, slightly sunken and dark reddish brown. Isolation made from diseased leaves on yeast extract dextrose calcium carbonate agar yielded nearly pure cultures of a yellow-pigmented bacterium typical of a xanthomonad. Three bacterial strains were purified and used for further tests. Pathogenicity of strains was confirmed on 3-week-old small red bean plants sprayed with bacterial suspensions containing $10^8 cfu/ml$ of phosphate buffered saline. The representative Xanthomonas strains isolated from small red bean were compared with X. axonopodis pv. phaseoli and X. axonopodis pv. phaseoli var. fuscans type strains for fatty acid profiles, biochemical tests and metabolic fingerprints using Biolog GN2 microplate, showing that all outcomes were indistinguishable between our isolates and reference strains. Two of three strains produced a melanin-like brown pigment extracellularly on King's medium B agar. These results suggest that this new small red bean disease observed in Suwon is bacterial fuscous blight caused by X. axonopodis pv. phaseoli and X. axonopodis pv. phaseoli var. fuscans.

Pod-edible bean or snap bean is a fairly new crop to domestic farmers but the national demand is steadily increasing in recent years along with the development of western food business and change in dietary patterns. At the same time, much efforts are being made to export it to foreign country, mainly to Japan. The amount of seeds introduced from outside is also continuously increasing along with the enlargement of area planted for the crop. Hybridization breeding for the crop has already been started to supply the cheaper and better seeds which will reduce the seed costs and foster the higher income to the farmers. In this experiment, several technologies related with the production of quality seeds are preliminary investigated. Some of the results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. Highly significant interaction was recognized between planting dates and no. of pods per plant and no. of branches but no interaction between planting dates and plant height and no. of nodes on main stem. Days to maturity was proportionally reduced to later planting dates. 2. Rate of viviparous pods and seeds was gradually increased in later planting dates but rate of germination was increased in earlier planting dates with lower germination rate in white seed coat grains than in colored seed ones. 3. Seed yield was higher in the earlier planting dates with a great deal of varietal difference. Early to mid April was considered to he the optimum planting dates for snap bean in Kyungbuk area. High correlation was recognized between seed yield and no. of pods per plant, no. of seeds per plant, and 100 seed weight. 4. Days to flowering was three and seven days longer in Cheongsong, high mountainous area than in Kunwi, somewhat prairie lowland. One hundred seed weight was also higher in Cheongsong than in Kunwi. Rate of viviparous grains, pods, and decayed seeds was higher in Cheongsong but, at the same time, the rate of germination and seed yield was also higher in Cheongsong. 5. One hundred seed weight of KLG5007 increased continuously up to 35days after flowering and decreased thereafter but that of KLG50027 increased to 40days after flowering and slowly reduced thereafter. The content of crude oil reached to maximum at 40 days after flowering and reduced thereafter. The rate of germination in Gangnangkong 1 was the highest, 89.3%, at 35 days after flowering and reduced thereafter while that in KLG50027 reached to maximum, 70.7%. at 40days after flowering and reduced thereafter. Thus, the optimum harvesting time for snap bean was considered to be 35~40days after flowering. 6. The snap bean pods at yellow bean stage easily became viviparous ones under saturated moisture conditions for 24 hours at $25{\sim}30^{\circ}C$. Therefore, it is recommended to harvest pods somewhat earlier than yellow-bean stage and let them do post maturing, especially when it is to be rained.

To obtain pure lines for breeding $F_1$ varieties of Primula malacoides, 10 lines that were considered uniform in growth and flowering characteristics were selected from self-crossings of the sixth generation ($S_6$). Plant height of the selected lines ranged from 20.8 to 33.2 cm, and number of leaves ranged from 33.6 to 54.2. The selected lines flowered at 181.4 to 207.8 days after sowing. Three lines, including 'PR-03-81', flowered in less than 190 days from sowing, while six lines, including 'PR-03-228', only flowered after more than 200 days from sowing. In terms of petal color, six lines, including 'PR-03-81', were pink, three, including 'PR-03-236', were purple, and line 'PR-03-275' was white. Flower diameter ranged from 2.4 to 2.9 cm, and number of pedicels per plant was between 15.4 and 26.4. Number of flowers per pedicel ranged from 20.2 to 30.2. Germination was more than 70%, and number of seeds per capsule (pod) ranged from 110.0 to 162.8. In summary, plant height was low and flower diameter was small and plants had many flowers and readily formed seeds. The selected lines are not only valuable as ornamental plants but could also be used as breeding materials for $F_1$ hybrids of Primula polyantha.

Cypripedium is an orchid genus of over 50 species widely distributed in the northern temperate zone, with a few taxa extending central America and the Himalayas and the southwesternmost tip of China in Asia. Of the known species approximately two thirds are found in China. In Korea, 4 species were reported to find with rare popularity ; C. macranthos, C. guttatum, C. japonicum, and C. calceolus. The seed has a firm brown fusiform testa with an opening at one end where the micropyle of the ovule was situated. Cypripedium has small, fusiform, wind-dispersed seeds that weigh about $1{\sim}2{\mu}g$ and range from 0.1 to 2 mm long and 0.07 to 0.4 mm across. The germination of Cypripedium was previously thought to be hard to cultivate in one's garden and impossible to propagate artificially, nowadays lab-propagated seedlings are readily available in EU or United States. We had already reported the successful micropropagation of lady's slipper orchids with green pod sowing methods. The collected Cypripedium species and hybrids were planted in Korea National Arboretum (KNA) on Oct. 2018. The 11 species including C. candidum and the 31 hybrids such as C. Ingrid were introduced from Germany with CITES certification. The lady's slipper orchids bloomed on May to June, and the flowers were pollinated in the same species or hybrids to get seeds for in vitro germination on 2~3 days after fully flowering. The green pods were collected after 49~70 days after pollination. The 6 species of Cypripedium seeds were easily germinated on the POM within 70 days after sowing, and the 12 hybrids PLBs were observed with small roots. We had established the scheme of lady's slipper orchids germination in 3 months with green pods, and get the possibility of seedling in 10 months of sowing in vitro.

Subseasonal-to-Seasonal (S2S) prediction information which have 2 weeks to 2 months lead time are expected to be used through many parts of industry fields, but utilizability is not reached to expectation because of lower predictability than weather forecast and mid- /long-term forecast. In this study, we used multi-layer perceptron (MLP) which is one of machine learning technique that was built for regression training in order to improve predictability of S2S precipitation data at South Korea through post-processing. Hindcast information of ECMWF was used for MLP training and the original data were compared with trained outputs based on dichotomous forecast technique. As a result, Bias score, accuracy, and Critical Success Index (CSI) of trained output were improved on average by 59.7%, 124.3% and 88.5%, respectively. Probability of detection (POD) score was decreased on average by 9.5% and the reason was analyzed that ECMWF's model excessively predicted precipitation days. In this study, we confirmed that predictability of ECMWF's S2S information can be improved by post-processing using MLP even the predictability of original data was low. The results of this study can be used to increase the capability of S2S information in water resource and agricultural fields.

The goal of this study was to examine the growth and yield according to planting density in wide-row drill seeding cultivation suitable for mechanized harvesting. We evaluated effects depending on planting densities [row spacing (30, 40, 50, and 60 cm) and plant spacing (10, 15, and 20 cm)] and cultivars ('Hongeon' and 'Arari') on growth and yield of Adzuki Beans (Vigna angularis (Willd.) Ohwi Ohashi). When row spacing decreased, the stem length increased in 'Arari' but decreased in 'Hongeon.' The stem diameter and number of branches in both the cultivars decreased with a decrease in row spacing. The pod height increased with lower planting densities. The greatest height values recorded in 'Hongeon' and 'Arari' were 5.0 cm and 8.8 cm in $30{\times}10cm$ and $50{\times}10cm$ treatments, respectively. The number of pods and number of seeds in both cultivars tended to increase with a decrease in planting density. On the other hand, in 100-seed weight, there was a difference in planting density in 'Hongeon', but no difference in 'Arari'. The highest yield was at the planting density of $40{\times}15cm$ in both 'Hongeon' and 'Arari', $285kg{\cdot}10a^{-1}$ and $374kg{\cdot}10a^{-1}$.

A mungbean cultivar "Munpyeong" (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek) was derived as a cross between "Keumseong" and "IT163157" at the Jeollanamdo Agricultural Research and Extension Services (JARES) in 2013. "Munpyeong" has an erect growth habit, heart leaflet, green hypocotyls, black and straight pods when matured, and a dull green seed surface. The stem length of "Munpyeong" was 60 cm, which was 6 cm shorter than that of the control cultivar "Owool." The pod number per plant was 25, which was 3 more than that of the control cultivar. The 1000 seed weight of "Munpyeong" was 45 g, which was 4 g lighter than that of the control cultivar "Owool." Its field resistance to mungbean mottle virus, cercospora leaf spot, and powdery mildew are similar to the control cultivar, whereas its field resistance to lodging was slightly stronger. The hard seed rate of "Munpyeong" was 3.2%, which was similar to that of the control cultivar. The sprout yield ratio was 7.54 times, which was 9% more than that of the control cultivar. The average yield of "Munpyeong" was 1.93 ton/㏊, which was 21% more than that of the control cultivar "Owool" (Cultivar registration number: 5878).
