Alternaria longissima Deighton & Macgarvie was recorded for the first time on seeds of sesame in low percentages. Detailed descriptions of the habit characters, conidial morphology and cultural characters are described. This fungus, which is generally regarded as a saprophyte, was shown to be a pathogen to sesame plants producing zonate leaf spots, foliage blight, stem necrosis and spots on capsules, but does not show any pathogenicity to rice and sorghum plants.

Seed samples of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) from Chung-nam Provincial Office of Rural Development were infected by 12 fungi. Alternaria sesamicola, A. tenuis and Corynespora cassicola were the predominant fungi. Except C. cassicola, all fungi were almost completly reduced and wipid out the infections by pretreatment with chlorine. Plating of seed components also indicate that C. cassicola was well-established infections. In infection experiment C. cassicola produced severe leaf and stem spots and blights on sesame plants and showed severe seed and seedling rot.

Out of 12 seed samples of Sesamum indicum L. tested, Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi.) Goid was detected in 7 samples for the first time in Korea. Detailed descriptions of the habit character and pycnidial and pycnospore morphology of this fungus were described. Pycnidia of this fungus were not formed on agar media but they were formed on Water Agar Leaf Media under fluorescent light. M. phaseolina caused heavy reduction in seed germination and seedling stand of sesame and produced charcoal rot symptom on potato tubers. It was also detected from over wintered plant debris and diseased seedlings in the field.

A new bacterial disease of sesame(Sesamum indicum) was observed on field-grown plants in Suwon, Hongchun and Yeonchun in 2000. Leaf symptoms initially appeared as water-soaked spots that gradually enlarged, became necrotic and were often bordered by a small zone of lemon yellow tissue. In the case of severe infection, dead leaves were defoliated. Isolations made from diseased leaves on yeast extract dextrose calcium carbonate agar yielded nearly pure cultures of a yellow-pigmented bacterium typical of a xanthomonad. Two bacterial strains were purified and used for farther tests. Pathogenicity of strains was confirmed on 3-week-old sesame plants sprayed with bacterial suspensions containing $10^{8}cfu/ml$ of phosphate buffered saline. The Biolog and fatty acid analyses of the two strains(SL3451 and SL3476) 1mm sesame leaf blight showed that they could be identified as ft campestris pv. sesami because of their high similarity to the tester strain(X. campestris pv. sesami LMG865) with a match probability of $100\%$. The bacterium grew well between 18 and 36$^{\circ}C$, but optimum temperature was $27^{\circ}C$ on LB broth. This is the first report of bacterial blight of sesame in Korea. Symptoms of bacterial blight of sesame are difficult to differentiated with those of bacterial leaf spot caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. sesami.

This study was conducted to ascertain the seed quality of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) under different environmental conditions. The results were summarized as follows; 1. The sesame seeds harvested in the central noethern area of Korea showed higher linoleic acid content than did those in the southern area. 2. The linoleic acid content was highly negatively correlated with the accumulated temperature during maturity (r=-.595) and the correlation coefficient between Linoleic acid content and the accumulated solar radiation during maturity was highly significant (r=.613). Thus, the relative low temperature and high solar radiation during the maturity would be importnat factors for the increase in the linoleic acid content of sesame seeds. 3. The oleic acid content was higher in the southern area than in the central northern area. 4. The oleic acid content was highly correlated with the accumulated temperature (r=.644) and the accumulated solar radiation (r=-.456), respectively. 5. The linoleic and oleic acid are important components of sesame seeds, and these show a relative relationship to determine the oil content of the seeds. 6. The oil quality in the central northern area was superior to that in the southern area.

Incidences of Phytophthora blight in plant of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) were observed in southern sesame production areas, Gochang of Jeonbug, Yeonggwang of Jeonnam, Jinyang of Gyeongnam and Dalseong of Gyeongbug province where disease survy was conducted from July 29 to August 1, 1981. The rate of disease incidence ranged from none to $61\%$ depending upon the field observed. The causal species of the Phytophthora was identified as P. nicotianae var. parasitica (Dastur) Waterhouse based on specific pathogenicity to sesame and morphological characteristics of sporangia. Diseased plants of sesame generally showed dark discoloration on the stem leading to plant death.

This study was conducted to select sesame varieties with high cultural stabilities by comparing several parameters of agronomic traits under the different cultural environments. Of the six areas, Iksan and Jinju areas which showed positively larger environment index values were relatively adequate cultural conditions for sesame. At the comparison of cultural stability of agronomic traits by Eberhart and Russell regression model among sesame breeding lines, Suwon 169 showed more stable regression coefficient values to the number of capsules per plant, number of seeds per capsule and seed weight per plant, and Iksan 12 showed more stable regression coefficient values to culm length and weight per plant. At the comparison of cultural stability of yield per 10a, Suwon 169 and Iksan 12 among sesame breeding lines showed more stable respectively, deviation values of 0.99, 0.98 respectively, and more less regression deviation values of 0.074, 0.167 respectively. Therefore those breeding lines are comparatively higher stabilities to yield determining agronomic traits under the different cultural environments, and it was concluded that those two breeding lines had the possibility to recommend promising breeding lines in the future.

The green manure crops such as rye, hairy vetch and scotch oat were applied to reduce the injury by continuous cropping system(CCS) of sesame(Sesamum indicum L.) cultivation, which manure crops was sowed in latter-September or mid-October and returned to soil in the next year of May. The growth and yields were increased as 33%(65.0kg/10a) in the rotational cropping system(RCS) compared to continuous cropping system of 48.9kg/10a. In the CCS of sesame, it was increased as $10{\sim}15%$ in the green manure crop cultivation, and rye cultivation was the most effective crop to reduce the injury of continuous cropping in the green manure crops. The RCS displayed lower disease outbreak and Fussarium oxysporum density in the soil compared with the CCS, and the green manure crop showed good effect in the CCS of sesame. In the RCS, the porosity was most high in the RCS and CCS of rye cultivation, while rye and hairy vetch was effective way to reduce the injury of continuous cropping. The outbreaks of wilt disease and phytophthora blight were increased as the CCS years, however displayed lowest outbreaks of disease and the yields showed highest in the rye cultivation.

To increase the utilization of farming lard and the income of farmers four cropping systems by introducing two crops in the cultivation of sesame and perilla were tested from May, 2001 to June, 2002. Weed occurrence was observed abunantly at the in barley＋sesame cropping system. Among cropping systems, weed in barley+sesame was greater in post-crop than in pre-crop, but other cropping systems were in pre-crop. Pre- or post-crops at the barley＋sesame, sesame+chinese cabbage showed good growth. The income of cropping system containing sesame was higher 21％ and 61％ in barley＋sesame and sesame＋chinese cabbage, than in sesame and perilla mono-crop systems respectively. The sesame＋chinese cabbage was labor-saying and cost down cropping system, because polyethylene film of pre-crop was reused in post-crop. But when perilla was introduced as post-crop of sesame, the delayed seed time resulted in decreased growth and grain yield. Soil physical properties were improved at the sesame＋chinese cabbage and barley＋sesame cropping systems.

This study was conducted to obtain basic informations on the lignan components from sesame seed. Two major lignans, sesamin and sesamolin, were isolated and identified by means of spectral methods, and quantitative analysis was by HPLC from sesame variety Danbaeggae. Separation was achieved by isocratic elution and reversed phase chromatography Develosil ODS column. The content of the major lignan components were about 0.42% and 0.30% for sesamin and sesamolin, respectively.
