Five known diosgenin glycosides have been isolated from the MeOH extract of Smilax china rhizomes and characterized as prosapogenin A of dioscin, dioscin, gracillin, methyl protogracillin, methyl protodioscin and its corresponding 22-hydroxy analog. This is the first isolation of the former four compounds from this plant. ${\beta}-Sitosterol\;glucoside$ was also isolated and identified.

In continued studies on cultivated Korean rhubarb rhizomes (Rheum undulatum), three known stillbenes (desoxyrhapontigenin, rhapontigenin, piceatannol) have been screened for activity on blood platelet aggregation. Both rhapontigenin and desoxyrhapontigenin exhibited strong inhibition on the aggregation induced by arachidonic acid collagen. However, piceatannol did not show inhibition. These inhibitory effects may partially contribute to anti-blood stagnancy activity of rhubarb.

A new method for separation and quantitative determination of isoflavone glucosides in rhizomes of Belamcanda chinensis (Iridaceae) by high performance liquid chromatography was elaborated. A reverse-phase system with a Spheri-5 RP-18 column using MeOH:HOAc:$H_2O$(24 : 5 : 71) as a mobile phase was developed. The isoflavonoids were detected at 268 nm and the analysis was successfully carried out within 15 min.

Three compounds were isolated from the rhizomes of Dioscorea quinqueloba and identified as $diosgenin\;3-O-{\alpha}_-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1{\rightarrow}2)-{\beta}-_D-glucopyranoside$, dioscin and gracillin by chemical and spectroscopic means.

Five compounds have been isolated from the rhizomes of Polygonum bistorta. On the basis of spectral evidences, these compounds were identified as catechol, 4- hydroxybenzaldehyde, umbelliferone, scopoletin and pyrogallol.

Pontential mutagenic and antimutagenic activities of four steroidal saponins from Smilax china rhizomes were investigated. These saponins did not revealed mutagneicity in the Ames and SOS umu test. For antimutagenic activity by SOS umu test, two spirostanol glycosides, dioscin and gracillin, inhibited the activity of ${\beta}-galactosidase$ induced by AF-2, but their proto-type furostanol glycosides did not show this activity.

The rhizomes of Acorus gramineus have frequently been used in traditional medicine mainly for sedation as well as enhancing brain function. In this study, the anti-allergic activity of A. gramineus was investigated. The 70% ethanol extract of the rhizomes of A. gramineus was found to inhibit the allergic response against 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX)-catalyzed leukotriene (LT) production from rat basophilic leukemia (RBL)-1 cells and ${\beta}$-hexosaminidase release from RBL-2H3 cells with $IC_{50}$'s of 48.9 and > $200{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. Among the 9 major constituents isolated, ${\beta}$-asarone, (2R,3R,4S,5S)-2,4-dimethyl-1,3-bis (2',4',5'-trimethoxyphenyl)tetrahydrofuran (AF) and 2,3-dihydro-4,5,7-trimethoxy-1-ethyl-2-methyl-3-(2,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)indene (AI) strongly inhibited 5-LOX-catalyzed LT production in A23187-treated RBL-1 cells, AI being the most potent ($IC_{50}=6.7{\mu}M$). Against ${\beta}$-hexosaminidase release by antigen-stimulated RBL-2H3 cells, only AI exhibited strong inhibition ($IC_{50}=7.3{\mu}M$) while ${\beta}$-asarone and AF showed 26.0% and 39.9% inhibition at $50{\mu}M$, respectively. In addition, the ethanol extract of A. gramineus showed significant inhibitory action against the hapten-induced delayed hypersensitivity reaction in mice by oral administration at 200 mg/kg. Therefore, it is suggested that A. gramineus possesses anti-allergic activity and the constituents including ${\beta}$-asarone and AI certainly contribute to the anti-allergic activity of the rhizomes of A. gramineus.

As landscaping building roofs and concrete structures increase gradually for low carbon green growth policy of government, But waterproofing membranes of those structures are effecting by root penetration of landscape plant. 80, we progressed study about test method for fast evaluating root resistance of waterproofing materials jointly with Tokyo Institute of Technology. The result of the study is as follows: (1) The penetrating load of the needle at the displacement speed of 1mm/min was measured for various membrane to basis and lap joints of membrane, the load force was $3{\sim}50$ N by material variously. (2) According to the test method of deriving rhizomes of bamboo grass to basis and lap joints of membrane, there were no penetrated membrane until present, but need persistent observation. (3) Test method of deriving rhizomes of bamboo grass to basis and lap joints of membrane can shorten from period of 2 years to 1 year for testing. Because rhizomes of bamboo grass can grow from May to September, test is possible in same period.

한국 미기록종인 고창고랭이(Schoenoplectiella ${\times}$uzenensis (Ohwi ex T. Koyama) Hayasaka)를 전라북도 고창군 고수면의 저수지에서 발견하였다. 고창고랭이는 짧게 기는 지하경이 있고 소수가 1-3개가 달리는데 반하여, 송이고랭이(S. triangulata)는 지하경이 아주 짧고 줄기가 빽빽이 모여나며 소수가 5-20개가 달리고, 제주올챙이골(S. lineolata)은 지하경이 길게 발달하고 소수가 1개가 달려 뚜렷이 구별된다. 이 미기록종의 국명은 고창군에 자라기 때문에 '고창고랭이'로 하였고, 고창고랭이에 대한 기재, 도해, 칼라도판 및 근연종 사이의 차이점을 검색표와 표로 제시하였다.

Microorganisms associated with seed-rhizome rot of gingers preserved in three underground storage caves were identified with respect to rot types. Rot patterns were grouped into 4 different types : yellow soft rot, brown rot, localized ring rot, and water-soaked rot. Water-soaked rot was highest in frequency with 40% and ring rot the least with 14%. Causal pathogens differed with rot type, yellow soft rot by Erwinia carotovora and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, brown rot by Fusarium solani and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, localized ring rot by F. solani, and water-soaked rot by Pythium spinosum and P. ultimum. Pythium myriotylum, the causal pathogen of ginger rhizome rot which occurs severely in fields was rarely detected from storage seed-rhizomes suggesting its minor involvement with storage rot. Pathogenic Pythium isolates were frequently obtained from both rhizome surface and inner tissues of rotten rhizomes. Detection frequency of Pythium isolates in inner tissues decreased as increasing distance from rhizome surface. In wound-inoculation tests, above pathogens caused a varying degree of rot on healthy rhizomes at 15$^{\circ}C$, 2$0^{\circ}C$ and 3$0^{\circ}C$ with increasing severity at higher temperatures.
