Forty-seven wild accessions of Lotus japonicus Regal (Japanese trefoil) indigenous to Japan were investigated for nine morphological characters. Average temperature and annual precipitation were negatively correlated with stem color and seed weight. On the other hand, latitude was positively correlated with these traits. Consequently, accessions from sites at higher latitudes with low temperatures and precipitation tend to have dark red stems and heavy seeds. Cluster analysis based on nine morphological characters classified 47 wild accessions into six major groups. Cluster I included four accessions of tall and erect plants. These plants are phenotypically similar to commercial variety 'Empire'. Cluster II consisted of three accessions of creep plants with pale red stems. Cluster III contained 24 accessions that had average values for all morphological characters evaluated. Cluster IV included two accessions of erect plants with rounded leaflets and dark red stems. Cluster V included four accessions of small, creep plants with pale red stems. Cluster VI included seven accessions of small and erect plants, a phenotype that also applies to ?Gifu B-129?, which is used as experimental strain worldwide. These data were deposited into LegumeBase, an online database (http://www.legumebase.brc.miyazaki-u.ac.jp/) supported by the National BioResource Project (NBRP) in Japan.

This study investigates the color stimuli of two varieties of foliage plants by extracting electroencephalogram, electrocardiogram and physiology activity data from 30 participants in their 50s or older. Changes in the physiological activity of subjects against six color stimuli were examined. The stimulus to real green plants 'Silver Queen' was set as the control group, and was compared with other groups including the stimulus to real 'Angel' plants and four stimuli to artificial colors (two color images and color schemes of the same green and red plants). Compared to the five groups, the relative theta power spectrum (RT) and the ratio of alpha to high beta (RAHB) increased in the subjects exposed to real green plants. This result demonstrates that the green plant ('Silver Queen') increases the stability, relaxation, and internal concentration of subjects in a proper state of awakening. The result of this experiment showed a statistically significant difference in the level of RT when subjects were exposed to the groups of real green and red plants. This finding indicates that the green plant increases internal concentration more than the red plant. RT and the relative low beta power spectrum (RLB) in the groups of natural colors were higher than the groups of artificial colors when subjects focused their mind on the two types of real plants. However, the level of relative mid beta power spectrum (RMB), ratio of SMR to theta (RST), ratio of mid beta to theta (RMT), relative high beta power spectrum (RHB), and spectral edge frequency 95% were higher when subjects were exposed to the photos and colors scheme of plants than when they were exposed to real plants. The subjects experienced more "comfortable" emotions when they were looking at plants with green colors. Overall, it is recommended to use the natural colors of real plants in places where which stability and relaxation are required. On the contrary, the artificial colors of plants such as their photos and color schemes are useful in places where a high level of concentration is required in a short period of time.

Endoreduplication is a developmental process that is unique to plants and occurs in all plants. The present study aimed to assess endoreduplication in various explant tissues and regenerated somatic embryos of Doritaenopsis. We further investigated the effects of light quality on endoreduplication and somatic embryo proliferation. To this end, we studied endoreduplication in leaves and root tips from regenerated plantlets and somatic embryos and in developing somatic embryos under 4 types of lighting conditions: red light, red + far-red light, red + blue light, and white light. We found that the degree of endoreduplication varied in different explants, and that the choice of explants used also influenced the ploidy levels of the newly regenerated somatic embryos. The DNA content of the leaf (2C-8C) was less than that of the root tip (2C-16C) and somatic embryo (2C-64C). In terms of light quality, the combination of red and far-red light produced the highest number of somatic embryos, while maintaining a low degree of endoreduplication. The data obtained indicate that this light combination stimulates somatic embryogenesis in Doritaenopsis and may exert some control on endoreduplication during cell division. These findings can be applied to achieve a reduction in somaclonal variations for the purpose of mass proliferation and genetic improvement.

환경부는 2020년 야생생물 보호 및 관리에 관한 법률 시행령을 통해 멸종위기 야생생물 지정은 세계자연보전연맹(IUCN)이 제시한 지역적색 목록 지침을 준용하기로 정하였고, 적색목록 관속식물 377종을 지정하였다. 본 연구는 IUCN의 지역 적색 평가를 근간으로 평가불가(NA)를 제외한 103종을 선별하고, 국제적 수준의 적색목록 목록평가 가능한 고유종 10종을 제외한 이후 93종에 대한 재평가를 실시하였다. 본 분석에서 적용 불가 34종이 추가로 확인되어 59종에 대한 지역적색 평가를 적용하였다. 재평가 결과 취약이상의 분류군은 16종으로 CR(위급) 1종, EN(위기) 10종, VU(취약) 5종으로 평가되었고, NT(준위협) 4종과 LC(약관심) 30종, DD(정보부족) 9종을 판정하였다. 환경부 지역적색목록의 평가기준 B의 경우 정량적 분포자료나 지속적인 감속에 대한 자료없이 평가를 시도하여 데이터의 신뢰도가 없었으며 난과에 속한 멸종위기식물은 판정시 필요한 남획의 구체적인 증거나 자료확보가 미비하다. 현재 환경부의 적색목록에 대한 문제점은 객관적 기초 자료가 부재하고 중장기적인 개체군 크기의 증감에 대한 모니터링 활동이 없어 과학적 평가를 어렵게 하고 있다. 환경부는 법적으로 범주 및 평가에 대한 것을 지정하고 그 기준을 스스로 따르지 못하는 전문성의 결여가 큰 문제로 인식되며, 또한 종의 분포 및 상태에 대한 지리적 및 분류학적 편향성은 자료의 질과 양에 큰 영향을 주고 있다. 이런 문제를 극복하고 생물다양성 정책의 발전을 위해서는 객관적이고 합리적인 멸종위기종 생물 자료 관리가 필요하다.

Using data sets for Japan as a whole, as arranged with approximately $10{\times}10$ km squares (a secondary grid), we investigated the relationship between population density and the habitats of threatened vascular plants listed in the Japanese Red Data Book; depopulated areas in the present and future, areas where under-use may be serious, and those with a predominance of elderly people; and the present state of the habitats in terms of a characteristic land use pattern. Regarding the habitats of threatened vascular plants, the progress of deterioration [$(N_{CR}+N_{EN})/(N_{CR}+N_{EN}+N_{VU})$] in depopulated areas has been confirmed, where $N_{CR}$, $N_{EN}$, and $N_{VU}$ are the numbers of species classified as critically endangered, endangered, and vulnerable, respectively. Moreover, in grid squares used by a human such as farmland, the progress of the deterioration simply increases when population density becomes low. However, for many vascular plants, they are particularly endangered in populous areas. Local populations will decrease throughout Japan with the rate of depopulation in and around large cities being relatively slow. We also propose some issues that need further study. The deterioration by human activity may be reduced. On the other hand, some vascular plants may be adversely influenced by depopulation. Additionally, we should keep a close watch on grasslands and water areas in large cities to preserve vascular plants.

Harmful pet insects, if not controlled, can negatively affect people, plants and their surrounding environment. In Vietnam, all crops are regularly impacted by pest insects. In serious cases, crops can be totally destroyed by insect pests. Harmful insects that damage crops often grow fast and increase rapidly. Therefore, research on insects is crucial for managing pests, protecting crops, and forecasting pest situation in the following years. This study aimed to collect data regarding changes of pests on rice and corn as two main crops in four provinces in Red River Delta of Vietnam, including Thai Binh, Nam Dinh, Ha Nam, and Hung Yen, from 2018 to 2022. Primary data were collected from reports of government agencies and official statistics. Based on these data, this study evaluated changes of pest insects in five years, discussed reasons for such changes and response methods, and forecasted pest's behavior in the following years. Significant findings of this study include the fact that Vietnam has to face many difficulties to develop its agricultural sector. For insect management, an essential action is to do ground surveys to gather all related data including weather data, pesticide data, crop yield, and product quality. This information is meaningful for finding out causes of changes, understanding relationships between insects and surrounding factors, and predicting the situation in the following years.
