Bean sprout is one of the traditional vegetable in Korea and produced by sprouting soybean (Glycine max L.) cultivars. This experiments was conducted to investigate the ecological characteristics in collected small grain soybean lines from Chungnam province region. Thirty varieties were used in this study. Seed coat color of collected small soybean lines showed eight different types. Major seed coat color type was yellow as 8 lines of total 35 lines. The stem height, number of nodes and number of branches averaged 58.5 cm, 16.5 nodes and 11.8 branches, respectively. The average number of main stem pods and number of branching pod were appeared 43.1 and 62.7 respectively. One hundred seed weight averaged 9.9g which was lower than 10~12g of sprouting soybean cultivars as breeding goal of Korea. The average of node width showed 13.2cm and long stem open types and short stem close types were classified 1 line and 14 lines. The flower dates of collecting small soybean lines were between 8 Aug. and 13 Aug. and flowering duration was 74~85 days. The date of maturity were between 12 Sep. and 12 Oct., and maturity duration showed great variation among cultivated soybean lines.

This study was carried out to find the effects of seed tuber position and number of nodes on growth of Saururus chinensis Baill. at experimental field of Chungbuk Provincial Rural Development Administration from 1996 to 1997. Seed tubers were divided into upper, middle and lower parts, and they were prepared to 1-, 2-, 3-node cuttings in each. Percentage of sprouting in planting of middle part was highest of 92%, and the percent increased by increasing the number of nodes. Growth of shoot and root tuber was the most favorable with planting of 3-node cuttings of middle part, and leaf area index (LAI) was highest of 3.10 in the same treatment. Dry matter weight and percentage of root tuber were highest of $821g/m^2$ and 28 % with planting of 3-node cuttings of middle part. Yield of dry leaf and root tuber were highest of 272kg/10a and 821kg/10a with planting of 3-node cuttings of middle part.

The objective of experiment was to investigate the effects of planting density on growth and yield of vegetable soybean, and to clarify the optimum planting density of vegetable soybean in the middle west region of Korea. The field experiment with 4 levels of planting density was carried out at Yesan area in $2005{\sim}2006$. The days from seeding to flowering and the days from seeding to harvesting and lodging were not significantly different among planting distance. The stem length was increased as planting distance was shortened but the number of node, branch, pod per branch, pod per individual, weight of stem and pod, one hundred pod weight and rate of 2+3 seed per pod were decreased as planting density was increased. The size of vegetable soybeans was not significantly different among planting distance, but the harvest index of vegetable soybean was decreased as planting distance was shortened. Yield of vegetable soybean was increased as planting distance was decreased. However, the approriate densities for stem and pod weight per a plant, number of pod per a branch and the vegetable soybean yield of 2+3 seed per pod were different from that density. The optimal planting distance of varieties was $60{\sim}25\;cm$ in Sunheukkong and Ilpumgeomjeongkong and was $60{\sim}35\;cm$ in Galmikong.

In order to obtain the basic information on cross breeding of peony, the growth and floral characteristics were investigasted for local collected strains in main cultvation area in Korea. Local peony strains were classified by early emergence lines and late emergence lines according to the emergence date. Flower color of single-petaling flower was varied with red, pink and white, on the other hand, red+red, pink+white, pink+red and pink+pink in double-petaling flower. Number of pistil of the most local peony strains was 3-4/flower, number of stamen was varied from 0 to more than 200 ea/flower, classifing by 4 groups according to the diameter of flower. Most of the cross combinations showed the cross comptibility, and number of follicle was 3-5 ea/flower, average number of seed was 15.6 ea/follicle, seed size was grouped : by small grains with less than 10g, medium grains with 10-15g and large grains with more than 15g of 100 seed weight.

This study was carried out from June 1996 to November 1997 to analyze the growth characteristics of the introduced species revegetated on highway cut-slopes. The number of revegetation measures type surveyed were fourteen such as seed-spraying measures, block-sod pitching measures, and hydro-seeding measures with seed-fertilizer-soil materials. The introduced species for revegetation measures were mostly Festuca arundinancea(cool season grass), Eragrostic curvula(warm season grass), Lolium perenne(cool season grass), Dactylis glomerata(cool season grass), Poa pratensia(cool season grass). The species diversity index of the upper part on highway cut-slopes were greater than that of the middle part and lower part. The growth of introduced species was good on north-facing cut-slope than the others and that was flourish in temperate north forest zone. Also, the introduced species seemed to decrease or disappear, while the ratio of native woody and herb species which were in mature stage seemed to increase.

To verify allelopathic effects of Artemisia princeps var. orientalis, a number of laboratory experiments have been performed. Aqueous extracts of leaves, stems and roots of the above species inhibited the seed germination and seedling growth of experimental species, receptor plants. In general, the higher was the concentration of the extracts, the lower was the germination and the growth ratio. Volatile substances released from leaves of the donor plants also inhibited the seed germination and the radicle elongation of receptor plants. Therefore, to find out the inhibitory substances emitted from the wormwood, gas chromatography was employed. As a result of the analysis, 17 KDICical substances were isolated from the leaves and most of them were identified as phenolic compounds.

The study was conducted to determine the optimal basal media and the concentration of plant growth regulator for germination of seeds and growth of plantlet from Dendrobium monile. The results obtained were summarized as follows. Germination was similar in light and dark condition, but the growth of plantlet after germination was better under dark than under light condition in several media. Germination was best in Hyponex and Kyoto solution medium among the 9 media tested. The number of roots/shoot was most in the Hyponex medium containing 0,1ppm NAA and 1.Oppm BA.

In the present study, we have examined the crossability of four species in the A. jaluense complex to provide additional information on their delimitation and levels of differentiation. Crosses between diploid A. chiisanense and the tetraploid species including A. jaluense s. str., A. triphyllum, and A. pseudoproliferum yielded no fruit- or seed-set, indicating that the former species is reproductively completely isolated from the latter three species. In interspecific crosses between the tetraploid species, combinations involving A. jaluense s. str. resulted in much reduced fruit- and seed-set, indicating that A. jaluense s. str. is more or less reproductively isolated from the other tetraploid species. However, crossing data revealed the absence of reproductive isolation between A. triphyllum and A. pseudoproliferum These results strongly support the relationships that have been previously suggested for the A. jaluense complex on the basis of morphology, chromosome number, and flavonoid chemistry.

The ultrastructure and storage reserves of the Capsicum annuum seeds were studied in order to identify structure and to localize storage components in the endosperm using light microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The seed coat was composed of one cell layer which contained a large number of lipid bodies, while most of the endosperm cells did not showed many lipid bodies. During seed maturation, the endosperm cells were continuously degenerated by the autophagy. Various types of plastids were also distinguished in the endosperm cells. They contained starch grains surrounded by electron-dense tiny particles, plastoglobuli, and vasicular bodies.

This study investigates the relationship between environmental factors, such as semilunar rhythm and atmospheric pressure, and the release of Marphysa sanguinea larvae. During artificial seed production in a temperature-regulated culture system, there was an increase in the number of released larvae at tide times between 3-4 and 9-11. Numbers of larvae released were significantly correlated with tidal rhythms. Atmospheric pressure also appeared to influence larval release, with increased numbers released when a period of high atmospheric pressure followed a period of low pressure.
